Hit markers will determine the number of riflemen lost, reducing the firepower, and when the last figure is lost, take off the base. LMGs will always be the last to die. Hopefully it will work.Dalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13667428218897971037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570039711549278262.post-57616040464283546222016-06-20T07:14:36.585+10:002016-06-20T07:14:36.585+10:00I haven't figures out how I'm going to han...I haven't figures out how I'm going to handle infantry fire yet. The rules have individual weapons, but also use individual figures, whereas I would probably use bases and abstract the differing weapons into some kind of fire factor which is derived from the number of hits (figures( the unit has left, plus bonuses for special weapons. The trick is to keep this simple whilst still maintaining some of the flavour of the original rules.<br />Kaptain Koboldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17082772546044655044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570039711549278262.post-20903869561590630662016-06-20T07:02:06.816+10:002016-06-20T07:02:06.816+10:00I've had a skim through your comments, and the...I've had a skim through your comments, and they certainly make sense. Army level morale does not generally seem to be a feature of the NT rules, with his scenarios tending to be objective and time-limit based. However with more units in play it certainly makes sense.<br /><br />My email, by the way, is kaptainkobold at yahoo dot co dot uk, and was active about five minutes ago :-)Kaptain Koboldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17082772546044655044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570039711549278262.post-30611853701498570872016-06-20T04:27:22.851+10:002016-06-20T04:27:22.851+10:00Hi Alan,

I have yet to do so (still re-basing/painting infantry), but in the meantime I published my interpretation of the rules, trying to fill in the many gaps. After I have tried a couple of games straight up, I will likely incorporate your suggested rule changes and some of my own. If you have the time and inclination, I would appreciate it if you would review my notes and see if I am interpreting them the same as you - in case I like your version better.<br /><br />Posted here on my dead blog.<br />http://soldierseast.blogspot.com/2016/06/normal-0-notes-on-neil-thomas-wwii.html<br /><br />Alan, If you're not interested or too busy, I completely understand.<br /><br />Regardless, I look forward to more of your blog posts. BTW, kaptainkobold@yahoo.uk.com bounced as undeliverable, so I added a comment here hoping you would see it.<br /><br />Thanks and regards,<br />John Ferryman<br />Ohio, USA<br />jgferryman@yahoo.com<br />The Ferrymenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07741552972862333515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570039711549278262.post-10734427177342291752016-03-16T06:10:21.068+11:002016-03-16T06:10:21.068+11:00Sounds good, but I must get round to basing my mic...Sounds good, but I must get round to basing my micro armour...finally.Montyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06230149195753516430noreply@blogger.com
