I was thinking of developing a straightforward flow-chart of tactics: break the enemy into units (fireteams), give the units a posture (assault, defend,...
Does open up the possibility, however, of using two different reaction tables for opposing sides with radically different training (or humans vs. aliens). ...
JT, I did not question your knowledge there was no offense meant. I posted/replied as what is obvious to you and me may be totally new to some readers of this...
That might work. Irregular troops would probably use larger "units" or fireteams. I've tried to design some rules of my own and came uo with the following...
Already being done witht he Spug list on the website. Next up are the Hydrissians. Ed ... reaction tables for opposing sides with radically different training ...
I do this with Regulars, Irregulars, Civilians, and Warriors. Although they are all on one table as subheadings as in: *Regulars will fire *Irregulars will...
Hi all, Just finished my first NUTS! game played against a live opponent (my old gaming mate Morten) and thought I'd like to share the experience with you. I...
SNEBJORN (BJORN FOR SHORT?), SOUNDS LIKE Y'ALL AND MORTEN HAD A FINE TIME! THANKS FOR SHARING THE POST ACTION REPORT WITH US. I THINK Y'ALL WILL CONTINUE...
Sounds like a rough game! One house rule we came up with that could have helped you out is "reconing by fire". Basically, a unit fires into an area to see if...
I just finished my first solo modern game, which is to be the begining of a modern campaign. The campaign is to be set in Zekistan (fans of Full Spectrum...
... Yep, but don't even think about mentioning Abba! ;-) ... Absolutely, it was a fast and exciting game, even with both players being newbies. The whole...
I just finished reading the rules last night and need a clarification on damage before playing. The way I read it, supposing a figure is hit during fire or...
That's an interesting report JT. It looks like you had a good game. Now about the replacemnents For my own guerrilla's I roll 2D6 for each point of the...
Ed, I was reading BPB. I did manage to find my F&IW figures as well as my syw figures as well as my terrain so I will be running a few games of BPB at Fort...
HMMMmmmm . . . . STAFF SERGEANT, THERE WILL BE HELL TO PAY AT COMPANY AND BATTALION HQS BECAUSE OF YOUR MISSION FAILURE . . . REPLACEMENTS? YOU . . . WANT . ....
Yes Sir, sorry Sir! I was thinking a replacement would come in on a d6 roll of 5 or 6 and be a REP 3. Otherwise I'm stuck with the 7 survivors. Now, what wil...
... That's a neat rule, I think we'll try using it in future games. BTW, we deal with hidden troops by having the owning player mark their position on a map,...
WELL JT, LOL, here is the next bit of work for SARGE and his gang to sort out! AFTER the debacle, SARGE and wot is left of his squad find themselves ...
Okay, I'd suggest for ease of play to use the latest OD rule from NUTS! for BPB. It is quicker and smoother. Basically when a hit is scored roll 1d6. Score is...
WELL, this is really simple to handle, ED. recon by fire is now and has been an effective small unit tactic since WW II for the ARMY and MARINES. the desire...
Wow, sounds like a great scenario. Funnily enough I was gonna make some buildings for a Zeek village today! I will have to proxy quite a few minis though...
