I may be bringing a friend. Lets do eastern front.

 

Also have you looked at the SU-76 ? There is an official command car that allows a formation of them. AT9 rof 2 and does bombardments, can move and shoot standard. Seems to fit nicely with your Soviets.

I looked at both SU-76 and SU-122 regiment cards. Might experiment with them. Tired of my guns getting pinned. ZEKE blew aaway a dug-in battery in 1 turn, so having mobile guns might be better.

Friend ... good

Now that LateWar is around the corner with More historic battle areas coming available to V4. I have an idea for the weekly thursday gaming.  Designate each Month according to historical events for that Month.  So far I have come up with.

Jan - MidWar - eastfront - stalingrad

Feb - MidWar - eastfront - stalingrad

Mar - 

Apr - 

May - 

June - LateWar - westfront - D-day

July - Midwar - all - Sicily & Kursk

Aug - Midwar - all - Sicily & Kursk

Sep - Latewar - westfront - A bridge too far

Oct - 

Nov - Midwar - northafrica - Torch landings

Dec - Latewar - westfront - Bulge

 

I know some historical events spanned over months (stalingrad, n.africa) but that can help with assigning which month to slot it in.

What arena shall we play 3/16/2019 ?  I would enjoy a bit of a break from the desert. So eastern front or Team yankee sound great. Thoughts?

maybe try out one of your ideas for the TANKS-giving event, or try out new missions

Mid-war eastern front: "Experimental Missions for Flames Of War" https://www.flamesofwar.com/hobby.aspx?art_id=6416
pdf file at https://www.flamesofwar.com/Portals/0/Documents/Missions/Experimental-Missions-31-01-2019.pdf

Choose either Bypassed or Killing Ground. Not the Dogfight Mission since it looks very similar to the standard "No Retreat" mission

Yeam Yankee: "Quick Missions for Team Yankee" - smaller armies - https://www.flamesofwar.com/hobby.aspx?art_id=5827
PDF at https://www.flamesofwar.com/Portals/0/Documents/TeamYankee/QuickMissions.pdf
Choose one of:

  • Bypass
  • Recon in Force
  • Sieze the Bridge

Agree, after this past event I am all coffee'd out, or Mid-war'd out.   Team Yankee sounds like a good change of pace and maybe test some of the Quick missions.
