Had the very great of refighting the battle of Edson’s ridge at Cold Wars. Great players, great GM and a superbly balanced game.

Comment on New armor combat rules to be tested…and more thoughts on arty. by Si B

Not convinced by the ‘Lead” argument above. At very short ranges no lead at all is necessary since a high velocity round travels so fast.

However I do agree that it may well be difficult to traverse a turret fast enough. In a perfect, static example, the simplest method is to lay the gun on and wait for the target to drive onto the ‘X’, sometimes known as the ambush method. When the firer and target are moving its much more difficult. With small arms the method is to ‘swing through’ the target, obviously not possible with a tank gun with 40s technology.

Just my tuppence worth. . .

Any plan to have the game available from a Canadian distributor? Just learned of the game and I can’t wait to try it!

The Road to Beaumont

OK I bet the French were surprised when variable force 4-5 showed up with Soviet Armored cars! Should match the platoon in 6.

Also on Red Cav the first unit should have a MG Cart for the MG.

Page 76 Red Cavalry the first element is labeled “Tank Platoon” kinda weird for a Cavalry command.

Dave – You can contact Brigade Games and they will tell you how to order from them and avoid huge shipping costs….or check with North Star in the UK.
