We don't use the extended Rules as many haven't bought them and they are not available online. So, we stick to the original ones that everybody is familiar with: http://www.wizards.com/avalonhill/rules/aam_rulebook.pdf

Use the AAM units database http://www.wizards.com/avalonhill/aam_db.asp for units for which you don't have the cards. Alternatively you can use: http://www.hordelings.com/frontend/games/aam/items.php or http://www.boardgamegeek.com/file...oad/23758/A&A_Minis_stats.xls

The Map for the first round (you deploy in the far left and far right hex columns):

Use the embedded dice-roller for the dice and make your own images with gimp, paintbrush or any other image editing software. You simply write down the name of the unit on its hex and then post the image on a photobucket account. If you need any help all moderators can help you and most users of this forum.

Hmm, actually I've got a +2 rather than a +1. However, since it was my screwup we can do a reroll if you want.

Blackeagle

Looks like I win init either way. You can move first.

carrion

sorry took so long to reply was at work all day, well anyway here goes

Blackeagle

Type 92 MG to A8
Imperial Sergeant in C8
Arisaka Rifle #1 to E8
Arisaka Rifle #1 to F8

PzKpfw 38 is disrupted

carrion

Here is my assault:

Mortar vs. Arisaka
Rolls: (8d6)

BA10 vs. 38(t)
Rolls: (7d6)

DP27 vs. Arisaka
Rolls: (5d6)

+covering fire

Mosin vs. Arisaka
Rolls: (6d6)

The rest move. Lets see what happens.

carrion

Looks as if I got lucky with the dice. All three targets are destroyed. Your assault.

Blackeagle

Ouch.

Type 92 to B7
Sergeant to D7
Sniper to H7

carrion

Here is the map after your assault phase and the casualty phase.

NOTE: Before we start turn three and continue you could have fired on my BA-10 with your 38(t) it would have had a -1 modifier but still a shot none the less.

If you still want the shot let my know, for now will roll dice for initiative:
Rolls: (2d6)

+1

reroll if needed:
Rolls: (2d6)

=1

Blackeagle

carrion

I will go first.

carrion

The Mosins at the top move first.
Then Commissar moves.
Then the other units move.
Command Dependent SA, thought I would try and explain order of movement.

Blackeagle

Type 92 and Sergeant stay put.
Sniper to G7

carrion

Moved your sniper
My Assault Phase:
1. Moves F7: BA10 vs. sniper
Rolls: (7d6)

cover if needed
Rolls: (1d6)

2. Mortar vs. Imperial Sgt
Rolls: (8d6)

cover if needed
Rolls: (1d6)

3. DP27 vs. MG42
Rolls: (5d6)

+covering fire
cover if needed
Rolls: (1d6)

4. DP27 vs. Imperial Sgt
Rolls: (5d6)

+covering fire
cover if needed
Rolls: (1d6)

Top 2 Mosins move into hex with MG42(B7)
3rd Mosin moves to C6
Commissar moves to C5

We never decided who should do cover rolls so added them after the attack dice to speed up rounds, hope that is alright.

carrion

So to recap:

Sniper destroyed. Imp Sgt disrupted. MG has guests.
Your assault.

Blackeagle

Sniper attacks the BA10 with its Headshot special ability (three or more successes will disrupt the BA 10 until the beginning of the turn after next).

Rolls: (6d6)

+1 crack shot

I believe the Type 92 MG gets two defensive fire attacks against one of the units that moved into it's hex.

Rolls: (8d6)

Rolls: (8d6)

I'll make the Type 92s regular attack once I see how those went.

The Imperial Sergeant will make a Banzai charge into hex C6. This means your unit in that hex gets a defensive fire attack. Assuming my Sergeant isn't disrupted:

Rolls: (10d6)

Blackeagle

I think that destroys one of the Mosins charging the Type 92. They'll go ahead and fire both bursts at the other.

Rolls: (8d6)

Rolls: (8d6)

For the other attacks, I believe I've disrupted the BA10 until the beginning of turn after next and my Sergeant has decapitated your third Mosin unless you manage to disrupt it with defensive fire.

carrion

Blackeagle, sorry to say this, but the only shots that will effect my side is the disrupt shot at the BA10. Covering fire negates return fire that is why I had them shot first then make the movements. Your Imp Sgt can still move into the C6 if he wants, but will be disrupted and in the open next turn. Your call. I believe that is the case with covering fire, but let's ask to be sure.

carrion

Hello, found rule clarification here, BAR and DP-27 both have covering fire:

http://aaminis.myfastforum.org/about57.html

Hope this helps so we can continue our battle.

Initiative roll:
Rolls: (2d6)

+1

re-roll if needed
Rolls: (2d6)

+1

Blackeagle

Thanks for the clarification. In that case, the Type 92 will move to A8 and the Imperial Sgt. will move to E7.

Rolls: (2d6)

Do you know if disruption affects a leaders init bonus? If not, then add 2 to the init roll.

carrion

Multiple defensive fires in same hex:
Mosin01:
Rolls: (8d6)

cover if needed
Rolls: (1d6)

-1 same hex penalty

Mosin02:if needed
[dice8d6]

cover if needed
Rolls: (1d6)

-1 same hex penalty

will post new map with causalties phase and my movements.

carrion

Moved your Imp Sgt. Defensive fire stopped your MG.
After the casuality phase units are as follows.

Sniper destroyed
Imp Sgt disrupted
BA-10 disrupted
face-up disruption is taken off MG

I won intitiative and moved Mosin from C6 to D7.
your move.

Blackeagle

My units will remain in position.

carrion

Good Game. Since this is my first game on-line it was fun and educational. Thanks for the match.

carrion

To re-cap

Both Imp Sgt and MG have been destroyed and cannot return fire due to covering fire SA. Thanks again for the match Blackeagle.

carrion

Blackeagle

Nice game.

Guess the dice just didn't go my way, especially that one turn.

NeuralDream

Good job both of you. Carrion you're through.
