I don’t know about this. Heavy bombers flew at high altitudes and could not make attacks in such close proximity to friedly troops on a map of this scale I would think. I could see them attacking one half of the board and hitting randomly a string of around 4 hexes.

I will say ad the owner of a substantial German Army, the rules for the Stuka were disappointing with that planes power and ability to make precsion attacks. The damage done according to the stats is not a fair representation of what that plane could do. Should have been a rule about intimidation with the plane. Especially the Ju-87’s that used the siren of Jericho.

@panzerkampfwagen:

It comes out November 11th.

MechanizedWarfare the russians didnt have an operational halftrack until after the war(Even then it was a US M3 halftrack). There was one experimental Halftrack the BA-30, but it was never adopted for mass production or service.

Yea I know, I was hoping they would let the Ruskies use the US M3 halftrack as a Russian unit.

Well, that’s almost 2 successes. Good job. The SEs are definitely better but the Defiants are still good substitutes.

What I believe you can do w/ the hero is when you land the paratroopers, place the hero w/ one of them. Since he deploys at the beginning of the movement phase and not the end like the SEs, he should be able to move right away. Therefore, if you place a SE behind the Vet Tiger, you should be able to place the hero in the hex next to the Tiger’s rear and hopefully either move into the Tiger’s hex on the attack or force the Tiger to move. If you’ve managed to surround the Tiger decently, preferrably around forest or hills, he will be in trouble.

Of course you should try to coordinate this w/ an attack from another tank.

You might also recall that there is a 15 unit limit, which helps somewhat against infantry.

SS-Panzergrenadiers, MG 42s, sIG/Brummbars are all useful.
