It is 371 years since the Battle of Naseby, a pivotal moment of the English Civil War. Prior to the battle there was no obvious indication that either Parliament nor the Royalists had any obvious military advantage over the other. However, the overwhelming defeat of the Royalists ended this and almost certainly doomed Charles I.
By May 1645, Charles had marched a large Royalist force north to attack a Parliamentarian force that was besieging Chester. News of the Royalists march north, led to a retreat by the Parliamentarian force commanded by Sir William Brereton. This took away from Charles an opportunity to demonstrate to Parliament the military superiority of the Royalist army. However, Charles was very keen to do this and he therefore decided to turn south and besiege the Parliamentarian town of Leicester. An attack on Leicester was, in fact, easy from the Royalist’s point of view. While it may have sent out a supposedly clear message to Fairfax, based in Oxford, about the strength and professionalism of the Royalists, it was a message that was clouded. The Royalists attacked Leicester with 12,000 men while there were only 2,000 defenders. The town’s defences lasted just three hours when the attack came on May 30th.
Boosted by this victory, Charles now targeted Oxford – his old capital now being besieged by Fairfax. Given the choice of continuing to besiege Oxford or taking on the advancing Royalists, Fairfax chose the latter. On June 3rd, Fairfax moved his men away from Oxford to confront the king.
Charles had faced dissent among the senior commanders in the Royalist force. Many Royalists felt that their cause would be better served if they moved north, defeated the Scots and then moved back south to tackle Fairfax. However, to Charles Oxford had a certain symbolism and he overruled any dissention. It is highly likely that he had got an exaggerated view of his army’s strength after the ease of his victory at Leicester.
>>47771684
Fairfax was an astute military man and he knew that Parliament's recently formed New Model Army was not yet as effective as he wanted it to be. He was acutely aware that he needed support to enhance the strength of the men he commanded. Cromwell was still in East Anglia. He, along with Charles, waited for support to arrive. However, Fairfax’s support was nearer and Cromwell and his men joined him on June 13th whereas the Royalist support had to come from Wales and Somerset. Neither arrived by the time Naseby was fought.
Realising the weakness of their position, Charles decided to move north of Daventry. However, Parliamentary scouts tracked their every move. On the night of June 13th, Charles decided that any continuing move would play into the hands of Parliament who could pick-off his rear markers with ease. Prince Rupert had no desire to attack the New Model Army but a Royal Council of War overruled him. With an inflated opinion as to the military prowess of the Royalist Army, Charles decided that an attack was his best move. The battle was fought on June 14th. Parliament's forces were 13,500 strong (6,000 horse, 7,000 foot, 1,000 dragoons and 11 guns); the Royalists numbered 7,400 (4,100 horse and 3,300 foot).
Before the battle started, the New Model Army set itself up on a ridge overlooking Naseby. However, Cromwell ordered the army off of this ridge as he decided that it was too good a position and not even an incompetent military commander like Charles would attack such a position. He moved the army back to Naseby village – some 1.5 miles away.
The two armies faced one another barely ½ a mile apart. Cromwell’s horsemen were on the fight flank of Parliament’s force and he could call on 3,500 men. Opposing him were the horsemen of Marmaduke Langdale. On the left flank for Parliament were the horsemen of Henry Ireton and opposing him were the horse of Princes Rupert and Maurice. Between both sets of horsemen on both sides were the infantry.
>>47771695
The battle started at 10.00 when Rupert attacked Ireton. His men crashed through with some ease but rather than attack Parliament’s infantry formations that were easily open to a cavalry flank attack, Rupert decided to move on to Naseby and attack a baggage wagon there. While this mistake would not have led to any difference in the final outcome, it could have made the battle a lot more difficult for Fairfax.
On the right flank, Langdale attacked Cromwell at the same time as Rupert attacked Ireton. However, in this case, Cromwell easily defeated Langdale’s men thus exposing the King’s infantry to attack. Cromwell duly attacked but kept men in reserve as an insurance. It was this attack on the right flank of the Royalists infantry that doomed Charles to defeat. Without any form of firm leadership, the Royalist infantry broke up. It did succeed in pushing back Parliament’s first line of infantry, but whether this was a pre-planned move to further suck Royalist infantry into a Parliamentarian pincer movement is open to discussion. Whether it was or not, the Royalist force was open to cavalry attack on both flanks while having to fight Parliament’s infantry force in front of it. Surrender was the only real option.
Historians see the overwhelming success of the New Model Army at Naseby as the time when Charles lost the English Civil War. It was a defeat that he never recovered from. Ironically the battle started with the success of Prince Rupert but this could not be followed up. Rupert had perfected the tactic of a very speedy cavalry attack and even at Naseby this worked. If Langdale had been equally successful on the other flank the battle could have turned in favour of the Royalists. The Royalist force lost over 1,000 men while the New Model Army lost about 200.
Naseby is one of the pike-and-shot classics, and an essential for any wargaming fan of the era.

