We think so! – we had 3 more games at the club and I think we are getting the hang of it now! – I have done a report on the first 2 games at this link
Enjoy it! |

I can only agree. Fun game. |

Sounds like fun – curses! Another game I am doomed to buy |

We've played it twice now--it is indeed a fun game! Definitely geared for late war tanks, and not tankettes or anti-tank rifles. Grelber |

If you and your friends have a tank or two each they you're good to go. |

It is sort of fun. Kind of little filler. If we had only this to play at the club it'd be very sad. WAT is a kind of arcade tank game in a WWII costume. I don't think we will play it for too long. But yes, give it a go. It is…fun. |

Great game, yep a bit simple, but great fun. Repaint, I too would be sad if this were the only game around, but it's not and it is a hoot. Like all games my buddies and I play, we'll play it till we're sick of it and switch to another game. |

We are planning an informal East Front campaign. I imagine we may have had enough after that, and it will go away for a while. But it's simple enough to bring out again after several months, and I'm sure we will. |

I am always amused by the TFL naming convention of thinly veiled rude phrases!! |

I have just done a new points system for WaT, and we will try it next week. If anyone wants a look at it please e-mail me at richardbradley5@gmail.com! I hope it will make the game balance….fairer! |

"I hope it will make the game balance….fairer!" As always it depends on the terrain. More open terrain favors the Germans, Denser terrain favors the British & Americans. |

That is interesting – how do you balance a game where you have one tank a piece? Will be interesting to see how this works. |
Herkybird | 14 May 2018 11:02 a.m. PST |
how do you balance a game where you have one tank apiece? The points system in the original rules works fine in balancing 1:1 games, where it fails is in multiple tank games, as our games on Saturday showed. I doubt the terrain affects results over much, as both sides have to acquire, aim and shoot with the same difficulty, and the randomness of the command dice/initiative dice make much more difference, I feel. |

I ordered this from a retailer in the UK, waiting for it to ship across the pond. I watched a couple of U-tubes on the game. Interesting concept, I'll give it a try with my 15mm collection. Leave the 28's for Bolt Action. I may have have to tinker, we'll see? |
