Just some questions

They come pre-painted and ready to rock but feel free to paint away. All expansion pieces come painted as well. Easy game to learn but made to play as a stand alone game, not recomended for the board games. Although you can use the infantry pieces.

No worries, ask as many questions as you wish. :-D

After a consult with my friend who has a deeper understanding of the rules than myself here are your answers:

1. If unit fails movement roll it is done with it’s phase.

2. If unit is disrupted it is done with it’s phase.

3. If the commander goes first and is disrupted the rest cannot banzai/angriff as disrupted commanders lose their SA. So I would send him last.

Yes. It was a player request to have actual unit photos for easy mini identification. There are all updated and ready to play.  The dbase is also good for doing builds as you can set a nation and year restriction and view all the available units on one page. Glad you are enjoying the dbase.

Feel free to ask questions when you have them.

I saw your post sitting so long I registered to give you a few pointers on maps. Most if not all the WotC map packs are themed in some way. Originally they were 2" hexes but were changed some time ago. The map packs you mentioned are themed as follows: North Africa - 3 Desert maps and on reverse side 3 jungle maps. Eastern Front - 3 town/factory maps and on the reverse side 3 Russian steppes maps. There are two starters, the one in the cardboard box is the old one and contains 12mm mini’s and 2" hex maps. the new starter is in a blister pack and has 15mm mini’s and 3" hex maps. The maps in the new starter are mixed forest/hills/clear. The rules and revised cards are downloadable through the WotC site.

Well, as long as you know the rules it really only matters that your opponent agrees with you.  I take liberties with the rules all the time.  I used to deploy in the first two with the old maps, because I like the “movement to fire” part of the game.

He means that the US Hero can keep using the destroyed tank’s attack values turn after turn, until he leaves the hex.

The tank is destroyed and can be removed from play (though I suppose you can get cute and lay it on it’s side with the US Hero on top just for the visual effect and as a reminder what vehicle stats to use :-D)

@MechanizedWarfare:

lol no need for anyone to get all ansy in their pantsy.

yes i agree i was kidding. but congrats to your son for winning his first game.  :-)

Well the rules do spell it out well on what you can do and can expect with the Banzai Charge