TinyTanks is back!
>After a bit of a hiatus on the 3mm gaming front lately, I finally had an opportunity last night to get some minis on the table for a game with my buddy John. This time I got out my Desert terrain for some Arab-Israeli War action. I consulted my AIW scenario book From Golan to Sinai from Clash of Arms Games and found a scenario that would fit the bill.
>The Scenario is "Botzer" from the 1973 Yom Kippur War, pitting an Egyptian Armoured Brigade trying to make a breakthrough along the shores of the Great Bitter Lake against two Israeli Armoured Battalions. Nothing too complex - lots of tanks, a little bit of infantry on the Egyptian side and pretty much no artillery or air (the Egyptians had their Infantry battalion's mortars, but they hardly count...). An old fashioned tank punch-up!!
>>47771684
>Prior to the battle there was no obvious indication that either Parliament nor the Royalists had any obvious military advantage over the other.
Sorry, anon (great going with the write-ups, btw) but this one just triggered me.
Naseby was just a final nail in the King Charles' coffin: Marston Moor was the pivotal moment in the Civil War. Kinda like Antietam or Leipzig. IMHO, anyway.
Has anyone actually played Chevauchee? I've heard a lot of negative shit about it, but no-one's posted any AARs or batreps etc.
>>47775192
There was some AARs a couple of threads back about some Italian streetfightan'.
Pike and shotte or fire and sword, any impressions?
>>47775458
I would also like to ask you guys about the Pike and shotte models. How is the quality?
>>47775192
I played it when it was still in beta. Posted a pretty lenght commentary on it back then. It needed some work but was fun and I had a great time.
>>47771706
what minis are these?
>>47775458
>Pike and shotte or fire and sword, any impressions?
>>47775458
>I would also like to ask you guys about the Pike and shotte models. How is the quality?
No-one knows?
>>47775889
>>47775911
Sorry, but I am pumped. I would like to get impressions of both systems (if possible) and get some models. It's been a while (since blood bowl) I have been interested in these type of games.
>>47775959
Go out and exlore for yourself I'd say. Plenty of reviews online, tho By Fire and Sword looks a bit too constrained for me with all the restrictions. Plus small unit sizes...
Iunno, I'd go with Pike and Shotte with 10mm figures.
>>47775577
Warlords P&S range has a lot of cheap plastics, they're on the old side (6 years or more?) but roughly equivalent to metal ranges from what I can tell. I don't own any yet but when I start my TYW armies intend to build them around the WLG plastics
My verdict is get a box and see, caliver books has the best discounts I've yet found on warlord figs (I think it's 25ish usd for a box of Infantry) and free shipping
As far as rules go I haven't tried any yet
Finished painting a small band of Condottiere for miscellaneous medieval mayhem. The smallest formation in a free company was the lance, a five man team with mixed weaponry. I've painted up a mounted lance and two foot lances.
Anyone seen "of the Lord spares is" converted for eastern front (WW1)?
Alternatively recommend a ruleset of similar scope for 6-10mm minis?
>>47778451
Check the TooFatLardies excellent 'Play the Game' compilation of a bunch of articles on WWI stuff for that game.
Alternatively try their other WWI game, Through the Mud and the Blood, which definitely has an Eastern Front expansion.
I also know we have all the TtMatB pdfs in our archive because I was the one who posted them.
>>47777421
Looks pretty badass, Perry right?

