I've looked through the rule book and I just can't seem to find the actual rules dealing with tank riders. I have seen the term used in other aspects as in...
I think TFOB is the first game I've played where tanks are really well portrayed. A friend and I just played our third game in a campaign focused on the battle...
Seems like you had a great game! No need to tell me anything more :) I've just painted some German cars, and when I finish my Panzer IV I will try ot play with...
Well, there are no rules collected into a complete section.... AFAIK of course ;) I found that t he rules mention that an action must be spent to embark onto a...
Just curious to see what other players like in terms of 1/72 models, what manufacturers do you think suit your 1/72 ww2 gaming needs. I guess I'll start 1/72...
... What kind of Pz IV? There were about 7400 Pz IV L43 and L48's made. There were almost 6000 Panthers made and over 8400 StuG III L43s and L48s. Most...
Panzer IV F1 - the short-barelled version. I wanted some earlier version of Pz IV, so having the choice of F1 and F2 I decided to go for F1. If you want to see...

Well my taste pretty much runs the gamut. I use a lot of the companies you mentioned. I also use some of the Hat Armor fast models. Detail is minimal, but they...
I'm like George and have some Hat, some Corgi and whatever else I can find that is inexpensive. As for figures I am waiting on my local store to get some...

I thought I'd share these rules with you guys as they seem to work well for the Kursk Campaign I'm running. Most players in the campaign prefer to have tank...

Hello, I've got a question : do you use the spotting rules usually or rather not? The general recommendation from Mike seemed to be that the distances are...
Hi Mahon, ... ... Well it depends on the scenario. We leave the ID-ing rolls out most of the time (only use them under close conditions like forests, bocage or...
Hi, I have used the rules as a Spotting check. If you spot it, you can ID it. Keeps it from bogging down too much. An interesting concept that might work...
I became interested in Face of Battle thanks to a post over at Strategy Zone Online. I like the scope of the game...individual soldiers and single vehicles,...
Hello, I use FoB and FoMB in 15mm, 20mm and 25/28mm. It depends on the scenario for me regarding scale, but in playing 25/28mm I find that probably the most...
Hi, at my club we do all our stuff in 28mm (with the exception of ACW which we do in 25mm). From my personal experience tFoB works fine at that scale. We have...
Thanks for the replies! I just hit the local hobby store...they had some Italeri 1/72 scale US Paratroopers and German Infantry, so I went ahead and picked up...
