RE: FRONTLINE NEWS (Winter 2006-7) is here!

Im sure I’ll run into some things but that is it for now.  Thanks for your help.

I’m really enjoying playing the miniatures game.

not to my knowledge. there are units in war at Sea that units can split their main gunnery, but u cant stack units to get more attack dice. all units roll independently

I just saw that WotC re-updated the revised rules, and released revised stat cards for all sets.

I applaud them, especially on the quick work to create the revised stats for Eastern Front.

Now onto the interesting part…

The must discussed new stacking rules have been tweaked!  If you overstack a unit, it receives a face-down hit marker at the end of the Move and/or Assualt phases.

You may not overstack a hex by more than one unit, uncluding during a move-through.  (This fixes the issue of, say, hitting a landmine and getting stuck in a hex that is already overstacked).

A ramification of this is, as I see it, a shift in balance from single Heavy tanks to more smaller tanks.

FRONTLINE NEWS

The next issue of FRONTLINE NEWS will be released on 1 September. If you want to be added to the mailing list (it’s free, duh!) be sure to send us an email at: sales@hbfronts.com If anyone is interested in writing an article or creating a scenario for this issue, we’d love to hear from you.

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.

Actually, DL, you make a good point there.  I just tend to at least hear people out when it comes to “rumor-mill” type news.  I was just trying to see if anyone else had heard the same thing.

Oh, and good job on calling my Big Lebowski reference, dezrtfish.  :wink:

It seems there is not much discussion around HBFRONTS. So, please write all of you annoucenments about HBFRONTS and FRONTLINE NEWS in this thread topic.
