Hello everyone. I just joined the group a few days ago. I have my copy of Face of Battle, and the American supplement in the mail. They should be here in a...
Basing is non-standard, in regards to size. However, the game is 1:1 figure scale, so you want to base accordingly. Regarding crew served weapons, as long as...
Thanks Tyler. I know what you mean about the thicker bases. I have most of mine mounted on Games workshop 20mmX20mm square bases. My mg34 and 42 lmg are...
We have posted the TFoB Errata V1.0 on the FTP Site. Go to http://www.thefaceofbattle.com and click on the Downloads section, then Download The Face of Battle....
I short time back I finally got all the rules for FOB but have only just started playing them in very small scale afv vs afv or 3 men vs 3 men etc just to get...
Hello! The layout is both good and bad. I really like the chapter approach and we tried to keep a consistent format and rule style, but some rules are spread...
... though ... use ... I agree - I use 25mm round bases (I play in 28mm) and find the bases look good to me, are consistent and easy to work with, and (like...
At the risk of sounding dumb and that I havent read the rules I will ask it anyway. For Weapon Fire at an AFV following the TRS 4.0 on page E-10 there are no...
A while back I posted some random thoughts on Ye Olde Face of Battle, or perhaps, the Face of Black Powder. I want to jerry-rig some rules for skirmishing...
I'm looking into FIW as well. I was thinking, instead of bookkeeping in regards to multiple turn reloads, make the slowest reloading weapon fire once per...
I have been thinking of a Sci-Fi variant too....(Face of Future Battle, Face of Far Future Battle??) Anyone interested? Anyway, w.r.t. muskets and rifles, from...
Is it possible to release an additional Data Sheet with the MA/ATR/Guns Details with the hit modifiers etc as per the Firearms Table even if its a PDF or...
Man, it's rough researching a new period. None of the books I've read bothered to explain the difference between a rifle and a musket, and none have talked...
Hi everyone, Just got the rule set yesterday and am very excited to learn it. Is there anyone in the Colorado Springs area that could be of any assistance in...
The new morale rules have been posted on the TFoB ftp site. Go to http://www.thefaceofbattle.com - click on Download - click on Download The Face of Battle ...
The new QRS #3 and #4 have been posted on the TFoB ftp site. These tables are used with the new morale rules. Go to http://www.thefaceofbattle.com - click on...
Hi I must say that I am VERY pleased with the FoB rules. They remind me of Avalon Hill game rules, i.e. the numbering. And I really like rules where rules for...
Mike, Getting rid of multiple pinning results and such is great. It'll make it much easier for my on-base counter idea. BTW, you seem to have had trouble...
________________________________________________________________________ Greetings all, Yet another new player to the game, having just recently picked it up ...
Hesitate and shaken are two different morale situations. Shaken is a morale level (like pinned and broken). Hesitate is a special morale situation that is a...
Hello, We like the numbering too. It makes discussions about certain rules easier. We also like the chapters. It is a little "old school" and can use some...
Maybe we will remove the reference to the hesitate rules from each of the shaken, pinned and broken sections and just leave it in the hesitate section, I also...
Ahh, I missed that part. Maybe if the descriptions of the moral states began the chapter, followed by rules for taking and failing moral checks. ... From:...
I thought of going 15mm, since Battlefront is so easy to find locally (Fandom II doesn't stock much WWII, considering that it's in the same town TFOB was born)...
I have a few questions regarding the improvements to the morale mechanics. First off, will some nco's and co's still have multiple recovery actions? From the...
Hello, ... has ... NCO's and CO's will not have a RA rating anymore. They simply can remove any morale affect on a leadership card or their soldier card. That...
Just looking for a further clarification... ... But a senior sargeant will have more leadership cards than, say, a corporal, making him still a more effective...
