How come Luftlandepioniers are less expensive point-wise than Grenadier Pioniers (245 points vs, 260 points)? Especially considering the Luftlandepioniers have the ability to be air-dropped. The same can be said for the Waffen SS pioniers, who are equal points with the Luftlandepioniers. Was...

Are there any differences between normal vehicle movement and trait (wheeled/tracked)movement besides distance moved and having to use ready to go from normal movement to trait movement? I understand the wheeled movement skidding and the fact trait movement must be readied for but what are...

I was told to never assume anything. An armored vehicle taken out by a rifle???? I don't think so! Crew maybe but not vehicle. The game system is good but the vehicle stats leave a lot to be desired. And if the solution is to change (house-rules) them there is something wrong with the...

This has probably been asked before but am I missing something? I can understand infantry in close combat taking out an armored vehicle but why can rifle fire? Example: A squad of German riflemen fire at the flank or rear of an M3 halftrack and roll three 6's. The halftrack rolls for its 6+...

Again why does the essentially the same tank (Sherman and Sherman Firefly) have different movement rates? The it's a game does not hack it. If Mongoose wants historic miniature gamers to play this game they need to fix these small problems as there are many WWII miniature skirmish systems on...

After reading the posts by wkehrman on the thread he provided there is still the problem of a British Firefly having a 4" movement vs. an American Shermans 3" of movement. Why the difference? There was talk on that thread of cautiousness on the Americans part but no army was generally more...

Where did you come up with the movement rates for tanks? A Sherman and a Sherman Firefly are the same tank except armament. Both had a speed of 24-26 mph(15-20 mph/cross-country). Why does the Firefly gain an inch of speed? Also why is the Sherman slower than most German tanks when it was...
