Force Composition
The game is played with a force that is composed of a maximum of ! elements" according original
table of organisation#
In each division list there are two categories$ %e&uired and 'upport# It(s not possible to use 'upport
before %e&uired is filled#
Troop Definitions
Infantry ) 'oldiers with rifles and light support weapons such as s&uad machine guns and light
mortars# Infantry primarily move and fight on foot but can also be transported by truc* or half trac*#
+eavy Weapons ) Infantry armed with heavy machine guns and mortars that support regular
infantry on the attac* or defense# ,ften heavy weapons teams are moved by
transport such as truc*s or half-trac*s#
Tan* ) Armored vehicles with large cannon and machine guns# .xamples are the /erman 0an1er III
or I2" the 'oviet T-!3" and the American 43 'herman"
+eavy Tan* ) Tan*s with superior weapons and armor for their time period# They tended to move
slowly and to ignore the effects of lesser weapons# ,bvious examples are the /erman Tiger and
'oviet I'" but the 4atilda in the first years of the desert war would also be a heavy tan*#
%econnaissance ) Armored cars and light tan*s used for scouting that have good mobility and light
armor and armament 5generally machine guns or light cannon6# .xamples are the /erman 0an1er II"
the British +umber scout car and the %ussian T-78#
Anti Tan* /uns ) Towed guns or self propelled guns whose primary use are for destroying armored
vehicles# .xamples are the British 9 pounder" the 'oviet ':-88 and
the /erman +et1er# This is also includes anti-aircraft guns that have been pressed into anti-tan*
service li*e the dreaded /erman ;;#
Artillery ) Towed or self-propelled" large bore guns that are used to bombard distant targets in
preparation of an attac* or used to brea* up an attac*# .xamples are the American 7<mm +owit1er"
/erman =ebelwerfer and the British Bishop#
Anti-Aircraft /un ) Towed or self propelled" often rapid firing" guns that are used to attac* aircraft#
They are somewhat effective against armored targets# .xamples are the /erman >uad ?8mm and
the American 4! +alftrac* with #<8 cal machineguns#
+ead&uarters ) The /eneral and his command staff traveling in command vehicles and
communications vehicles#
Basing
38mm wide bases give enough room to mount enough troops to ma*e it loo* nice# If you are not
using 38mm bases be sure to use the same width with all elements 5yours
and your opponents6# The minimum base depth is suggested below#
Base Depth
Infantry ?8mm
Tan* 38mm
%econnaissance 38mm
Anti-Tan* /un ?8mm
Artillery ?8mm
Anti-Aircraft ?8mm
Transport 38mm
+ead&uarters 38mm
Force @ist format
The force list is bro*en into nation" division type and year# .ach element type is preceded by a
number" which tells how many of those elements are available# In brac*ets after are the target types
5sAsoft" aAarmored6 and movement types 5fAfoot" wAwheeled" tAtrac*ed6#
'ome elements have a slash" for example Infantry 5sfBw6# This usually represents an element that
is transported by truc*s or some other vehicle#
