Russian squads are 8 men, German ones split into a rifle group of 5 and a mg group of 3. Since I was starting from scratch I've based like that, but used very irregular base ssizes and shapes. The size doesn't matter.Dux Homunculorumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00536604035307855671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8339653801453633850.post-17531162722316166052013-12-12T22:13:00.245-08:002013-12-12T22:13:00.245-08:00Thanks for that...

Personally, I wouldn't play anything else for WWII above skirmish level.Dux Homunculorumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00536604035307855671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8339653801453633850.post-71475887001513288302013-12-12T14:40:15.101-08:002013-12-12T14:40:15.101-08:00This looks to have been a 15mm scale game?

When they are dug in they are a great strong point, but can't do much damage to anything at long range.Dux Homunculorumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00536604035307855671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8339653801453633850.post-79073179409390940162013-12-12T03:10:11.825-08:002013-12-12T03:10:11.825-08:00I'm gutted I couldn't make it today but re...I'm gutted I couldn't make it today but real world intrusions obliged it not to be so.<br />Looks like an epic stouch and that is clearly a good force level to get the full effect of combined arms going.<br /><br />"Tigers are rubbish" - I wonder if this is because they are overcosted, under BR rated, or maybe we are so aware of that long 88 that we focus on pinning the bugger as a priority and neutralise it. Its possibly a combination of all 3.<br /><br />Would like to try a Ferdinand or two one day also!<br /><br />How did the KV1s fare overall?Paul O'Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08611720164170399684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8339653801453633850.post-66872017966985485152013-12-12T03:05:42.484-08:002013-12-12T03:05:42.484-08:00This seems a really nice way to spend 5 hours.

I've invested quite a bit in them now and just need to get a few games in myself. chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13028920392149987916noreply@blogger.com
