Doomed Battalions Reprint Speculation

[David Reinking]

There is a Rotterdam HASL already in MMP playtesting. I hope it’s in the new DB

A bigger question is whether that might be purchased separately from DB3v2– if included.

That would be a very good thing for MMP to do. I have my doubts that they have the time and resources to pull that off, but, you never know....?

They didn’t sell Dinant or Soldies of the Negus separately so the odds are against it

But, in the latest release of Rising Sun, I believe they included Hell’s Corner— which could be bought separately. So, only the Shadow knows (and those at MMP)

No matter how hard you try, it is still extremely unlikely.

Well, since I have no control over that, I will do my best not to worry about it and see what happens.

At Consimworld, Perry said "DB will have changes. It probably will need to hit its P#."

It's the one core module I'm really after....I've no Allied Minor vehicles/guns....

 

[David Reinking]

Perry followed up that the “enhancements” under consideration are TBD. So, let your imagination run wild… inclusion of a HASL? Rotterdam? Who knows.

How about just hurry up and reprint the dang DB maps that have been OoP for years and years now (9, 11, 33) despite being used by nearly every other MMP ASL product?

Seriously, “we don’t know what we are adding and it will need to make its P#” is not encouraging at all. Print the stupid maps and put them on sale now and print enough you can eventually put the rest into DB whenever it finally shows up…

Stop-gap solution:
Print the VASL boards for any scenarios you are playing which include boards 9,11,33. Shouldn't be too many I reckon.

Yep! And if you AI upscale them 2x first they actually look quite good.

But that solution doesn’t leave me anything to whine about, and with MMP having nearly everything back in print these days what else am I going to whine about?

Looking forward to adding this one to the collection as well. Hope they do for DB what they did for AoO...that turned out to be and really solid module.

Precision dice maybe?

von Marwitz

Oh no you didn't.......

 

[sswann]

Precision dice maybe?

von Marwitz

Why Not?
I would bet that the majority of ASL'ers would buy Precision Dice from MMP.
(AS they do all other MMP products.)

Doesn't the Vickers 6-ton with twin MG turrets really define the Doomed Battalions?

Pfft! Vickers?! Dutch trucks!!

Pfft! Vickers?! Dutch trucks!!

Dutch Trucks!? That clarion call is over 25 years old, and now qualifies as an Oldie but a Goodie.

I’m now picturing you playing that. Very disturbing