First match at the club for ages lads, had exams and assignments to do instead. A bit of ACW which was good fun, got put with the confederates which is good, they have the catchier songs.
I got my first hit ever with an artillery shell, have terrible luck with that. Uses 'exploding dice', so you roll to hit and then roll for casualties if successful.
Batrep up at Camp Cromwell on Blogspot.

As anon suggested what you want is "From Empire To Revolution", the Eastern Front expansion to Mud and Blood. But you - and anyone interested in WW1 wargaming - should definitely checkout out the "Play The Game" omnibus as well.
>>47780585
Yup! WOTR light cavalry and the mercenaries box, with some HYW archers for good measure.
Well, I finished college and got my degree, so now I can focus on wargames a bit more. Finished basing of the platoon HQ and weapons section for my Vietnam War US army.

Evening, shitposter-kun!
>>47784320
Im the secondd guy Im just not sure why the same picture of the same board is in every thread?
>>47784327
Well, to be honest, it's not a bad pic. Plus you gotta bump the thread somehow.
>>47784295
>>47783201
It's the ESCI dudes, great stuff, I remember these. Got to love Rambo in the corner there.
>>47784363
That picture wasn't in the previous thread either, although the board was. Shitposter-kun's eyesight is as bad as his English.
>>47784368
Thanks. In case I can put my hands on a Pegasus box, I'll make a platoon of marines too. Now it'll be time to build my two M113s and Sheridans...
>>47784381
I remember the long flying stands, but didn't remember the pic exactly.
At least we can say we have a dedicated shitposter.
>>47784388
>Thanks. In case I can put my hands on a Pegasus box, I'll make a platoon of marines too. Now it'll be time to build my two M113s and Sheridans...
But what about the neighbours, anon? Who are your grunts going to shoot at? I always like this box, it had a few guys with floppy hats and scarfs that made great Khmer Rouge/Pathet Lao fighters.
>>47784388
Im not shitposter-kun, I didnt mean to come off as rudde I didnt realise it was a new picture
>>47784403
I got three boxes of those too I'll start soon. I'll probably need to grab a few IMEX Korean War boxes too for SMGs, machine guns and so forth. Really great figures, the two Vietnam War sets from Esci are both good. My only problem is the lack of grenade launchers and too much M60 machine guns in the US set. Other than that, perfect.
>>47784407
It happens. Plus sometimes the best intentions look like shitposting thanks to those dedicated to the cause.
>>47784295
In that case enjoy your tiny manz.

> The Rebs get into the whorehouse. The Union attack on the left, but are beaten off.
But wait I thought you said the Reb-
Ooooohhhh.
>>47777421
I'm sure they look great, but the picture is quite poor.
I only mention it as you put a backdrop up so must have made some effort, so I hope you don't take offense. If you make sure the figures are on a white base (more paper?) and the background fills the screen it will help. If you struggle with blur, setting the timer so you don't have to push the button as you take it might help.
I found this rather amusing, not really /hwg/ related.
>>47786263
Why not? Many people here plays navy wargames

Farage and the Brexit Fishermen had a showdown with Geldoff and the Bremain squadron and had a bit of a shouting match on the Thames. I think they may have even lightly bumped ships a little too.

