I just ran a game based on raiding Tarnak Farm, which is located about 5 miles east of Kandahar. I would recommend that you lengthen the firing ranges. I...
Lengthen the ranges? Normal firearms have no maximum range in Ambush Alley. If you can see it, you can shoot it. Do you mean you think Optimum ranges should be...
Yes. The ranges become fairly long, so we lengthened the optimum ranges. We also had one US sniper with an M107 .50. Plus, I had set up the game as a...

Ah! That makes sense then. A lot of folks confuse "optimum range" with "maximum range." Just wanted to make sure that wasn't happening here. -- Doyle Shawn...
A bit late posting, but I ran 3 games at FIASCO last Sunday, with good feedback from players and spectators alike. Several people took up the details to...
thanks for the advice, and i just got that new compound from britannia miniatures. did you do a write up on your game? and were did you get your info for that...
Phil, I recently read "Ghost Wars" which details the search for bin Laden before 9/11 when he was considered more of a money man than an operator. That is...

So, while AA, DotR and MP are printing out... :) I'm going to be doing AA in 28mm - that's what I've got most of, and 15mm, while very neat, is just a bit...
How are you going to do the "fig is where the fig is" within the Ambush Z concept? From: AmbushAlley@yahoogroups.com [mailto:AmbushAlley@yahoogroups.com] On ...
Just off the top of my head, I'd say give each figure the sort of Firepower you think they should have - possibly equal to or in excess of a squad's, based on...
Good question - I'm not familiar with the Ambush Z concept versus the AA concept; I don't own Ambush Z (do the rules differ from AA?). I should clarify. One of...
It'll work fine that way, Noah. We do it the way we do it to save time and further emphasize that the game is unit based rather than figure based, but doing it...
Yeah, that sounds pretty good. I'm going to go through MP and DotR with a fine comb and see what kind of rule and vehicle-design goodness I can find. The fluff...
Really, the major differences lay in the rules for zombies, the background fluff, and the ORBATS for civvies and such. ... -- Doyle Shawn Carpenter Ambush...
Force on Force, which is a ruleset covering "Regular vs. Regular" combat will be out by the end of the year, knock wood. That should help. And of course we...
Do close assault weapons (and handguns, for that matter) add one extra die to the Firepower total if *all* the troops are equipped with them, or is it one...
I know that, at least officially, flamethrowers aren't in the US inventory, but as I've got figs with all varieties of flame weapons (vehicle, backpack, rifle...
We've thought about it, but haven't settled on anything. We are discussing having them throw a boatload of dice OR simply kill everything in give radius. ...
I'm biased, of course, but I think you're going to like them! ... -- Doyle Shawn Carpenter Ambush Alley Games: www.ambushalleygames.com dscarpenter@......
