Good luck everyone.
Those Crusader tanks look so cool!
Looking forward to following this all day
I hope you all have a great day. Looking forward to seeing the results of the campaign. Wish I could have been there with you all 🙁
And so begins the second day of tiny wee men in the sand.
Have a brilliant sunny day in the desert boys
a couple of the questions I have at this point:
I play Americans 1943. And I was wondering why they haven’t released more of the new formation sheets.
And will the digital forces charts on the forces.flamesofwar.com be updated to this new format, or will I have to buy the new ones seperately?
Really Looking forward to this!!! We have just returned home from a 9 month deployment! just in time for some awesome 4th edition action!
Questions!
what happened to “Jumbos Lead the Way”??!!
Do Aircraft range in every time now with bombardment attacks from bombs and rockets?
Jumbos lead the way is gone, it’s just the mistaken target rule now.
I believe aircraft self spot for there own bombardment and they range in as usual. They come in on a 4+ now and if shot down they don’t return..
Put some very bright light up (sun) over those tables, and turn on the heat to a nice 44 degree Celsuis, to get that blury hot visions over the sands, and have a real desert feeling when pushing those tanks across.
Here’s wishing you guys a fantastic day of playing!!!
Best of luck to everyone involved! Can’t wait to see the results!
Have fun and take a lot of pictures 😀
Oriskani’s tutorial on battle diagrams was particular highlight from yesterday. Hoping for more of the same.
Thanks very much, @cwen . YES, we do have some more coming on Sunday. 😀
After a cold night under the desert stars, my guess is the forces can’t wait to get warmed up!
Looking forward the first game!
Can’t wait to get my hands on the new rulebook
Painting up a sherman 3 now while watching some great fow content 🙂 doesn’t get much better than thisn
Wot no Ulster Fry for breakfast?
Should be manditory!!!!!!!
Man, this release looks great. Never much cared for the desert war, but this may turn me around.
This stuff has never really taken my fancy until now, but I reckon I could really get into desert warfare.
Just waking up in the USA, sounds like all are having a great time.
Wish our tables looked at good as these! 😀
Seems like another well-organized BoW-Bootcamp for 15mm-gamers – keep it going!
Day 2 here we go.
Have fun!