Or the navies of the ACW beyond 'Monitor and Merrimack'?
>>47790296
>navies of the ACW
The North had one. The South didn't. That's about it.
>>47790431
perhaps not a sizeable ocean-going navy. But they had quite a lot of ironclads and converted paddle-steamers which I was particularly interested in- some of them 'armoured' with bales of cotton
Just picked up the Chevauchee fantasy supplement and figured I'd run a campaign AAR for the thread using the quest stuff.
Our "protagonist" is an Almohad necromancer called Daud and a coterie of the undead and dispossessed collected from Angevin and French territories.
Daud’s father was a Moorish sorcerer expelled from the Almohad court for practicing the black art of necromancy. He fled the court with a number of priceless artifacts including the mummified corpse of a legendary prince and his wargear. Once the old Emir had passed, the sorcerer tasked his son with returning the artifacts to the court, in an attempt to curry favour with the new administration. The journey would take them across the Iberian peninsula to the heart of the Moroccan deserts.
>>47793310
Just ran Turn 1:
Random Encounter; Encamped vs Non-Human Raiding Party
On the eve of setting out, in the foothills of the Pyrenees, the adventurers and their baggage are set upon by an Orcish raiding party.
The orcs are routed, but Reeve and Damon are taken out of action during the battle.
Reeve receives a moderate wound (11 days recovery time) but thanks to Daud’s medical expertise, the recovery time is significantly reduced.
Damon receives a permanent injury (21 days recovery time) from an Orcish battle-axe, severing one of his feet. Once the stump has been cauterized, a makeshift prosthetic formed from a sturdy boot allow him to hobble around as best he can.
Group morale increases by 1 despite the casualties.
Daud uses an ancient incantation to return two of the deceased Orcs from the grave, to bolster the strength of the party.
After scouting the lay of the land ahead, Little discovers the group of Castilian questors laying in wait at the mouth of a mountain pass.
Little swipes some pies from the windowsill of an empty farmhouse, increasing the group’s morale by 1.
The group elects to spend 8 days encamped, unwilling to advance into an ambush. +1 morale. Reeve’s injury time is reduced to 3 days and Damon’s reduces to 13 days.
A passing merchants sells Wolfe a shield charm.
Not a bad start, all things considered. A couple of bad injury rolls mitigated by relatively low injury time.
Has anyone ever played "They Come Unseen"?
>>47790296
>Or the navies of the ACW beyond 'Monitor and Merrimack'?
I have a bunch of Vanguards on various non-ironclad vessels that'll I will upload for you later, anon. Got a great one on the CSS Alabama too.

There's one on the Austrians, I'll add that later as well.

The naval part of the ACW is an important element of it, with the North's blockade of the South being one of their main strategic goals. You have the introduction of ironclads and the rapid development of steam technology, with battles occurring on sleepy rivers or the Atlantic coast. It's well supported wargaming-wise and has a small but dedicated following. We have a few more relevant Ospreys and two games (Anaconda and River Wars) in the ACW folder.

Quite frankly it caught my attention while I was browsing for Viet-cong organization. Seems like a fun small game, but thought I'd ask here first.

Painting some taliban. Mini has what appears to be an armour vest. I'm thinking it's most likely a PASGT in woodland, can anyone confirm?

Pretty sure he's not wearing the shalwar kameez vest like the guy to the right as middle dudes vest appears to be bulkier. If you look at the shoulder there appears to be a noticeable "drop" from the vest to the arm, which isn't on the other guy with the traditional vest.

Turn 2:
Quest Battle; On the Road vs Rival Adventurers (Brotherhood of Santiago, Castilian knights)
After lurking in the heavily forested foothills for a week, Daud’s company takes a supposedly forgotten pass up into the heights. The Brotherhood of Santiago spring their trap as our heroes struggle up a narrow defile.
Despite having a numerical advantage, Daud’s company is scattered by charging horsemen and a vicious crossfire of steel-tipped bolts. Daud, Big Ears, Hooked Nose and Reeve make it to safety, Little and Large are taken out of action and Damon routs.
Little is knocked out but quickly recovers, Large receives a minor wound (7 days recovery time). Damon eventually limps back to camp later that night, reducing morale by 1.
Thankfully, the valiant rearguard action fought by the two Orc revenants killed several of the attacking knights, increasing the group’s morale by 1.
During his panicked detour, Damon discovered a switch-back goat trail continuing over the mountains. Travel time is reduced by 6 days, but the trail passes close to the lair of a family of man-eating ogres.
Daud loses his footing while traversing a network of perilous canyons, nearly falling to his death.
Big Ears stumbles across the remains of a human outpost on some forgotten cliff shelf, acquiring a rusty polearm from the dilapidated armoury.
Damon acquires a shirt of mail rings from the same armoury.
Travel time is reduced by a further 2 days. (34 days remaining.)
Despite getting their arse kicked by a superior foe and streaking up the mountain with their tails between their legs, our plucky band is doing pretty good. Morale is down to 2 points, but no serious injuries this time around, plus a short cut across the Pyrenees.

