More 1940 Germans units available to combat the French horde

I got it

Commander Pnzr 45 pnts
Vet Tiger          65 pnts
Ammo Depot      10 pnts
Mauser              3 pnts
Fortress Defendr  2 pnts

Total 125

While attacking a disrupted unit w/Vet Tiger, all dice would count, “one’s” get reroled and you have another approx 85% success of hitting.  All total it’s over 90% success ratio.  Almost always a hit and Vet Tiger throws alot of dice.

Replace Vet Tiger with 3X elite pnzr and it’s another killer army.  You can add 11 pnts more of infantry… another 3X mauser + another Fortress Defendr

This is the kind of thing that would make me want to try eBay.

The Fallschirmjager Veteran is able to move when disrupted.

In a way, its the opposite of Hard Charger.  Recall that Hard Charger clears the disrupt at the END of the move phase which means a disrupted SE Paratrooper is pinned.

Still, I’m disappointed.  For 10 points I was really hoping something cool.

I haven’t followed all the re-direction of AAM marketing, shake-ups, transition of staff at Wizards, but it seems to me AAM has been relegated to the category of “out of print” and to be played only by an underground cult of die-hard fans. The only place I can seem to get an AAM game in is on this forum via PBEM.

Maybe the release of the Northa Africa sets will sell well enough to make Wizards reconsider resurrecting the Combat Zone program.

Well, I think my group is going to modify the stacking limits spesificly for the purpose of getting two Inf into a halftrack.  I think we will go with 3units per side one vehicle max.  It might get crowded, if it does I’ll make a map with bigger hexes.

I like the Puma too, but it’s a little overpriced.

The Hetzer actually seems to have a good price; it’s not paying the standard extra points for being German like the Panzer IV G had to.

So back to the German/Chinese issue.

I read the Set II Checklist again and it specifically points out that giving a Chinese army the sdkfz 222 is for scenario play. I think this is just a general rule of thumb for scenarios: if country X had unit Y but unit Y belongs to country Z, just use it in your scenario as country X anyway.

That’s the beauty of this game.

I’m going to start a new thread about Sino-German relations.

I intend to use the Jap 47mm ATguns as Russian 45mm AT guns until they release a Russian AT gun unit. Also The UK AT gun can substitute for the US 57mm AT gun. Shermans and Lees can be used by both the UK and Russians as they were Lend-Lease items.
