Hi guys I live in gloucestershire and was wondering if there were any informal Rapid Fire groups in the area? If not is anyone interested in starting one up? ...
I live mile away I'm afraid in Cambridgeshire and I don't drive. However, I putting on a BIG pacific war game in a hall near Newmarket in September if you're...
Neil, Â the game is an historical one, which is a first for me, an island assault but I'm not saying which one. The US have a scale division, that's 3...
Hi all. I am trying to build a Greek army to fight the 1940 Campaign and I cant find any information about the colour of their equipment (artillery, heavy...
All, Colin's latest book now available: Guide to the North African Campaign February - June 1941 A new 40 page full colour book covering Rommel's arrival in...
All, what figures are suitable as early war Greeks ?? I need 2-3 battalions for my Crete games later this year. Also what colour were allied vehicles in...
For Greek figures I think you have a limited option, FAA or Lancashire Games, there may be a combined Greek and German/ Crete set from Valiant figures towards...
Mark, Thanks for the pictures of your PTO game, dated 3-14-09. Most enjoyable. I see a Japanese 6 wheel A/C in the village picture. Where did you find it, or...
Not necessarily so. At p43 of 'Taming the Panzers' by Patrick Delaforce, he quotes a member of 3RTR as saying that before embarking for Greece, all the 3 RTR...
I’m not sure I’m 100% convinced that an armoured regiment went to Greece with Green Tanks, in effect we are only looking at 2 Regiments, the 3RTR and the...
Simon, you may well be right - While I haven't read Close, I've never seen photos of what look like green tanks in Greece either - more research needed. I...
... Hi, Mark AFAK there are no specific 15 mm greek figures. There is a pseudo-Falcon Miniatures website offering them, but I tried to contact it several times...
In preparation for running a scenario at Recon (www.hmgs-south.com) this coming weekend I was once again reviewing the rules and running into the same problems...
Can I have the views of others on the correct interpretation of 13.1? Members of my group think that panzer grenadiers add 2 to the random die roll; I think...
Hi, It definitely says to "add 1 to the FIRE EFFECT D6 THROWS..." i.e. calculate fire factors as per normal 6 regular figures at short range = 6 + 2 = 8 fire...
I am thinking of keeping it simple in the spirit of the rules overall. In reality an OP would adjust fire until on target and then call for fire for effect....
Thank you, Mark. However, I'm not convinced that this is what is meant because "small arms firing groups" are clearly part of the terminology of the rules...
To some extent I agree with what you are saying here in that it seems odd that two batteries of a 3-battery bn get auto hits during the first turn of fire if...
Paul; Thanks for the input and appreciate your opinion but it really doesnt seem to hold up. This isnt two guns firing and hitting but 10. Further max...
I have an issue with RF Artillery in general, in that it is DBA, (not De Bellis Antiquitatis....), Death By Artillery. To me and many gamers whom I game RF...
Hi all  I recently bought a book at a second hand shop and discovered that pages 27 – 30 were missing. The book is:  Panzerjager: German Anti-tank...
To me all these changes to such a fundamental part of the rules would be just too much. I don't find the HE rules too devastating at all. Last night I played a...
Stationary targets are more vulnerable for sure, and emplacing units does give a lot greater protection, but we do find artillery just too much in game terms. ...
All, as always a solemn day for remembering all the fallen service men from Australia and New Zealand in the countles wars that our two countries have fought...
... "To me and many gamers whom I game RF with it is just to effective, in game terms. ..." John, I think this is the point that really matters. Arty and...
Excellent info........many thanx. However the point for us is the balance between realism and playability. It might be more realistic to have arty in it's...
Flamethrowers: What do people think of these? I would suggest the ranges are optimistic and would go for 3" portable and 6" vehicle mounted. Too good in...