Does anyone know any suppliers for Check Your 6 Jet Age, from any period 1950-1970, classic jet era?
>>47813077
I plan to do that for my 1:72 stuffs. Based tanks have a certain appeal, plus handling them is much easier.
>>47815021
1:72 tanks handle fine though. They're like the perfect size for handling.
imo basing ruins immersion unless you plan to be playing on the same terrain all the time (like water with warships for example)
Tan desert squares with grass moving along a road underneath a tank just doesn't do it for me, nor does desert or grass on a snow battlefield, or any other mismatched combination. Not basing gives you more options, increases realism and is less work. I can understand for small scales like 3mm or 6mm, but even FoW at 15mm doesn't (usually) base tanks
>>47815484
Not all of them handles that well desu. Tanks with lots of small parts, and my hated link-and-length tracks are vulnerable enough to consider basing, plus picking them up by their base is safer for me.
And erm...why would I use a tank painted for Normandy in the Battle of the Bulge? Or a Merkava in desert camo for the cold war in Europe? Base accordingly to where you want to use them, and there'll be no problem. Plus most of these stand for infantry too, so I don't really get that one.
>>47815579
Suit yourself, but you're still going to have inconsistencies even on a table that matches your bases, like in >>47810031 There isn't usually a magic carpet of dirt and bushes between your tank and the road.
Personally I like to use units in a variety of theaters and terrain types, so basing vehicles seems like shooting yourself in the foot.
If your vehicles can't handle a bit of picking up and moving around, it might be a good idea to switch manufacturers to something more sturdy, they may also be quicker and easier to build. Wargame minis need to be robust or you end up with constant repair jobs.
>>47815872
Well, I'm not entirely settled with the basing stuff, I'm doing a test on a SU-85 I built (badly) years ago.
And for manufacturers...for most moderns I don't have many options. Revell, Trumpeter, Dragon...I don't want to switch to resin as they appear to be more expensive most of the time, but for some AFVs (like the FV 432) I really have no choice.
By the way, what do you guys use to individually base 15mm plastic men? I keep seeing people using pennies lately and like sure its real cheap, but something bothers me about it.
>>47816216
I don't have any 15mm figures, but if I'd do it, I'd get some 20mm bases for them, possibly from Renedra.
>>47816216
>but something bothers me about it.
What about it bothers you?
>>47816257
Not him, but I feel the same way.
I can't explain it, but I'd rather not use money even if it's cheaper than the alternative.
>>47815903
What about airfix, italieri, Ace and Zvezda?
Also plastic soldier company has a few modern at 1:72, mostly US and Russian
>>47816690
Airfix has really old 1:72 vehicles with really shitty rubber tracks - in case I can get them cheap (2-3 pounds), I'll get some, but other than that, nah. Ace is surprisingly expensive, needs lots of filling, has generally bad fit, and once they are out of production, they are hard to get. Zvezda is too expensive and detailed for wargaming. And none of them carry FV 432s.
>>47816728
>Airfix has really old 1:72 vehicles
most of them are 1/76 so they are useless for 20mm wargaming
>Zvezda is too expensive and detailed for wargaming
also their plastic is shit and some paints and primers won't stick to them.
>>47816746
I could live with the 1:76 stuff. My Matchbox Nato Paras are smaller anyways, and if I don't want to use both 1:72 and 1:76...erm...Sheridans in example, it's no problem.
I have the S-Model box of those, but you get the idea.
>>47816746
>so they are useless for 20mm wargaming
Why is that?
>>47816801
i forgot to add "for me" or "IMHO" at the end of this sentence. semantics
I'm very autistic when it comes to scales so if i have 20mm army, all must be 20mm. if it dosen't make difference for you then ok. your minis, your choice.
Got this at the UK games expo the other weekend, but haven't played it yet, anybody got any comments?
It's nice for the hard 1:72 infantry, but the sprue design means that you need to clip the British models runners in a specific order if you don't want to break all the bayonets.
>>47816863
>It's nice for the hard 1:72 infantry
You mean 1:100
>>47816880
Sorry, yes, you're quite right. 1:72 constantly changes size in my mind.
>>47817074
No probs. Tho I'd be fucking happy if they were 1:72 as nobody really makes good plastic Late War brits with enough bloody poses.
>>47816863
That's based on Command and Colours isn't it?
So if it's anything like Memoir '44, it'll be a decent board-wargame.
>>47817167
I'd be happy with any reasonable hard plastic WWI really. I haven't got the hang of painting softs yet. I would love some hard, very early French. Crimean or Franco-Prussian would do.
>>47817354
It's my first real foray into board games, and there's no board-wargames at my university, so I'm going in blind. Glad it has some approval though.
>>47817354
Yeah, it is.
>>47817455
For soft plastic, plasti-dip if like a godly essence made into spraycan. Without it, I wouldn't have built massive 1:72 soft plastic armies.
>>47817455
It's a decent entry drug into Wargames. The minis in it could work very well with Through the Mud and the Blood, Contemptible Little Armies etc if you decide to move onto something a bit beefier.
>>47815872
Oh no. Someone bases their tanks. Quick let's have a shit flinging contest. Waaah.
I was actually thinking of basing my 1/48 tank. Why? Base to base measurements Plus it might look nice when on display. My 6mm as based so why not my others. Shit.
>>47817455
>I'd be happy with any reasonable hard plastic WWI really.
There's an incredibly faint possibility that a major franchise doing a WW1 game (Battlefield) might generate enough additional interest in WW1 to get some more companies producing minis for it. It can't hurt at any rate.

