Anyone looking for some FtF games in NW Ohio? Email me direct if interested danjay1 at aol dot com
Im looking to game Musket & Pike live on VASSAL any given weekend day. Im USA Eastern time and can wake up early for a game across the water. Email is surigaostrait at gmail dot com.
Just finished my initial run-through of the scenarios in Saints in Armor. None are the straightforward toe to toe battles such as Lutzen or Rocroi. Terrain in the scenarios can be quite taxing when attempting to reach victory point targets. Not one for anyone new to the system, I would say, but nevertheless another fine product in the series.
This series is probably the one I have enjoyed the most of anything GMT has put out. The first Game I bought from them was GBOH GA which, believe it or not, I actually played. WGVA is just much better. I have to get White Mountain set up as soon as I master OCS 4.0 (I'm unabele to wrap my head around OCS and I don't know why). It was really a treat to have a game on the Scanian War. The TYW has facinated me since I read Wedgewood one summer before I started highschool. I suppose it's not surprising that I have Guthrie"s books and Peter H Wilson's new treatement of around 1000 pages. His _The Thirty Years War: Europe's Tragedy_ is well worth the bucks and time. Lurking now.
Lawrence,
Hexside terrain are terrain types that run along the borders between the hexes. Mostly these are types of watercourses (rivers, streams, etc.) or slopes. The cost to enter a hex is the combined total of the cost of the terrain in a hex plus the cost of the terrain on the border (hexside) that the unit crosses to get into the hex. For example, for a cavalry unit to cross a stream to enter a Woods hex costs it 4 (Woods) + 1 (Stream) = 5 Movement Points.
Hey all just a quick question and sorry for sound a bit noobish, on the TEC it refers to two different types of terrain Hex and Hexside, What is Hexside in Lamen terms I am drawing a blank and am pretty sure i am over-thinking it. Thanks in advance.
Thanks, Dick. I saw that he was home. Hopefully he's working on his TYW game ...
Ben returned stateside in December. FYI.
Good advice, but I'm in Afghanistan and they are home so it will be a bit of a while. Alan Emrich and Darin Leviloff of VPG were fgood enough to send me some copies of their games, so I am trying to keep my hand in. I had hoped to link up with Ben Hull in Bagram but, like most things around here, it's easier said than done.
Hoping to hit a few cons when I get back to catch up.
