There heroes are alright, and remember you haven't seen the whole thing yet.

I really don't like the MG42. I'm not a fan of static defences, and in this case extremely static.  Since it's nearly the same as an MG42 (stats, etc) I might make up a fun house rule:

At the beginning of your move phase you may replace any number of your MG42s with Sandbagged MG Teams, and vice versa.

That's along the same thinking I've been doing.

I think a good idea would to have a 'dug in' marker for any units.  One Action Phase could be used to dig in, but a Movement OR Action phase could be used to 'saddle up.'

About time! With the Char Bis being out, maybe the French will finallt be a fieldable army on their own w/o having to field the same stuff every single time. Yea, I'm stoked for set IV.

It should be good. Heroes might be broken but then just don't play with them.

Except they will be the rare you get in the booster, which would suck.

It looks like heroes are uncommon. At least the preview of the first one is.

Thank WHATEVER they're not all rare. I don't plan on using heroes, so if my Rare turns out to be Rommel or something I'm going to be ticked. I'd probably melt the figure out of spite.

The next preview is here:

The obstacles are the preview.

The barbed wire is 0.5 points. Hmm, I like this idea of having units worth 0.5 or even 4.5.

I think the fortifications look like poo'. I absolutely love the rules for them, but I hate the barbed wire model especially. I know they can't do much better at that scale, but I'll be making my own.

What do you suppose those two infantry models are? I have my theories, but they're shaky.