>>47816216
I use 3/4" fender washers. More expensive than using obsolete coins but they're magnetic. Fender washers have a smaller hold in the center
>>47817821
Not in plastic tho. Vitrix has been planning their WW1 Germans and Brits for years now, but nothing.
Oh well, a sixth set of Hoplites or a completely new range (EIR) is much more important I suppose.
>>47816599
well..you can use a penny..or go out and spend 3-8 cents for a washer thats the same size....
>>47816599
If you say so.
Frankly I think it's a real tribute to stick a model soldier to the Queens face. Thank you Your Maj.
>>47818817
Are pennies magnetic there? I buy washers because local currency isn't. Plus I either use a 5 HUF coin, or buy a washer for 10 HUF.
>>47816746
>their plastic is shit and some paints and primers won't stick to them.
In my experience this applies to the majority of 1/72nd kits, sadly
>>47821279
Even after washing them thoroughly?
>>47819292
ahh good point.
>>47816746
I read somewhere Zevezda changed their plastic recipe for recent kits so paint/glue will work better. Haven't verified myself.
>>47817487
Plastidip? Only info I can find on the internet is a thick rubbery stuff meant to apply to tool handles. Is this what you're talking about?
>>47822124
Yup, that's it. There's a spray version of it, transparent, spray it on painted minis, it'll seal it neatly. It'll be shiny, so you need to apply a coat or two of matte varnish.
>>47822317
Ever used Pledge or Future floor polish? If so how do they compare?
Future is some kind of acrylic wax - same kind of deal, brush or spray with airbrush onto minis for durability and top with a matte coat.
>>47823277
Future wax is great shit for dealing with WSF minis from shapeways, and for the dip. You can also use it for extra glossy glass canopies on aircraft.
I'd be absolutely terrified to put it into an airbrush though.
>>47823338
I airbrush with it, using it to coat tanks as an intermediate layer of protection between painting stages.
Ex. base coat -> camo -> future -> enamel weathering -> future -> stowage and final bits -> matt varnish
I can't say if I'm doing it "right," but this has worked for me so far and none of my paint is sloughing off or anything.
>>47823277
I have no idea. Here in Hungary we don't have that kind of stuff. For washing minis, usually I don't do anything, just spray it with cheap acrylic matt spray. It usually does the trick.
>>47823338
AB works just fine with it. I usually dilute it a bit with some acrylic thinner but never had any issues with it gumming things up or anything
>>47822124
wait, svezda is a thing? like, people buy that stuff? I got a thing of some ancient cavalry and a chariot once 'cause I thought it was cool, never heard of them since.
>>47825449
Zvezda stuff is actually pretty good nowadays. Good (not best ofc) quality for great prices.
>>47825449
Their 15mm tanks are pretty popular.
And personally I really like their 20mm Samurai.
I might even paint the damn things at some point.
>>47821807
Yeah I've had trouble even after thorough washing especially with Revell. Someone here said that you can paint on thinned down elders glue to get paint to stick but I haven't tried it

