Anyone who played or still plays the Old Angriff WW2 rules. The rules dont seem to cover motorcylce, jeep, truck, Bren Carrier or even German halftrack speeds. Does anyone remember how they handled this when they played the rules? |

You could use the stats from a vehicle with comparable speed. For instance the Panther's top speed of 30 is only 2mph slower than the 251/1. So I'd use 5/10 speed for it. |

BuckeyeBob has it right. We considered most automobiles / motorcycles to have a speed of about 60mph on an improved black top road. So you just find a vehicle with a similar speed and use that. Eventually we made up a chart based on MPH of the vehicles in the game as a reference for whenever this problem came up. Mike Bunkermeister Creek Bunker Talk blog |

Great suggestion, thanks. I like these rules, they have a very bare bones simplicity that is nostalgic. |

Actually depends on edition of the rules you have, From the fifth edition. UK Universal Weapons Carrier 30mph 5/10 German Halftrack 251 30mph 5/10 US Halftrack APC M3 50mph 8/17 Hope that helps some |

I have the third edition. Sounds like they added some interesting info to the fifth edition. |
