RUS/JAP Mandchuria 1939 (1&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: Japanese may use all units available in 1939 (even if "RUS" location is not mentioned). Russians may use Fanatical Sniper.
Tips for beginners
- SOVIET UNION: Your tanks are better than japanese. However, a heavy artillery may serve as well.
- JAPANESE: 75mm AA gun is rare and fragile, but a good one. Zero with a Small bomb might be a good investment.
Map: Far East
* Use classic skirmish battle (objective = center).
Special: Infantry may hide behind rail embankment and in the fields with cover -1.

Herr West... has to choose what now?
|
Sindor
|
Mr. Westen has to choose who starts (and eventually deploy his units)
|
Westentaschenschlachti
|
Oki, West chooses to begin and here is his deployment:
Both artillery to K2
Cavalry J1, J2, J4
Grenadiers J2
BA-10 J7
Mines go to H1, H2, H4 and F1, F3, F4.
|
Sharpe
|
Which units are spotters and how do they affect indirect fire?
What is the spotting range?
Thank you.
|
Sharpe
|
Can he put mines on or adjacent to the objective?
|
Polish_Cavalryman
|
yes. and they don't affect him.
that's my understanding. I didn't think it was a very good thing either but I considered it as compensation for the fact that I could not place mines on the enemy side of the objective.
|
Sharpe
|
Thanks, Horsy.

Spotter is a unit with SA "Spotter". There is no such unit in your game. Mines deploy up to 4 hexes from owner deployment zone.

I assume you're done and the only casualty was the poor, helpless paratrooper that you brutally attacked.
Don't worry about sppeding up the game. We have plenty of time. I jsut hope all is well on your end. I'm actually having a pretty good week for the first time in nearly a year.
