Im using the vickers Machine GUn team + Fanatical Sniper when correctly placed will be a killer combo against infantry.

I’ve been playing for a while now and we usually play with 4maps 125 pts army. They say that each games should last 1hr to 1 1/2 hrs but ours usually go for 2hrs+. I would like to know how long does your game last and how do you play them.

Already played a 250pts 6 maps game – 3hrs…

@argarus:

i don’t think spotters die too easily.  yea the FO jeep just blows cause it can’t move during assult.  but the red army FO.  put him on the back of a T34 and just run around.  it actually works quite well, you can outrun just about everything the axis player will send your way

If its on the back of a transport can the Spotter still spot or do you have to drop it first?

Heres the deal. Its my 3rd consecutive defeat against my friend who plays the axis. Here is his starting lineup (he doesnt really vary)

1 x SS-Panzer IV Ausf. F2
1 x StuG III Ausf D
1 x Wehrmacht Expert Sniper
2 x SS-Haupsturmführer
2 x SS-Panzergrenadier
2 x MG 42 Machine-Gun Team
1 x Luftwaffe Infantrymen
1 x Panzerschreck
1 x Imperial SNiper
1 x SnLF Paratrooper

Any Ideas to Kick his butt out of the game ???

I got lots of other units for the allies within set 1,2 and 3 So any ideas that would give me a flawless victory is welcome. Thx!!

yeah it did. 2nd part. We always played that if a unit was on a transport it could be targeting. So now im going to have the advantage thx!!!

Ive check but didnt find…does a Units boarding a transport has cover or can it be attackd in the first place…

im going with the easy eight. Its heavy rought and almost instopable. I know it cost 56 pts but when you play 150-200 pts army its a must to have!! Ive play’d it a couple of times and it never got killed and if you combine it with 2 shermans or a Kv-1 you can cover one flank with on aditional infantry or machine gun and surround the enemy on the other flank

@Malachite:

That lost battalion game says it uses 3" hexes, but I guess it can’t hurt having larger hexes.  Battlecry is a civil war boardgame that utilizes the 2" hex board and terrain hexes, but the Memoir 44 system seems to be the best buy when you consider how much you get for the price.  It also includes hedgerow terrain pieces that I’m not sure how to incorporate into the game yet, other than treat them as wooded hexes.Â

I have the game but im thinking that the map would be to small as i had to buy another stater set to get myself another set of maps so that i could play bigger armies. Have you tried it yourself are just proposing to use the same idea for aa mini’S?

Subject says it how do you unfold your maps so that they don’t get bumpy and becomes perfectly flat?? I tried to put them 2days + under heavy books but there are still some elevations where they were originally folded…plz help!!

no spitfires??
