Turn 1 Turn 2 Turn 3
Using the historical TO+Es I linked up the units (Regimental and Battalion level) to FoW Army Lists from the Blitzkrieg book. Each unit will have a marker on this map in the future and be able to move set distance based on type and modified by terrain. I will manage the tracking and movement requests. When units engage, I will notify the sides of the type of contact, total points value and lists available to use. They meet, play a game and report the results in simple terms of Platoons destroyed and platoons damaged. I will run a simple Victory point tally and determine result and withdraw or dissolve the loosing unit based on the result.
Specifics of the actual terrain on the map will also influence the terrain used in the engagement. So woods on the map equals woods on the table, etc. Pretty simple I think. Here are the files so far: Campaign Files Here is what I worked out for the TO+Es:

You may want to put this up on the main Flames of War forums if your looking for more people to just report AARs to you. But Free for All, is just one mission out of the number of missions available.
ReplyDeleteYeah, thought about that bu that will require much more communications and coordination. I was just looking for a fun little short campaign that does not require too much work to maintain, is fluid an fun at the same time...not sure if that's achievable, but we'll see.
