    RB

    I have no idea what source the designers chose to use as starting OB for RB... Too few infantry on each side by a factor of x2 . ( Possibly x 2.5 for R) Too few Conscripts ( R should be 40% Conscripts) on Day 1. The main issue is that both sides do not have enough MMC/ SW to form any...

    Encirclement- I missed this. Did you?

    A 7.7 To be considered valid fire, ordnance weapons must secure a hit on the target, and other firers must exert enough FP (taking the possibility of Cowering into account) to possibly inflict at least a NMC result on the target Just two questions: 1) An ordinance weapon ( think 81mm)...

    Advancing to factory roofs......in RB

    Is it legal? Advance to RB factory rooftop. Also per pp and MP remaining what "cancels" such an advance? Example: 44 7 moves to factory roof ground hex (stairwell, or road entrance) not CX with MMG. In the subsequent advance phase can the 447 advance to the roof? ( with MMG) Same...

    LOS thread says yes but eyes say no....

    Here is a LOS drawn with the LOS thread... Even on normal view one can see a small portion of the building on the other side of the thread, agreed? YET LOS is apparently OK. What is one supposed to do with this ? I'm also a little dubious of some of the level threads where different...

    Quick " bump" question..

    When a unit moves to "bump" an enemy unit (to strip?) is any shot at the OPEN part of the said location? This is the same if it was bypassing the hex and as it is not yet in the building it seems that it would be momentarily in the open. building [( hex edge) building]

    Pre Reg - Hexes . Corrected ??

    Can pre reg hexes be corrected after initial strike??😰 In fact, there is nothing in that rule that's says they cannot which means that I've been wrong for a long time. :oops: Oh well. I remember a player that thought the Russians had to roll for sewer movement, which I'm sure stuffed up those...

    DRM situation AFV bogged in factory

    In this situation a AFV has moved into factory and bogged, a terrible shame. Due to the fact that the AFV is bogged thus not moving (stopped) what are its DRM other than a -1acq and +1 for BU ? Its TH# under IF was a 3. Thanks

    RB entry (restrictions)

    If one gains territory above A20 earlier than 20th can the German entry via it? If the Russian captured the I- R entry hexes in the north, are they still entry hexes for the German? Are German foxholes/wire HIP to the Russian if out of LOS? It seems all Russian fortifications are revealed even...

    RB Mk 2 (probably RO as well)

    Try this ... Weather has NO EFFECT on air support in October 1942. It is thus merely a CCP consideration. You know, like it actually happened.

    RB ( or/and RO)

    With the fortification points being very generous to the Russian and seemingly little in the way of restrictions........>>> With 2 CCP = 80 FFP The Russian could HIP 12x 447 = 36 ffp ( HIP 12 MMC) 4 x leaders 4 ffp ( HIP 4 leaders) total = 40 FFP 2 complete companies on...

    Concealment and CC

    What does 1/2 mean in the CC table when attacking an enemy. Is it FRU or FRD? Example: Russian 447 A concealed , B 447 KEU German 8-1 with 2 467 CC the above. They can attack as 1 1:1 with attack at ? 447 (A) at what ?

    AFPh and AFV - which mods apply?

    Due to not being able to OVR in bypass one is left with firing in the AFPh in the same hex. Do all these mods apply? TPBF ( same hex) x1/2 (moved) x 1/2 ( fire in AFPh) TEM of the bypass hex (building, woods) Example : Pz IIIL BP factory. 8 x 3= 24 / 2 =12 /2 =6 6 +...

    Air Support RB

    There is absolutely no basis for air support to be influenced by the weather in RB. The idea that weather has to be clear is in effect incomprehensible . So much info on this plus first hand accounts ... Adjust as needed ..

    cloaking counters in RB

    It was my understanding that the Russian (most often) receives 10 cloaking counters. 5 of these may be "dummy". How do people play this, and can players not use dummy at all so receive close to one per MMC? Thank you

    Series of LOS RB ver 3 all seem crazy....

    It seems ALL these LOS are non-existent. As I have a glitch in the LOS in the levels showing does anyone have a clue as to how ANY of these LOS are possible. For example, a level 1 building LOS crossing a level 2.5 factory ) to another level 2.5 factory roof ! The K22 building has two...
