Thanks Keith for the clarification. When I first read it, I thought I had been playing it wrong. Do any of you use the optional -1 modifier rule for trenches?...
Bill - A lot of factors go into building a trench... is there time? Are you being harrassed or attacked all the time? Did your lines move during a retreat- All...
What variability is there in building a trench? Pick up an axe, pick up a shovel and dig. I once played a game of B2B as the Axis, where the Allied player ...
Keith, I'm kinda glad you mentioned the Civil War and the Campaign of 1864 because it pretty much confirms what I have been saying. Grant was moving south and...
Seth, If it makes you feel better, I had very lousy entrenching roll when I played Friday night. It took about 4 rolls to entrench Sedan and another 3 for...

Seth - You are tenacious.... I suppose if you could get away with 3 foot trenches with no overhead protection in WWI you could build a line of trenches in a...
It's like playing craps. The house always wins. ... From: jeff.schulte@... To: JerseyGamers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Mon, 02 May 2005 14:59:54 +0000 Subject:...
Alright, three feet deep and no head protection? Assuming that is correct and we exclude the bunkers because I assume that would be a "Level 2" trench, we are...
My view is this. You can take any rule in isolation and pick it apart. For me, the rule in the context of the full game works. It has the right feel for me,...
"I've become tiresome of this conversation." I think you mean to say that the conversation has become tiresome - not that you have become tiresome. I have more...
Why have an odds chart?? You could just come up with some ratio of attacker vs defender based on actual numbers then just resolve the attack... most attacks in...
Guys, Please take note of the convention below. I think it might be of interest to some of you, particularly those of you who like Euro-style games. If...
Damn it. All of this talk about PoG piqued my curiosity and I went down to the basement to dig out my old copy (which I never was able to play before). Of...
Kkeith, POG sounds good to me. Ed ... From: Keith MacFarland <keith3196@...> To: JerseyGamers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thu, 05 May 2005 05:06:15 -0000 ...
Ed, I'm going to bring the McCartlin stuff for the evening. Chris ... From: bielcik@... To: JerseyGamers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, May 05, 2005...
I played POG (albeit incorrectly) with Ed O'Connor and Seth and Lew played POG... there were two other games going on when I was there but we were scattered...
Jeff, In addition to the two PoG's, Jay, Joe and Matt played Dinosaurs of the Lost World, and Fred had a 4-player Kutusov going. Jay, Joe Matt and Chris later...
Yes, Ed and Keith played the flanking rule in such a way that if the attacker failed his flank attack attempt, the defender was not given the opportunity to...
In the meantime, my POG addiction needs a serious fix. Somebody please play with me online. ... From: SGunar@... To: JerseyGamers@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
Sounds like we had a good meeting then. Great! Just a reminder that the next meeting is on Sunday 5/22 ... Jeff, In addition to the two PoG's, Jay, Joe and...
Yes, it was a good meeting, if you're talking about attendance, and numbers and variety of games played. But it was mildly annoying to have to stand around...
