More of that in the next post.<br />The division compositions are only diced for at the beginning when they enter a game, and the effects carried over into the next game.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02918057670249529750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7174146262920547660.post-30453523427921869432019-11-27T07:16:12.841+11:002019-11-27T07:16:12.841+11:00Cheers.Cheers.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02918057670249529750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7174146262920547660.post-84695071945360774122019-11-27T07:15:53.966+11:002019-11-27T07:15:53.966+11:00War Game Campaigns is certainly an excellent book,...War Game Campaigns is certainly an excellent book, and one I often revisit and always come away with ideas.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02918057670249529750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7174146262920547660.post-46285787898735584752019-11-27T07:13:57.583+11:002019-11-27T07:13:57.583+11:00Thank you both.

I ask because when it comes to second-guessing where someone will try and force a crossing your orders system from your recent WW2 campaign would seem ideal and I do like the uncertainty the terrain cards bring.<br />One last question; do the divisions dice for composition for each action or just their first after which it is fixed (with losses carried over)?<br />I too have a nice vintage hardback copy of The Wargame, and a paperback reprint for use to keep the original nice. Again I acquired these recently having drooled over library copies as a schoolboy - the photos are the inspiration for my SSM armies, although I use the CHARGE! rules with them.Robnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7174146262920547660.post-73348442518803310762019-11-27T01:14:57.073+11:002019-11-27T01:14:57.073+11:00Following with great interest :-)

Single ACW battles can be bland affairs, but the addition of a campaign focus I think will make all the difference.<br />Your maps are things of beauty by the way.Duc de Gobinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10668407600014604176noreply@blogger.com
