Small Battle Report just went up on my YouTube channel.
Just a heads up, no professionals were in the forces, these were regular units 😊🙂.

The AFDMOEC. It has a ring to it. It's not the size that matters, it's where put out it.

A new thread to which to move Steve's report.

Steve,

Not having played Reloaded, I didn't realise how 'viscous' the morale rolls could be...the Militia Unit (objective 3), just legged it without being fired on?

Or did I miss understand?

In truth, I think this could happen in original AK. The imposed morale mechanic is one of the genius level rules in AK. Such a simple idea but incredibly thematic.

Militia with an imposed marker, are already in 2 dice so 2 fails will see them retire without saying boo to a goose.

When I play AK47 Republic, either version, my regular tanks always fail moral tests and often rout before firing a shot. :( :)

Don't forget the +1 dice for having 3 bases in the open Sean 😬.
So yes Howard they were not shot at, 3 dice rolled, 3 fails and seeing they were already on the board edge after failing a test the turn before they fled the table as I had no more militia units left for any reserves to go into 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️😊.

Hi Julian,
Thank you. For the AK47 day next month I don't plan to use tanks, I'll use armoured cars instead in a mixed AFV and infantry unit.

I have a cunning plan, whether it works is another matter. :)

Best wishes,

Its funny but as a cold war BAOR soldier from late 70's till 90's I don't recall seeing this one before. Its actually quite good compared to the ones we did see.