Katyusha: Russian Multiple Rocket Launchers 1941-Present (Osprey New Vanguard 235)
Although military rockets have been used since the Middle Ages, it was not until the Soviet Union pioneered the concept of Multiple Rocket Launchers (MRLs) in the late 1930s that they emerged as a decisive weapon. In the modern era, these Soviet/Russian Katyushas have served in combat in Afghanistan, Chechnya, and Georgia. Developed to fill the operational need for massed artillery fire support, the MRL possesses enormous destructive power and a devastating psychological impact. This New Vanguard provides a survey of Soviet and Russian Federation MRLs from the beginning of their development in 1941 to the present. It focuses on the history, design, and specifications of self-propelled ground MRL systems, but also covers towed, static, railway, and naval mounts. It highlights the many variants of the principal systems and include MRL unit tables of organization and equipment, information on MRL munition types, and coverage of dedicated MRL resupply vehicles.

I only ever played rifleman or squad leader as a rule, partly because I'd been conditioned by Project Reality to take what the squad needed first and foremost, and that was usually either a leader or more meat for the grinder. It wasn't that I was especially bad with the Mosin, it's just that I never felt as comfortable using it as I did with the Kar98k, so I'd tend to pick Germans if I got the chance.

British Guided Missile Destroyers: County-class, Type 82, Type 42 and Type 45 (Osprey New Vanguard 234)
In the years after World War II, new guided missile technology offered surface ships the chance to destroy airborne threats from afar, thereby preserving their role in naval warfare. This book examines the technology and combat performance of Britain's guided missile destroyers over half a century. Uniquely among modern destroyers, three of these classes have been tested in battle against the aircraft and missiles of another modern navy - in the Falklands War - as well as being deployed during the Gulf War. Written by an expert on British naval technology, this book assess the changing technology of the Royal Navy's destroyers over half a century, including an examination of the Royal Navy's newest and most capable warship, the Type 45.

You are aware that historians are pretty sure that was something only started after the war, right?
Based on tests, the Sherman was no more likely to catch fire than any other tank with non-protected ammo storage.
>>47841957
>Based on tests, the Sherman was no more likely to catch fire than any other tank with non-protected ammo storage.
So wait, you're saying that they did catch on fire easily until they protected the ammo storage? In which case the rule would reflect that well?
You could easily have a case for other tanks with non-protected storage also having the same rule but that doesn't mean the Sherman shouldn't have it.

