Axis and Allies Miniatures Collections

Again, just make sure VASSAL is configuration-based enough.  if you have to code to make changes then I’d look at one of the more polished products.

Battlegrounds has stated on their website that they are working on a wargamer-specific tabletop version of their software.  Id be curious to know how that is comiong  along…

That being said VASSAL has been around for a while and lots of games have been ported to it so I know its pretty solid.

I split the Zombies stuff into a new topic.

I like the Japs and think that they are capable of winning “ISLAND” matches. Lets remember that there were no armor clased in Islands.

The British Army normally used 2", 3" and 4.2" mortars, 82mm is a Russian army calibre.

It’s only a tiny model soldier, what difference does the uniform make? Given the limited range of units currently availible, you’re often going to have to mix and match to field any effective force, except for the Germans.

With Set II coming out you’ll be able to field and effective Soviet team and Japanese team. There are a couple of new Japanese tanks that are pretty good.

You might even be able to put together a Chinese team but you might have to amek a house rule that allows more than 15 units per team or play 80 pts. or something. Those 2pt soldiers don’t really fill out the points very well.

Last Thursday I played this army:

USA - M1 Garand x3
USA - “Red Devil” Captain
USA - Jeep x2
UK - SMLE No. 4
UK - 6-Pounder Antitank x2
UK - Vickers MG Team
UK - Humber Scout Car x2
USSR - T-34/76

Despite my crappy roles during the game I managed to hold on and almost win, despite losing my T-34 to a Tiger-I.

Some key things that I learned during the game were that cover is very important. The Jeeps were useful to get soldiers to the front very fast.

The Humber Scout Cars are good but just don’t leave them out in the open for attack, that’s what makes the strike and fade very useful.

Yea it’s an ancient old thread with 3 layers of dust on it, soo what/  :-P
