New maps?

@Motdc:

The starter is not meant, unfortunately, to be a stand-alone game.  You must buy at least a few more booster packs to get a good mix of units to mix-n-match a decent army together.

That’s exactly it. You’ll need probably 4 or more boosters to make the starter actually enjoyable. Anything less than 100 point battles just aren’t fun.

BTW I have to say that Gazala map is awesome and looks like it has a lot of posibilities.  Are yo ugoing to put out scenarios for it?

After some time (about two months) there’s a new scenario!!! YEAH, but w/out PDF.  I just can’t understand why they couldn’t take the extra time to put it on a PDF.  It makes it so much visually better.

A case of starters? Ok…

The original starter is comparable to two boosters - you get one less rare but IIRC you get a higher number of uncommons, though everything but the rare is fixed. In the new starters… well they’re literally just two boosters.

While it’s true that most of the WotC maps are on grass, not all of them are. Additionally many players have made their own custom desert maps, and I’m helping to work on a winter one (for Battle of the Bulge)

Though I like the grizzled veteran, it is the inspiring hero who has captured my heart.  The last two games I have played with the British I have used the Inspiring Hero in conjuction with 2 piat gunners by themselves in adjacent hexes.  I wait for the Germans to get close- then chaos erupts as I drop my Hero in with my PIATs and they skip forward and stop any armor column dead in it’s tracks.  In each game I have destroyed three tanks, the last one I destroyed a Elite Panzer III, a Puma, and a Panzer IV.  I love PIAT gunners now.

The rest of Sols minis came today, and we started playing.  It was kinda diffilcult to understand at first, but after awhile it was easy.  We played 2 matches in which I lost both.  :lol: I had a good setup, it was just the way I commanded my units that made me lose.  Oh well, I learned from my mistakes.  Anyways, he got some pretty good rare pieces, which I think he will post later.  :wink:

Usually they provide their maps for download.
