Hello,
Well, Honneur & Patrie was originally a fan submission of David Julien and yours truly, as is the Chinese module underway (also yours truly), so you can definitely try your luck. Let's chat offline: ncmichon [at] hotmail.com. Best, Nicolas
Hello guys,
I've house-ruled it pretty extensively to fit my own obsessions, but the system is so robust it did not break.
My main changes:
- all WTs (MGs or not) fight in Melee like "0" FP crew. I could tweak that to allow MGs to use 1/2 FP for the first round only;
- rocket & missile...
The Kickstarter should be announced soon (above my paygrade), but I can tell you we are making good progress. It will include the updated rules (i.e. compiling the clarifications and a couple of very minor tweaks). I think you'll like it!
Hello Ralph,
these look good - just add the asterisk after the FP because these had a turret. David Julien and I are working on a China volume (side project) and we have the counter for it (and Nationalist Chinese troops, and a sketch map ....)! Just email me if you'd like details : ncmichon...
The French had a small regiment of AMX 30B's + an infantry regiment in the city - but also lots of EW (SIGINT) resources in the city, including an air squadron .... I guess the value was mostly symbolic / intel. Best, Nicolas
Hello Mike, I know this page very well ... and have sent Mark a fully revised version of the French ORBAT, based on more recent French sources, which I have been using for WaW 85. He said himself he had to work from old and sometimes iffy sources. Best, Nicolas
Hello Charles, thanks a lot. I think you've given me a hint at the German name: there was a mention on the Berlin police website of a "Freiwillige" (volunteer) police force, and a mention that this was a reaction to the creation of a militarized police force on the Eastern side. I will hunt...
Wow. Very interesting. Do you have the name of that special police force in German? It could correspond to the Bereitschaftspolizei ("BePo") (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bereitschaftspolizei) (whose role included policing demonstrations ... and possibly fighting it out against Spetsnaz or...
Could be fun. I'll take care of the Forces Françaises à Berlin, ORBAT here: http://armee-francaise-1989.wifeo.com/les-forces-francaises-a-berlin.php. They were fully integrated in the NATO command structure (contrary to the rest of the French army). Charles, if you have the ORBAT of the...
Hello,
Since the BMP had a low-pressure 73mm AT gun, which is not separately represented in the game (it is included in the HE value), it should be able to initiate and defend in assaults against heavy armor, so Keith's view is perfectly right.
The same goes for the Marders, with the same...
Indeed, the Pact should have a lot of artillery, in the early phases of the campaign, and it will often make the difference between a (costly) victory and defeat.
Yet, it bears noting that most of the Pact's artillery was made up of towed guns (contrary to NATO's, which had a much higher...
Hello y'all,
I got my copy this week and did a couple of solo scenarios - nice! Real nice! Some time this weekend I will try to put a fairly detailed review on BGG, along with some pretty minor constructive criticism and one suggestion to be tested (on calculating hits and saves). I will also...
Hello guys,
I do have a few ideas for the French counters, having translated the module for MHW, and looked deeper into it for Honneur & Patrie. For instance, the Legion infantry regiment should all be in VABs, and the mech infantry regiment only in AMX-10 P, the AMX 10 RC should have better...
