New Mini map

The contest poll is up if you like my alt rule idea support azrael’s strategic warfare http://aaminis.myfastforum.org/about36958.html

Der Leiter, nice scenario. I’ll try to play it sometime.

@Der:

The hardest part may be having the number of infantry - always feel free to substitute - Use Free French (French Canadiens!) or SMLEs. They’re all the same really.

Whenever I need a lot of one type, I just use pieces from the board game. If you need a lot of Canadians, just use the UK soldiers from the board game.

@testguy:

also why are the hexes so tiny?

Print them off at 150% and they’ll be 3 inches. That’s what I always do.

I have 2 buddies playing a convoy scenario today about 850 miles from me.  I forwarded this to them so hopefully they get a chance to try it out.

I’d like to tweek this one. Sunds like it could be a lot of fun.

Nice campaign. I’ve actually making one right now, but I might play This when I’m finished. I like the concept of building the army in squads.

@janken_64:

Thanks for the answer!  🙂

The maps in the scenario are:

Map 1, 2, 3, 4, 11, 16

I can�t figure out what they are!! :?

I honestly don’t know his map scheme. I knew AARules from the forums but he hasn’t been around in a couple of years. He mentions map 16 had shell holes which makes me think he is referring to the larger 3" hex maps. The larger maps had numbers in the lower right hand corners. They were, starter set maps, North africa maps and eastern front maps. Sorry I couldn’t help more.

Similar to night rules, this represents an element of concealment whether cloud cover or what to give an edge to attacking units allowing a scenario like Taranto to more easily play out.

Uncertain objective: after both fleets are deployed roll a die on a 1-2 place an objective marker on the center left, 3-4 in the middle, 5-6 on the right (optional).

Covered approach:  Ship anti-air rolls -1 on each die   Â

Spread out CAP: defensive fighters must make a search check and succeed on a 3+

Target located/lit up: units roll +1 dice against damaged units

Disorganized attack: aborted air units get +1 rearming tokens.

The above provides some historical insight into this, if you view this as cloud cover you can combine it with the current “twilight” rules to represent changing battlefield conditions.

Having an antithesis to a night match has alot of potential so im open to feedback and will probably change it over time.

Yeah im trying to get the effects added to a Malta naval base card for the next team poseidon set.  Giving a boost to aux’s would be good for the game.
