Hi, I'm based for General De Brigade at present. Anyone else playing Republique with GdB basing and, if so, any guidance, amendments I can learn from please? ...
Jim: Can I put in a plea for Alexandra. I know she's a little older than the other ships in your range, but she was the flagship of the Med flagship from 1877...
I recall that she is on the long-term planning list but not for short term work. I think the Dreadnought, Inflexible and Cerberus may come out before her,...
Jim, In addition to the Alexandra, I would Like to add the following ships to your long term planning list. These ships have come up in some scenerios and I...
Jim: Sorry for my belated response, but I only check this list every once in a while. About Alexandra (and two other late model central battery ironclads still...
I've not really looked at the other ships you mention. Here's my complete list of WTJ ship substitutions. US San Fransisco = British Iris-class C2 Spanish...
Peter, the other ships seem to be from the 1870's that saw service upuntil the 1890's. I've not found any minature company that makes these particular ships,...
I purchased a copy of Fleet Battles-Naval Combat 1933-45 originally imported by Hobby Japan but now produced by Sunset Games of Japan. My copy has Japanese...
On the TMP site I saw these rules and the following comment. "Corps Command is probably the best Napoleonics rules in terms of playability, flavor, and...
Of the two I've only used Republique but have fought numerous historical battles and never had a problem with the outcomes being too out of whack with...
Another one who has only used Republique and has no intention of considering anything else. I suspect the Republique was originally derived from Fire and Fury,...
I posted on several groups trying to find someone who has played Corp Commander. According to the anouncement on TMP this is the third edition of those rules...
In addition to the obvious benefit of being free (and it will remain free) Republique also has this support forum. It's typically pretty quiet as far as...
A possible modification we've considered for Republique was switching the officer rating range from a five point range to a three or four point range. I'm...
Jim, During a replay of the Battle of the Yellow Sea 1904, we came across an interesting issue with the rules. The Russian Battleship line was at long range...
I don't know anything about the Quickfire rules but i do play Fire when Ready. In those rules if a Battleship using it's main guns at an enemy Battleship and...
Incidentally Jim...I was wondering about something. I have a bit of an issue with Rossiya's armour values in Quickfire. I understand that these figures seem to...
Sorry about that Simon, I think I failed to note in the rules that when using the point blank range firing rule (which allows you to fire both light and heavy...
Secondaries. The rules I made at certain ranges the TC may use the (locale Director) If desired you could use the DP weapons against ships as well as the...
Jim, thanks for the reply. Your PB firing rule makes sense and would certainly have kept my smaller craft at bay during the opening phases. I will try this out...
Nothing concrete yet, but if you visit the beta page you will see a number of test features ranging from rallying and incidental contact to artillery fire and...
Jim Was going to play galleys tomorrow - but I think we'll play Republique to give your revised tables a test. I will let you know how we get on. A quick...
David, Funny you should mention that. Last week I came really close to changing the iCap sequence from 0-1-2-3-4 to a 1-2-3-4-5 for the very reason you mention...
Regarding the iCap feature, its exact mode of functioning is still open. For example, it might end up as an addendum to the existing rule. Meaning that...
I'm planning a change in policy for historical orders of battle adapted for Republique. Early in the rule's history, I typically made the orders of battle for...
