FRA/ITA Southern France 1940 (6&1-3)Here you can find map and battle details:
Armies
50 pts, 1 rare, deployment zone 2 hexes from the shorter side of the map.
 Errata: Italians can field Schneider 155mm gun w/o penalty. They may also exceptionaly use Canone da 47/32 from North Africa Set:
Tips for beginners
- FRENCH: Char 1B is good, Somua is better, Panhard is uncommon 
- ITALY: Against heavy enemy tank, you may field Sparviero bomber or 47-32 canon. Your vehicles are quite expensive piece of scrap, but you might find some use for Semovente gun ...
Map: Southern France
* Use classic skirmish battle (objective = center).
Special: G4 Ammunition Factory "Cartoucherie" - treat as city hex.

PM with army sent to Sindor.
Carrion, will you be able to do the maps? I can do text on the map which gets the job done but isn't pretty.
Sindor, what is the terrain on I2. Is it just a marsh or is it a marsh on a hill?

Dewoitine D.520 12pts
Canon Schneider 13pts
Moroccan Tirailleurs x3 12pts
Lebel Grenadier 5pts
MAS 7.5mm Rifle x2 6pts
Renault UE 2pts
... do you know Schneider 155mm is heavy and cannot be towed by Renault UE?

Ups, there is no icon made for Canone 47/32 - but as I see you managed to overcome that problem

Do you want to roll your own cover rolls or have me roll them when I attack your units?
I am fine either way.
|

Roll for cover where needed and I will do the same for your units, if you do not want to do it this way let me know. Thanks
|
The Mighty A

Good luck. This should be a good game.
That works for me for the attacker to roll for cover.

A bloody massacre here 
ad Field camouflage: Once revealed, gun remains revealed (will be too complicated to record which unit has seen which)
ad Disrupted inf. against airplanes: yes, they can attack aircraft, but with -1 penalty as usual (i.e. on 7+; so no if it's not an infantry with special ability)
As you see, aircraft is good to bother units, but not very effective without bombs... and I appreciate the "dirty trick" with Renault UE as a mechanised unit

That was a nicely done, for only 2 points.

The Renault was to serve two purposes:
