Some interesting stuff there Mark. As regards flamethrowers don't you agree that they could be better represented: *their comparative range is too long when...
My infantry are certainly awed by flame throwers firing at 15 pts. The rules work for us warts and all and give a fast fun game. ... From: pauldouglas88...
Paul, all good points. In fairness we don't use f/throwers much but find the rules as is seem to work well. Read the other effects rules 8.107 & 8.108. Feel...
