Great product! Love the Fox Hill map and KW scenarios. Plus it is great to use the Tarawa extension map too. Many thanks LFT.

 

[JRKrejsa]

How did you make your Tarawa extension map? How big was the finished product?

I was going to just take it to a local copy place….

 

[pj norton]

I have the same question. Can I just print it on paper on my printer or will I have to size it?

 

[Honza]

It is about 20 inches long. The hexes need to be 1 inch in size. I took my file to a printer shop and asked them to print the hexes at 1 inch in size and they were okay with that.

As one of the designers, that is exactly what I did. Downloaded the file to a thumb drive and took it to an office store and had them print it. Worked great. Hope you enjoy the scenarios as much as we did designing them.

Thanks!

Good looking pack.

When will the distributors (BFP folks) get their stash to sell?

Thanks Keith, my FTC10 arrived last week and I'm looking forward to playing the Tarawa scenarios as a way of getting familiar with the terrain for the big one (BRT CG... well, one day). Do you know if LFT will be putting out a VASL version of this (and the Fox Hill) map?

 

[benj]

I have just put the FH board on the LFT website here: https://lefranctireur.org/spip.php?page=article&id_article=154

I do not have the Tarawa VASL board but can try to convert this sometimes.

Got mine yesterday. It's magnificent as always! A question on the scenario numbering: I was expecting these to pick up where FTC9 left off, with the last scenario in FTC9 being FT273 and the first scenario in FTC10 being FT274. But the FTC10 scenarios start with 294. Was just wondering if the numbering is a mistake or if there is some other as-yet-unreleased product that will fill the gap?

I believe LFT numbers their scenarios in the order of release across their products. I would have to look at their catalog to see where the "missing" scenarios reside.

Oh, thanks, but I think you misunderstand the question. There is no currently released LFT product that contains scenarios numbered 274-293. I was actually just hoping someone from LFT might be able to say whether there is some still-to-be-released product that will fill the gap, or whether the FTC 10 scenario numbering is in error.

 

[laurent closier]

Paul,

The "missing" scenarios will be released in the LFT15 magazine. The LFT15 scenarios were laid out (and so numbered) first but not playtested, when the FTC10 scenarios were submitted already playtested and so close to release.

Great, thank you for clearing that up!

Yet, no one has asked what LFT15 will be out or what the theme might be. Or is one of the projects mentioned in FTC 10?

 

[sswann]

Scenarios from 1918 to 1943
Covers several nationalities and geographical locations from the USA - North Africa - Crete - China - etc.

Sold already

 

[Steve H]

Yup...that will certainly be added to my collection. Is it being delayed purposely to come out after...or coincide with the new "Hollow Wallets" re-print?

 

[sswann]

No, LFT15 is not being purposely delayed for Hollow Legions.
This is what can happen when there are multiple, high density products being worked on at one time.
One ended before the other.
Plus some playtesters are taking a break
There is one other project that may appear prior to LFT15.

IF there are any who want to assist in scenario testing I can provide VASL Maps and scenarios.
Contact either myself or Xavier at LFT.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

The maps are really beautiful and very interesting.
