Well if enough people want it, it will be made... http://www.wargamesfactory.com/league_ww2 When they get enough interest in any of the proposed sets (1000) they will be made, their plastics look reasonable and their just doing some 6mm stuff so detail would not be a problem i think> Worth a...

Very nice to have the .50 cals but if I was wanting to play with .30cal mg's used in the infantry support companies/rangers/dismounted from half tracks etc would this be a fair stat? .30 cal MG 36" range 2xD6+1 Auto, Prone (70pts) Also wondering what traits would be appropriate for US...

Hi - firstly well done! Simple, playable, sufficiently historical WW2. Very much enjoyed War At Sea and pleased to see my second Mongoose game hasn't dissapointed. Am hoping it takes off - but if it's not too much of a cheek from a new poster would a seperate board for WAW be a problem? WW2...

As encouragement i'd love to see an italian list, regularly play against them in another well known ww2 system - what you have looks good so far, some points for your consideration: Desert games play differently to regular ww2 games, lack of cover and wide open space being big factors which...

Another thing we tried to improve rules from the MRB (dont have OOB yet) Squadroning planes in the same way as ships, so place the counters together (we did up to three) and move them as one group, with one AA "reaction" per group rather than per counter. In effect they all attack at the same...

Played with Carriers for the first time last night - Just using the main rulebook so expected the aircraft to suck but actually we were both pretty happy with the results. Two "waves" (ie: three flights each) of dive bombers was enough to pretty much cripple a cruiser - allowing my own cruiser...

course you could always go on google earth and print off pics of the real ones...

Me too please.

Some comments/thoughts on an interesting thread: The force org thing sounds like a very good idea, keep things simple. I'll be very interested to see if mongoose do follow up with their own WW2 Evo but guess this depends on the success of the others, best of luck with your own effort. By all...

UK - Leeds - 1/3000 - N - Hodgski (Colin) USA-San Diego-1/2400-Y-Lowly Uhlan (Erik) USA - Central IL - 1/2400 - Y - Soulmage Although may I suggest that someone with a dedicated interest might want to start a map on www.frappr.com any signees could put a link in their sig.

A grandad i never really met was on the murmansk convoys so i wonder what he'd make of me playing this... Like that the moral ambiguity makes you think about it - seems better than not thinking at all....

Credit to the OP though, WW2 wargaming always seemed a bit too close to home for me until i realised that most people who played had a greater appreciation (and respect) for the sacrafices of that generation. Not that you should overanalyse what is in the end just a fun game but you get a bit...

Hi, first post - joined the forum on the strength of how good VaS looks. Just painted up a board - 6' x 4' thick white card that had spare, to lay over the gaming table. Used a tin of prussian blue gloss that was laying around in the cellar and seems to have worked out quite nicely - shiny...