I think its more to do with the front armor of a mid war sherman being about 65mm. Any hit from a long barrel 75mm or 88mm german gun would be fatal. Its not the shermans fault, its just a medium tank. All medium tanks had a hard time taking an 88mm in the face.
>>47841693
Thanks.
>>47842358
That video doesn't "cover" the ronson myth, in fact he gets it totally wrong, thinking the slogan wasn't invented until the 1950s. He even had to annotate the video to correct himself later. Ronson ads with the slogan were around since the 1930s
Second post has an ad from 1931:
http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?t=217773
Pretty much all medium tanks had a hard time on the offensive against defensive german tanks, and many allied tanks were called tommy cookers (some simply from being very hot inside in the desert)
There's supposedly a memo from Montgomery during the war where he tries to curb the usage of the word ronson, in relation to the poor performance of allied tanks.
>>47841886
Do you have any proof of that other than Belton Cooper?
>>47843691
He does satisfactorily explain that the Sherman, whether it did get the nickname or not, wasn't really prone to bursting into flames more than any other tank. Even the thread you liked to as 'proof' agrees the allegation was likely bullshit.
>There's supposedly a memo from Montgomery during the war where he tries to curb the usage of the word ronson, in relation to the poor performance of allied tanks.
[citation needed]
Jut once I'd like to find a WWII game that doesn't take Belton Cooper (who wasn't a tanker and didn't know jack shit about the procurement process re:Pershing - he thought PATTON was blocking it, despite the fact Patton was kind of busy) as gospel truth. You don't see people bringing up that the Panther could get penetrated in its side armour by pre-war Soviet AT Rifles, do you?
>>47845810
>Just once I'd like to find a WWII game that doesn't take Belton Cooper as gospel truth.
A Fistful of TOWs?
>>47842906
Thanks!
Has anyone played sword and spear? What does /hwg/ think of it?
>>47845810
I dont really know who Belton Cooper is, but in the WW2 game we've been nurturing for 5 years, shermans are no more likely to be destroyed than any other medium tank.
Sherman has "Medium" armor to the front, and "Light" armor to the side and rear.
Panther by comparison has "Heavy2" armor to the front and "Light" armor to the side and rear.
So essentially the same armor for both tanks on the side and rear. As long as the germans stayed in a front-facing fight and ideally were on the defensive they would be ok, but as soon as a sherman got close or around the side (and usually there were FAR more shermans than panthers around) the panther was pretty much fucked.
It looks like the names "ronson" and "tommy cooker" were for many allied medium tanks, and for many reasons, not just the brewing up. its just that there were so many shermans that for some reason the name stuck to them more than the valentines. I mean the Sheman was really THE allied medium tank, its just that against 8.8cm and 7.5cm KwK 42 german guns, they stood no chance, like any medium tank. The guns were pretty much designed to annihilate medium tanks in order to deal with T-34s (and even heavy KVs) in the east.
The Sherman turret could also rotate a lot faster than a panthers turret, being electronically assisted. Both had about the same turret protection at the front, with heavy gun mantlets.
In our system a Panther costs 27 points, whereas a Sherman costs 9 points. So you'd almost get exactly 3 Shermans for every panther. In a situation like that, it could go either way, but the odds are that the shermans will use cover to get very close, then drive around a corner and hit the panther at close range and to the side, destroying it. This kind of thing doesn't really happen in real games though, usually there's plenty of infantry around and other units.
Last game I played actually had katyushas destroy a panther in the first turn.

Thanks a lot, this is much more helpful then the one I used.
Why is there no 3mm infantry games, its all fucking tanks
>>47854441
Because 6mm and 3mm are the best scale for tanks to be used.
>>47854441
You could play the DBx games in 3mm, just use the 6mm rules and double distances
>>47854441
isnt that ASL guy using 3mm, or was that 6?

because for 3mm infantry games you use any of the existing scale agnostic games and use 3mm figures with a more realistic ground scale.
>>47854481
Wouldn't you halve the distances? Otherwise a unit that can move 6" can suddenly move 12" in 3mm.
>>47854705
Yes. I think my brain did that flip thing it does sometimes.

nonono
You keep same distances. Take Flames of war and use 3mm stuff but keep the rules as written

This, at least if you want a more realistic show of how far tanks and whatnot can attack each other. In 3mm a kilometer is 1.6 meters - tanks should be able to engage at those kinds of ranges, infantry should have 50-60cm range.

yet no game does this. Instead everyone thinks guns can only shoot 10 metres

Don't remember, probably some forum or blog. It was just saved in my folder of war games reference/inspiration pics
Reverse image search isn't finding where it's from. Only other pic I have with the same date is attached. Must be a French Indochina game with that halftrack
