    I talked to my group this weekend, and there wasn't much of an interest in attending. The group in Spokane is a bit belligerent and less than dependable when it comes to TacSol. If there's not much interest, I probably won't put anything together. If there is any interest, I will probably just organize an exhibition game, most likely in the form of a team battle.

    Anyone interested in coming to Spokane for Tactical Solutions? It's in October, but I haven't seen any official announcements yet. I'm just trying to figure out what kind of interest there is so that I can better plan this year's event...

    Can we dress tables Friday night? What time?
  5. Corky272
    Just emailed my list, and I will be bringing a bunch of terrain...

    Sweet Fanny Adams!!! I've been calculating lists all day at 1750 pts. Back to the drawing board...

    I have registered with Enfilade, and will be bringing my Americans. I also have a crap ton of terrain that I am willing to bring over if you're interested...

    Just that it's late war version 3...

    Hey, it looks like we have three peeps from Moscow Front coming over to participate in Enfilade: myself, Dale, and Leonard. Leonard has already registered. Is there an update on the Flames event?

    Hey, for anyone who may be interested in traveling to Eastern WA or North Idaho, here's our schedule of events. 2017.pdf

    I'm kind of partial to Bulge battles, myself...
  12. Corky272
    Touché. I do play Americans. The Damned Engineers, to be specific. I suppose what I am asking is is there a specific theatre/book we are limited to and roughly how many points?
  13. Corky272
    Good to go. Thank you. Without getting into too much detail, is there a direction in which we can start prepping our armies?
  14. Corky272
    Has there been any scuttlebutt yet for this year's Enfilade?
  15. Corky272
    Forgive me for being the noob, but could you please explain OFCC or direct me to an appropriate page? Thanks!

    I have two questions: 1) My bread & butter list is the 291st Engineers from DC. I love Bulge events. Are there any plans to have a one-day mega battle or something along that line for those of us folks out of area to join in? Or, possibly, do you have an online forum or such that folks from Eastern WA/N Idaho & the Lacey area can compete along with you during the campaign? 2) Besides Tac Sol, is there any planning/brainstorming/buzz on trying to be more inclusive/competitive with the PNW? I still need to make contact with the MT group, but would there be interest in an interstate convention/state-team competition?

    I had a great time at Tac Sol. I have more time now to prepare for next year. I liked the scenario battle we played. It was actually quite a bit of fun. That in mind, I think for next year, I may prep two scenarios: a tournament event & a mega battle. Turnout will determine which we do. I think, mostly, it will depend on quickly the Tac Sol peeps decide that it's in their best interest to offer a one day pass...
  18. Corky272
    I have no idea. You'd have to contact the guys running Tactical Solutions and talk to them. Their contact info should be on their site...

    Hey everyone~ I just talked to Mark, and he has made us a fantastic offer. From Mark: "If you bring a friend that has never attended TS, you both get $10 off your membership making it $20 for a preregistration. If you bring a friend, you both get in for $20." This is a great deal, folks. So, go to http://startroop.wixsite.com/tacticalsolutions and make sure to preregister in pairs, to get in to the event for cheap. That's all for now, folks. Be sure to register with a friend, and shoot me a copy of your army list.

    Hey, everyone! We're a little more than a week away. If you're interested in playing, shoot me a message and let me know that you're coming...
  21. Corky272
    And then you have the American OSS: the only EW list that isn't allowed to be played in EW...
  22. Corky272
    Yes, they are. I bought the Bulge Compilation, so as soon you submit your list, I can verify it...

    On another note, a couple of us have worked out a gaming system -- an uberwar, if you will -- for high points games (upwards of 4k or better). It's a mutli-day event, but it can be done, and it's quite fun to play. If anyone is interested in an exhibition -- East vs West, perhaps -- let me know, and I'll share what we've worked out...

    I've played 2k points as doubles, and it seems to work well, so long as the team mates don't have the same type company. It get's interesting. The only time I've ever played the "loan points" system, is when we have multi-player teams, 3 to 5 players per side. That gets really interesting. As for solo play 2k, Moscow Front has run several tourneys at that level with 2:15 rounds and they seem to work really well. You are right, though, it requires practice: knowing your list, understanding your list, and executing your list.
  25. Corky272
    There is, but there isn't. It's a matter of combined arms and finding a list that works well together. Relatively speaking, my engineers have a short TO, but it still took me four or five attempts to find a list that works. I find it more difficult to play higher points games than lower points... platoons must compliment each other. If they don't, the fail list will fail. I also won't play noobs at 2000k points. They're too fresh, with too little of an understanding of game mechanics and war theory. It's no fun playing such a game. Who you're playing also depends on the point total. I won't play a high points game against the Brits, and the Soviets....it depends on what they're bringing. As for everything and more, you are right to an extent. Playing a LW rifle company? Party on. Playing a LW tank company? Party on. Playing a fortified company? Well, that just sucks at any point level. But, bring a special company (Ranger Bn, TD company, Eng Co) now it gets interesting, and 2k points aren't all that scary. That kind of rambled, but eh...
