    VAS rule query on damage

    I suppose one of the areas where Crew Points might have an effect is in a Campaign Game. Isn't it the case that Experience Points need to be expended to replace Crew casualties?

    VAS rule query on damage

    DM, I would guess 1 casualty...! Seriously though, she was sunk with one torpedo. That's not possible in this game, (unless it's a critical hit that blows everything to smithereens, and kills everyone). Dan

    VAS rule query on damage

    I'm not generally a stickler for 'logic' when a good game mechanic will do instead, but as the rule currently stands, is it the case that, say, an Aircraft Carrier could be gradually torn apart without any Crew Losses at all? Seems a bit strange...

    Absolutley Daft Question On Crew Points

    This is so basic I'm ashamed to ask it, but: Crew Points. Is one Crew Point automatically lost for every point of Damage incurred? I've had a look through the rules and can't seem to find clairification on this. I'm assuming that is the case, but just wanted to be sure. Dan

    BATTLEFIELD EVOLUTION MINIATURES - BLACK CHARACTERS

    Shotgun: Thanks, but I'm going to buy pre-painted minis specificall to avoid breaking out my own paint brush. And I don't understand the 'production cost argument'. If you're creating individual sculpts, why can't one or two of them be Black characters. Katadder: There are more than 10 ethnic...

    BATTLEFIELD EVOLUTION MINIATURES - BLACK CHARACTERS

    Locutus9956, Sorry, only just seen your response. I didn't realise I was making a politcal statement. I was just asking why figures representing armies comprised of significant numbers of BME troops have no BME characters. It's perfectly normal for people to make requests like, "I'd...

    BATTLEFIELD EVOLUTION MINIATURES - BLACK CHARACTERS

    Katadder, Well, certainly not as many as there should be, which is why all branches of the UK Armed Services have launched specific BME recruiting campaigns. But there are certainly enough BME serviceman to warrant representation in a product like this. That's even more true of the US Armed...

    BATTLEFIELD EVOLUTION MINIATURES - BLACK CHARACTERS

    Just wondering if there were any plans to produce any black/minority ethnic figures for the battlefield Evolution collection. Seems a bit odd given the ethnic make-up of the British and American Armed forces that all their miniatures are white. Shouldn't be much of a problem given that...

    COUNTER SHEET ID, (OH, AND ITALIAN AIRCRAFT!)

    Like to kick off by saying great game. But two small grumbles: a) I got the counter sheet supplement. The problem is the ID numbers on the new ships are identical to the original counter sheet. This makes it a pain identifying individual vessels in big actions, (which is why I ordered the...
