Couple pics of the Tarawa Japanese heavy guns--note on back of these counters state they use rule D9.5 Armored Cupola. Bought the separate 5/8" USMC and Japanese Guns/Vehicles countersheets. Wondering if these counters have some oter special rules in the Tarawa module ( such as ROF,or No IF,etc.)

Looks pretty close to BR:T's 200mm "singapore guns". sounds about the same as well. AFs looks identical as well. Do the rules have 2 of them set up on Green Beach's ""staggered elevated" firing platform?
If the rest of this is similarly done, it could be a fair way to get a copy of BR:T - esque game for under 50 US dollars. At least newbies are not stuck with paying 300 + to get into amphib landings on Tarawa.

Dont know as dont have the module with the rules---just the two counter sheets I bought separately from CH.
Looking at the 127L AA am wondering if one shot allows two IFT/TK DR's since multi-barrel weapon.....

true they're calling it 279 + S & H for the whole shebang - use a 25 % off coupon it comes down to 210 + S& H. still half price from BR:T copies.
A bit different enough to avoid the lawsuit, that's about it. otherwise it's BR:T in Ray Tapio clothing.
wait for about 6 months, you'll likely be able to pick up a gently used copy via fleabay for around 175 or so + S & H - making it by far the least expensive way to tag BR:T - style ASL gear right now.

That was a pick of the additional "extra large" map that you could buy for another $100, in addition to the main pack for $279. CH stated you wouldn't not need to buy an old copy off ebay for $400 - but I guess you could buy a copy from them for $379 :bite:

Did you forget about the 30% discount that anyone can get? That would put it at 265.30. :bite: But if you bitch about the price like I did to Ray then you may get a 50% discount like I did for the main Pack which put it at $100.00. :laugh:
So as you can see, your way off!

No harm in asking for a better price! Just like a flea market

I have the original brt, but would like to check out the scenarios from RT's version. If it was not for those panel maps, I might have actually bought it.

I never bitched about the price - I just stated what the "full" package costs. just wondering, 50-percent of $279 is 139 so how did you get it to $100? I already have the HOB and MMP versions so not interested in this version but I can see how it is attractive to those who don't own any of the earlier versions.

this is precisely the kind of thing RT is good for, and why the map panel idea blows

at least its easy to see which 50% he "discounted " you on.

Typical crap from the Forum know-it-alls.
When it was first put up on the site 8 months ago it was $200.00. After the original offering it went from $200 to 279. I bitched when it was $200 and got 50% off then I just had to wait for 8 months to get it.

at 110.00 it is an inexpensive way into BR:T. That said, let's hope you don't end up paying extra for the missing map panels from the center of the board.

No missing map panels.
Well, there IS a big hole in the middle of the map...
Even my girlfriend noticed that.
