Best/Worst Pulls?

Agreed.  The correctly-costed one doesnt have the ribbon.

Unfortunately there are several errors/typos in the new cards.

It looks like the 7pt one has the ribbon?

I’m thinking they are opening pandoras box.

Yes, you used to be able to bump an isolated infantry every now and then, but it was easy to fugure out.

If you wait until the end of the turn it will a nightmare to manage.

As you said, you move 2 Inf into a hax that already conatins two inf.  The two original Inf now try charge forward in an MG and get disrupted so they cannot move.  But its the end of the turn and you’ve moved a dozen units.  Now what, you have to “unmove” the first two Inf that you moved to fix the overstack, hoping you remember which hexes they came from?

It gets insanely worse with vehicles.

No, that will break the game.  They’ve done some odd things in the past, but this will break the game.

I have to beileve that the rule will be different than we are guessing.  Something like, any unit that is overstacked cannot Attack.  So you can overstack all you want, but if you dont resolve it by the end of the turn then that unit is pretty much a hood ornament.  Or something equally different.

Thanks for the heads up, we’ll all have to keep our eyes peeled.

AAR for the 1939 100pt force
After all the replies I got I decided to switch and go with a mixed anglo-french force :-(

1 Spitfire
1 Char B
1 Souma
1 Bofor
1 royal engineer
1 observer
1 bren gunner
1 french officer
2 Mas rifle men
1 Liebel Grenadier
1 tank obstical

it was a small turnout (something about a soccer game)
4 armies showed up
2 German (built around the Pzgf IV elites)
My sons French army (1 Char B, 1 Souma, 2 Renaults, 2 Bofor’s and misc. French inf.)
And mine
After the dust settled my son came in 1’st (winning all 3 games), the Germans came in 2’nd and 3’rd and my force came in last (being defeated by all 3 armies)

Next time its 1940 and 100 pts

yea ooops.  it was suppose to read.  “WHY would you when you have those other units”.  sorry for the confusion

I guess my challenge would be getting used to those maps again.

I was thinking of lettered columns and numbered rows, like battleship. Use the facing as described above. Counting movements should not be a prob. I think a code chart for unit shorthand would be wise too, to speed the play.

@killercelery:

I finally made my choice.  I’ll keep my units in ziploc bags, but I’ll transport them in a used ammo box.

thats what  i do to, it works. why make it more complicated, i dont need to look like some mafia sniper carrying a big long black box around. allthough i do use a WWII ammo can, not my Nam ones. :wink:
