RASigs is an unknown quantity at this point
G'Day All

As i am finally back online I was wondering if anyonw would be interested in a turn based WW2 Game. What I was thinking of would be up to 8 players, 3 controlling a battalion each and 1 brigade CO on each side.

It would be a scenario prob set 1942/43. Turns would be done approx every 3 Days and there would be pics of the battle on each turn for all players.

If anyone is interetsed post on here and we'll gauge how it goes

It would be my own rule set loosely based on Command Decision 3

Players would place there orders for the turn. I would make the moves on a tabletop setup I have and take photos for all particpants.

Depending on what particpants get from their reconnaisance (ie from the photos), they can then make there next series of orders.

This will be the first time I have run a game like this but I have been table top gaming for about 10 years and have a huge collection of both WW2 and modern figs. Also have a collection of terrain which would prob make most gamers jealous (about some 400 items)

That might be interesting! How would the orders be sent to you?
