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...
We've gone the other way, increasing PzSchr/Bazooka/PzF/PIAT to 9", to give inf more firepower against tanks. Might yet increase PzSchr/Baz to 12"..... ...
I have a PAK (I mean....pack) of questions about AA HMGs: 1. Is the cost of a AA HMG included in the "Shermans" entry of USA AFVs? Is it the "turret VMG", or...
Hey Francisco, where are you from? Spanish speaker as your name suggest? De:RF2support@yahoogroups.com Para:rf2support@yahoogroups.com Copia: Fecha:Thu, 30 Apr...
... Francisco: We do not allow any AA ability to AFV, even when they carry AA MG, mainly because the VG charts do not classify them as AA weapons. We assume...
In my club we have some doubts about how to play with small arms firing groups: 1) in yhr movement phase can I move the first figure of the decided distance...
We move each figure individually, unless it is obvious they are all at the same distance etc. We only count figures as in a firing group if they have a clear...
I'll give it a shot since specifically the Sherman is my area of expertise, am sure others will prove me wrong :) ... It should be in the cost. The Sherman...
hi everybody, i'd like to play RF in 15 mm. Some of you suggested to employ FOW bases on a ratio :1 FOW base for each RF two miniatures base. what about the...
I have been playing Rapid Fire for years in 15mm and no need to reduce ranges, risk zone or any of that. I mount my infantry two to a base and if only one...
hi everybody, i'd like to play RF in 15 mm. Some of you suggested to employ FOW bases on a ratio :1 FOW base for each RF two miniatures base. what about the...
Please excuse the blatant marketing.... This is my first venture into 20mm resin buildings. If this goes okay my next will be a 2 storey farm/village house for...
... Hi, Marc Really they do? IMHO the rules do not state it clearly. The interp in my club is that they do not block LOS for firing. This avoids a lot of...
