Re: Converting images for A&A Mini Modules

Here’s a good idea, buy a starter set so you can get maps and counters.  Download and print the revised cards (most of the cards that come with the minis have been revised).  Print the current rules and give it a shot without using any actual units.  Gameplay is 1 hour time limit… at least you’ll get a couple of games played in one night.

You are my hero, thank you very much

Armchair Generals,

Well, it only took me 8 months, but the new (and I hope) improved Historic Battlefronts Website is now up!!!

GAZALA 1942 Pre-Ordering!

We are accepting Pre-orders for GAZALA 1942. The release date is set for 20 July. What’s the deal? 3 maps for the price of 2 and save an extra $1USD to boot! The catch? It’s only available if you purchase it through PayPal.

Anyway, I’m sure that you’ll all want to see what it looks like up close, so check out the link below and then navigate to the “Photo Gallery” in the bottom right corner…

That’s all for now.

I see your point too,
but damn that’s a really cool feature that gives AT guns a real purpose in this game.

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.

There are definitely things aspects about the game that are not perfect. But I think the positives outweigh the negatives.

Compared to other games like it, it’s cheaper, it has a nice rule system, it is customizeable, and games can be as short or as long as you want them

@Der:

T-70s are the Russians’ ultimate weapon.

As a man who plays the Russians himself, all I can say is……hell yes mofo.  :-P

@Ubermarine:

The Polish Calvalryman is a nice touch to the game.  Thay will be easy to use in groups of 3 or 4 against soldiers.  Im thinking the best way to use them will be to hide and rush machine gun nests.

Not just machine gun nests but also for going after BAR Gunners, anti-tank guns, and commanders. But I really don’t think you need more than 1 or 2 to accomplish this. It is very easy for the cavalry out of line of sight.
