All,
So here is the fourth playtest of my homegrown WWII, Platoon-Level rules. I've had three great fights so far, and this one was no different, the rules are doing what I want them to do, which is to say, reflecting my own personal biases of what small unit combat is or should be like ;)
So, the Platoon Leader is still out, recovering from his wounds, so SSgt Saunders, is once again leading the platoon out, this time on a raid to knock out a German Observation Post, even snatch a prisoner if they can, with a little side mission brought on by a huffy Captain from the Division staff, as well.
American machine gunners (atop hill at top right) keep a wary eye out as 2nd Squad pushes forward (center), into No-Man's Land.
US forces (Sgt Littlejohn's 3rd Squad in the trees at top left, Sgt Caje's 1st Squad in the craters at left, and the Platoon Sergeant and Anti-Tank Team in the craters at top center) close in on the target building…
And slam a rocket into it, trying to silence that infernal MG-42 team in there!
To see how the fight went, please check the blog at:

I hope you like it, please drop me a note and let me know what you think, and I'm about ready to share the rules with everyone, so I need some recommendations on what to call them!
V/R,
Jack
