After a late war game I thought some early actions in the Poland 39 campaign would be in order for a September IABSM game.? I stole this scenario directly from Rob Avery's excellent Vis Lardica

Getting around to editing some games played this Summer? This is another older game from our GB Historical Day event I am a great fan of the 'Wargaming the Sugar Islands Campaign" booklet by Stuart

Another 6mm IABSM game played last month at Gigabites Cafe was a action during the Seelow Heights campaign.? Elements of the 26th Fallschirmjager and 2/8 Panzerabteilung hold off the 220th Tank

This was a 20mm Chain of Command game played last month that was based on the Aussie following up the Japanese retreat after their failed assault on the Milne Bay airfields, early? September 42.? It

The battalion could also fire a pattern equal to XXX or X X X with each having a +1 but only rolling x1 per targets in the artillery templates. It does cover more ground. British guns in WW2 had 2x4

Good ideas, Michael..!? ?Some of the descriptions of American artillery beating back panzers at Losheim, Rocherath, etc. in northern Bulge often refer to specific Arty battalions.

Thanks, John! That did seem excessive especially after just one barrage..

I might suggest that the lowest barrage class have no modifiers. 50-60mm could take out open topped vehicles but tanks were relatively safe. The modifiers are cumulative? If not then I

Hi Dan, No, it’s just 2 Shock plus any damage from rolling on the 2 net hits table. It’s repeating the preamble in the top line of that part of the Tank damage table. Otherwise even Average morale

Thanks for the feedback everyone. Points all well taken. I may make a minor tweak depending upon weight of shells of the barrage. i.e. 50mm-60mm = no big deal, 75mm - 100mm = threatening, 100mm -

Tiger I top armour: 25-40 mm. PzII top armour: 10 mm. But don’t let the numbers fool you…when artillery hits your area you wanna leave. Trust me. As in “let’s just get the Hell out.

I think we've all seen pictures of tanks including Tigers on their side or upside down. I've always assumed that's a blast effect from large artillery or air attack. A naval bombardment is really

Just as an aside. Even the heaviest tanks have less armour on top as they are primarily designed to defeat frontal attacks. IIRC high explosive artillery shells frequently killed tanks: remember the

Hi Dan, I wouldn’t interpret the rule on tank crews bailing out when caught in a bombardment literally. Section 5.3 on Shock on AFVs is dealing with the majority of cases in the game were AFVs are

hi Dan You could make a scenario rule that tanks will retire off table instead of bailing if they have too much shock. If it worries you about artillery having the same effect on the different tanks,

Just got down playing a scenario from Sicily IABSM book. Scenario played fairly and as expected and as was the case historically, the US naval artillery played a key role in breaking up an attack by

Well if you do go for the Duke’s First War of Independence range then having a few gentlemen from Peshawar and beyond will not go amiss. 1857 is not somewhere I need or want to go anymore, but the

On the first point, I don't believe the 'sacrificing the benefit of cover' in the FAQ means you can choose to put a JOP on the table edge if cover is available from that patrol marker - if there is

Yep. What he said. Regards Doug Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg> ________________________________ Sent: Monday, August 23, 2021 7:30:41 AM To: [email protected]

The sacrificing of cover refers, I believe, to the fact that you are forced to place your JOP on the table edge due to a lack of it. It is not presenting a new rule whereby troops deploying from a JOP
