So… is this board basically dead? I mean D-day was about 5 sets ago. Anyone really around here anymore, or has everyone gone to the Forumini and Underground?
this post is dead and buried. Most people go to formini now. Much more traffic.

Hey Audacity, maybe you should consider the “Play By Email” option for A&AM here on this forum. True, a 100 point game can take a week or two to play, but I enjoy the pace and the ability to do a well thought out turn in a day or two. Plus, its a great way to experiment with different force builds.
Polish Infantrymen are nice and solid. I’m glad that they finally get some infantry AND they’re not the vanilla SMLE variant.
The Turan I is nice, if for no other reason than it’s a minor nation tank that’s only uncommon. Statwise it’s alright, with decent speed, but wear rear armour. Not sure it’s much better than a Romanian tank for 2 less points.
Alright what about a
Brummbar
or Jagdtiger
i have alot of machine gun teams and snipers who prove very useful
especially when i disrut there armor then kill them with my pak 40’s
Excellent question. I do not have any historical evidence of widespread tank vs. tank ramming, and I don’t really expect that it went on. I included the rule more for sake of gameplay with non-armored vehicles (jeeps, halftracks, etc.) The rule represents a sort of last ditch option available to a player with nothing left but jeeps who is trying to face down a tank. I’ve people ask to be able to ram on a number of occasions, so I decided to come up with a rule for it. The attack itself is pretty anemic (need 6’s to hit) so I can’t think of why a tank would ever choose to ram another vehicle instead of using it’s short/medium range armor attack roll instead. Now a jeep, on the other hand, really wouldn’t have any other attack against a light tank. With the ram you might be able to damage a tank, but you are certainly going to destroy your jeep trying. Let me know if you end up using the rule and if it works for you or not.
