Dear All, Forgive the inevitable cross-posting as there are now four 6mm groups on Yahoo... Lots of bits of news for you. The entire Baccus site has been...
Wow, an absolutely blinding job! the operation looks really pro now...though its comforting to know its all still being done by a friendly bloke from somewhere...
Peter, Nice re-model! I did not that under the Russian Napoleonics some of the pics don't match the item being viewed. For example, the foot artillery pulled...
Hi Peter, The site does indeed look very nice on Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, I was not able to access it using Netscape's browser, although it. Just...
I would be willing to say that very few 1:1 scale games can adequately represent the chaos, lack of knowledge, lack of control, and slowness of combat...
... Absolutely! Interviews with soldiers involved in night battles in Italy (Santa Maria Infante) showed that they didn't know 1) where they were; 2) where the...
In Combat Commander, we double the time period of a turn for night, and require additional PIPs to be spent moving things. It makes night fighting hell, and...
... Thanks :) Just go with the Byzantines, though, mine is using their own good time to come along. Basically I wanted to explore the look of DBM Bw(X),...
... Great site. Congrats :) ... *Thanks Loads*! Looking forward to be using them. And, of course, the samurai... Regards, Arnstein ... Arnstein Orten...
Getting them to function in daylight is hard enough. My Late Germans don't find that darkness is long enough, 5 turns of freedom from airpower and artillery is...
Well, I was looking at a selection of eastern armies from around 1400, and looking for a figure for the Ottoman heavy cavalry. I'm planning on using a mix of...
Rhys -- Since you're using H&R figures, have you considered the Polish Hussars, with the wings clipped, for some of the East European cavalry? Personally, I'm...
Although it has been said many times, and is practically a wargaming cliche: the most fun wargames are rarely super-realistic, and the super-realistic wargames...
This is why after more than twenty years Steve Jackson's "Ogre" is still one of my all time favorite wargames, and probably the one I play the most. The new...
... I think that being "super-realistic" may be confused with "super- detailed". But anyway, I get your drift...too many rules make the game slow. I do know...
... That's great that it is that much fun. Ages ago I enjoyed a game called "Panzer" by Yaquinto. I thought it was great. I played a game of it not too long...
I've actually been messing around with the idea of making miniature golf holes...not sure about 1/300 though. Was thinking more like 1/3600 or so. Not that...
... 12 "Golden ... Isn't the 12th at Augusta about 155 yards? That would make it about 18 inches from tee to center of green...the whole thing should be about...
... It seems to me that by 2/45 that the Germans only attacked in strength at night, at least on the eastern front. So much for long ranged superiority. It...
Hi, some of you might be interested to see 6mm minis in standard 400AP DBM comp situations: http://folk.uio.no/arnsteio/minicon2003/ We also did Gaugamela in...
Dear WW Be very careful with activation rolls and other things that take away from the player, after all the player is there to PLAY not just to spectate. In...
... You're right about defining time any way you want. Actually, in Panzer War, the duration of battles is perfect, because in the intro, the game turn is...
... Oh, yeah...I almost forgot...If the troops are rubish, just give 'em more rubish! ;-) Actually, in that way, each player gets to use enough stuff to keep...
In Combat Commander, a lack of PIPs does not stop things, but it slows things down, and stops you tying in lots of support fire. It means that the HQ might...
Starguard, well over 30 years old (approaching 40 soon IIRC) and only in edition 5.0 but fun. But it IS Science Fiction.... Gracias, Glenn On Wed, 2 Apr 2003...
