    FFS Smith's Ridge CG

    Yeah I'm also disappointed that it ended so quickly. Just seemed like a bad investment in time after so many casualties in the first scenario. As Steve stated, the map is great and its a new puzzle getting across all those banks. Just apparently I'm not good at that type of a puzzle!!!

    FFS Smith's Ridge CG

    Well we got through the UN turn 7 on Sunday and unfortunately this CG is at an end. I horrifically failed my PMC. Casualties for the UN had reached nearly 50 CVP in the first scenario, with 10 scenarios to go and already at almost 25% of the CVP limit, it made no sense to continue. Most posts...

    FFS Smith's Ridge CG

    We got in another turn and a half last weekend. We are at the beginning of turn 6. Yellow Sector: Not much happened here, besides the berzerker killing the broken NK half squad that was fleeing and then getting cut down himself. The rest was just some hiding in the stream and slow moving up...

    FFS Smith's Ridge CG

    So we got another turn and a half in on Sunday. And you will notice a lot less American troops on the board.........Steve had some hot dice, including I believe 4 or 5 4's in a row. I went a full turn without passing a morale check, so hence what we have below. The planes did arrive on turn...

    FFS Smith's Ridge CG

    Got thru the North Korean Turn 2 this weekend. Yellow/South Korean sector. The WP OBA that was blinding the hill, has now drawn two reds in a row, thank God for the Pleva rule, although the draw pile is now 10B/5R. My other OBA is playing the dancing SR game, but he is keeping concealment...

    Clarifications

    100% agree with this. Me and Steve do the same thing and it leads to some of our questions on this forum that may annoy some at times. We want to play the game as it was intended by the designer and how it was play-tested.

    FFS Smith's Ridge CG

    Steve is a pessimist by nature. The planes do seem able to be mitigated with the 37L's and the Flak Alley. Before we picked sides, I played around with some counters and my mock setup tasked a 37L AA gun to setup close to each 82*MTR. With ROF, its a lot of rolls and eventually you're going...

    FFS Smith's Ridge CG

    He's got about half in them, half not. I think he's planning on getting them forward into the buildings of Yonghijong village in the Yellow Sector and into the buildings to the west of the Smith's Ridge Extension HDP. I've got two OBA's in decent position that are ready to go in my D-Fire of...

    FFS Smith's Ridge CG

    So here's the situation after completion of the American Turn 1. I did roll for planes, so he knows I purchased early arrival (a no brainer in my opinion since I get so many planes.) This is the North Korean hills, I brought down a purchased OBA with a pre-reg into the JJ sunken road (which...

    FFS Smith's Ridge CG

    Me and my brother have finally started our next CG. Went back and forth with playing either Smith's Ridge or the Seoul CG from FFS and settled on Smith's Ridge. I've got the Americans and Steve has the North Koreans. Here is the at start setups. The southern sector of the American front (Red...

    Walled Narrow Street question

    Yes, the Dense Urban Terrain seems like a very good way to restrict movement (depicting a very built up area) that could very easily be adopted by other TPP and MMP with very little additional rules needed. If I recall correctly the only real rules effect is no bypass if a building crosses a...

    Seoul or Smith's Ridge?

    Looks like the rice paddies/cool terrain were too enticing for my brother, so a deal has been struck. We are going to start Smith's Ridge with the caveat that if it becomes too depressing for the North Korean side (Steve's side), we will quickly switch to Seoul. So I guess the best of both worlds.

    Dennis boys trip to Manila #2 (Let's try SF CG3)

    This thread can die, Steve has conceded the CG. We both agree with the other AAR of CG3 that this is a bit tough on the Americans. Smoke is absolutely required for the Americans to have any hope. With the rain coming on the first scenario more often than not, it puts the American behind from...

    Dennis boys trip to Manila #2 (Let's try SF CG3)

    Current casualties for the day are: American has lost: 4x tanks (including one of the FT), 1x armored car, 1x half-track, 3x leaders (2x -1's), 2x crews and 21 squad-equivalents (mostly 6-6-7's and including 2.5 of engineers). For a total of 83 CVP. Japanese have lost: 3x guns (with a 4th...

    Dennis boys trip to Manila #2 (Let's try SF CG3)

    So we got a few more turns in and this is the situation in the bottom of turn 5. Steve is currently evaluating if he is going to concede the CG. He had a horrific turn 5, he lost one of his two OBA modules to a double red card. Then proceeded to lose somewhere around 5-6 squads, a crew and a...

    Dennis boys trip to Manila #2 (Let's try SF CG3)

    So we got another turn in last weekend and a bad turn for the Japanese. Steve was able to bring his OBA over to 2S76, which while everybody was concealed, it did have one of the armored trucks and a 2-2-8 in open ground in 2S74 and 2S75 allowing him to bring it down without extra draws. I know...

    Dennis boys trip to Manila #2 (Let's try SF CG3)

    So after a long hiatus, we have finally begun playing the fourth scenario. After the idle day, we both selected an Attack chit. Unfortunately, the Japanese not only had to setup first, but they also moved first. This is the situation after the American turn 2. He has brought down two OBAs' in...

    Dennis boys trip to Manila #2 (Let's try SF CG3)

    After the "spirited discussion" in the other thread, we are continuing this CG. We have created an idle day for the third scenario. So moving on to the 4th scenario and what will probably be a TON of squads on the board (especially for the Japanese.) The American recovers his ELR to a 4...

    Manila questions

    The concern was in regards to the American entry in phase Two. ".....to enter along the south/east edge of map section 5 on/between 2I85 and 2W52. The addition "of map section 5" in the American entry instructions was what was troubling me. Since map section 5 ends at 2W56. Any entry on the...
