  1. Available recently, but not widely advertised: Mid War Airborne Spotlight https://www.flamesofwar.com/hobby.aspx?art_id=6794 Death From Above - Fallschirmjager in Mid War - Italian Parachutists in Mid War All American - American airborne forces in Mid War Red Devils Spotlight https://www.flamesofwar.com/hobby.aspx?art_id=6813 - British airborne forces in Mid War These packets are self-contained sets of Unit Organization pamplets, Unit Cards and Command Cards
  2. In v4, the special units, equipment and Warriors have moved from the books to Command Cards. They are legal extensions of the Force Books/Unit Cards. These reviews of "Bagration: German" Command Cards are not comprehensive, but do give some ideas of what some of the Command Cards contain http://www.breakthroughassault.co.uk/bagration-german-command-cards/ https://nodicenoglory.com/2020/12/25/bagration-german-command-card-review/ Rules and questions around Command Cards Command Cards: FAQ: https://www.flamesofwar.com/hobby.aspx?art_id=5584 Command Cards 101: https://www.flamesofwar.com/Default.aspx?tabid=109&art_id=6381 Command-Card-Rules: https://www.flamesofwar.com/Portals/0/Documents/Version4/Command-Card-Rules.pdf
  3. Flames of War website tournament level for TY in 2021 will be 105 pts. Add infantry. Since tanks cannot go into buildings, and shooting infantry out of buildings takes a long time, take infantry to hold objectives near buildings, or to take objectives near buildings.
  4. 1) First of all, where to play when things open up again: PORTLAND: GG (Guardian Games) will prob have more tables, being the largest store, but they got rid of all FoW and TY merchandise. OREGON CITY: G&G still carries both: G&G: Geeks and Games (a.k.a. "Oregon City Geeks and Games") https://ocgeeksandgames.com/ https://www.facebook.com/ocgeeksandgames/ 1656 C Beavercreek Rd, Oregon City, OR 97045 VANCOUVER: F&F had TY product, but I don't know if they still carry it. F&F: Fate and Fury Games https://www.fateandfurygames.com/ https://www.facebook.com/fateandfurygames/ 11017 NE Burton Rd, Vancouver, WA 98682 SALEM: WT carried FoW, but a few months ago they were having a clearance sale. You would have to contact them. WT: Wild Things Games, Salem 241 Commercial St NE, Salem, OR 97301 https://www.wildthingsgames.com/ https://www.facebook.com/WildThingsGames/ 2) Is anyone gaming in person? I am not organizing anything currently. However, here are some casual games at G&G on Tue evening. Check their Web site or FB. Don't know about F&F. You should contact them. 3) Conventions / tournaments: None organized by me, for a while. I previously organized events and tournaments for FoW and TY in the PDX area, and participated in ENFILADE FoW tournaments, and ran TY events at ENFILADE. Given the likely schedule of vaccine distribution, I do NOT expect to participate in nor organize/run a FOW tournament at ENFILADE, if that convention is planned for MAY 2021. No word yet whether or not ENFILDE 2021 is happening, and whether it will be in May, or later. 4) Team Yankee: Take one of three paths: a) All comers. Regardless of your faction or paint scheme, all TY forces can be your foes or allies: Middle East AND Europe b) Focus on Europe. Only NATO and Warsaw Pact forces and paint schemes. US and Soviet have the best Tech. Brits have the best Infantry. French are quirky but some of their lighter stuff could end up in Bush Wars. c) Focus on "Oil War" /Middle East. Israelis have best tech. Egyptians have the most choices. Iranians have quirky units and rules. Syrians are like early TY Soviets. Iraqis are a mixed bag.
  5. The Rose City Duke and Duchesses Flames of War Ranger group will not be organizing Flames of War or Team Yankee events while the pandemic rages and an effective vaccine is not available for everyone. There are casual weekly games at one of our FLGS - Geeks and Games - but you should email or call before you go. Slots are limited due to social distancing in the store: Geeks and Games email: ocgeeksandgames@gmail.com WEB: https://ocgeeksandgames.com/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/ocgeeksandgames/ Meetup: https://www.meetup.com/boardgaming-in-clackamas-county/ Weekly Event: Flames of War/Team Yankee - Tuesday - 6:00 PM Address: 1656 Beavercreek Rd, Oregon City, OR 97045, United States Phone: 503 650 5008 Geeks and Games also stocks recent releases of Flames of War and Team Yankee merchandise. barca and crew expect to resume weekly gaming and special events SOMETIME in 2021, when everyone can gather SAFELY indoors. Until then, follow the COVID-19 safety protocols to keep your friends and family safe. If someone is organizing in-person gaming in SW Washington, or NW Oregon, please post below.
  6. RE: "You have any M4A3's?" No, sorry. there were none in the lot.
  7. please clean up your message box. I tried to send u pm but could not. Also, I don't have ur email address
  8. GG offered the lot to me before going to a re-seller. I bought it out - six large boxes about 18 cubic feet - at a discount. Most of the FOW was mid-war. Some TY, some Fate-of-Nation, some Great War If you are interested, I can send you an email of what I have.

  10. Air Defense is now a must, not a "nice-to-have". Try having the Brits air assaulting at night. Who gains the advantage then?
