Battlegroup - T34 Question
« on: May 31, 2025, 06:20:24 PM »
It's been hot today, so maybe my brain has stopped working.
But.
In Battlegroup the T34 gets the 'T34 Mobility' special ability.
But I'll be damned if I can see what that is.
Can anyone help?

Dice Roller, the special rule is on P38 of the "Barbarossa" supplement.

"When rolling for crossing difficult terrain and obstacles, a T34 may re-roll the D6 is it wishes. The Russian player may always take the lower of the two dice rolls".

As I guess this was to reflect the T34s better mobility compared to comparable German tanks in 1941 I'm not sure such a rule rolls over to later periods vs tanks such as the Panther, or when the T34 weighed more as the T34/85?

Regards.

Lovely, cheers.
I have the Kursk one but it's not in there. Or I missed it.
Either way, thanks.

Hi, I have the PdF of "Kursk" and the special rules are the very last page, after the rear cover.. It is rather odd and it looks like they were almost an afterthought !

Oh yeah, so it is!
You're right, it does like someone forgot it and just added it at the end.
