I have written a scenario for the game I'm working on now, but I like the idea of using the Total War rules (particuarly taking all the support units into a seperate group). The changes to company moral would make it a tougher longer lasting fight and therefore a much more enjoyable.

We have done both in 15mm desert adn they work great. What doesn't (IMHO) is just upping the forces and playing 'standard' games.<br /><br />LeighLeighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08627291385667015252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1298399641711237003.post-56151673383545960962013-10-21T15:18:17.279+01:002013-10-21T15:18:17.279+01:00I've found the positive effect of scale drop e...I've found the positive effect of scale drop elsewhere too - we did this in Bolt Action (playing with 15mm instead of 28mm), and again, the ranges "feel" better. <br /><br />Looks great, btw.<br /><br />FMBfireymonkeyboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05833974263127787678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1298399641711237003.post-47051490476452094362013-10-21T14:36:19.572+01:002013-10-21T14:36:19.572+01:00I spoke with postie yesterday about scheduling a d...I spoke with postie yesterday about scheduling a date for the game. I'm nearly ready. All the mini's are painted, I have most of the terrain done (still missing some stuff from the US but I'm told it'll be dispathced this week) and I have all the tokens and markers that I need. So between now and the game I'm just reading rules, playtesting and maybe making some non essential terrain items purely for Asthetic effect.BigLeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00960213980906190335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1298399641711237003.post-86221918525294824882013-10-21T14:14:59.094+01:002013-10-21T14:14:59.094+01:00The one thing that put me off FOW was the tank par...The one thing that put me off FOW was the tank park layout. Been thinking of downscaling to 1/300 now the new supplement for the 6 day war is out. Will try as you suggested for ranges/distances etc. Carl https://www.blogger.com/profile/16276342560412590861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1298399641711237003.post-88181619886103967142013-10-21T12:06:47.322+01:002013-10-21T12:06:47.322+01:00Probably a good idea, that's what me and Richa...Probably a good idea, that's what me and Richard did with BLB2, we kept the 25mm movement for 15's. It just worked better and saved a whole lotta hassle!!!! Nice pics by the way, I'm looking forward to the game!Ray Rousellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07352596392520905197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1298399641711237003.post-66333314655044322882013-10-21T11:11:25.992+01:002013-10-21T11:11:25.992+01:00Sorry Jim, accidentally hit the 'Remove Commen...Sorry Jim, accidentally hit the <i>'Remove Comment'</i> button instead or <i>'Reply'</i> and I can't undo my mistake!!! Your right though, the Tank Park effect is much reduced by scaling down the models. Artillery would play havoc with anyone fool enough to bunch up their tanks at this scale.BigLeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00960213980906190335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1298399641711237003.post-24828565215538705182013-10-21T11:08:07.298+01:002013-10-21T11:08:07.298+01:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
