…or Shortest Battle Report Ever.

Fritz was proud of his promotion to tank commander. No Russians in sight, he accelerated across the street toward the cover of a ruined building on the other side. He was confident in his crew and their…

I set out to test some modified damage results for vehicle combat in nuts. I never got to. The game ended after the first half turn.

What about Georgi in his T-34? Was it his first day as a TC? If so, it started out well by bagging Fritz's panzer…

The old GW 'Dark Futures' ('not' Car Wars) game used to have rules for superchargers/boosters/whatnot exploding when the engine was started.

I played the same game of Nuts! twice – same scenario (ruined city, German tank platoon against Russian T-34s). In the first game, the Russians failed to move and were shot to pieces within two turns, the game lastet for 15 minutes.
In the next game (same forces, same scenario) both sides fought hard and only a lucky shot through a ruined house knocked out the last German tank after an almost two hours lasting game.
