I agree with Grimm. I've hardly ever encountered a game where you could come up with suitable ad hoc rules like you can with T&T. It really is a comfortable game to play, watch and be witty about...

For morale :
Dont forget to check morale every time you want to activate a unit with more markers than soldiers.

I did not realise that was the rule. As far as I can see it is not explicitly stated that way in the book. We had been testing just once, at the time when the unit accrues more suppressions than the number of men. That certainly alters things a bit.  :)


If you don't mind I'd like to ask a question about vehicles and planes. We haven't used them before but probably will do soon. Do the suppression-pinning rules work exactly the same way for vehicles as for units of people? When the suppressions rack up to more than the crew of the vehicle they have to test or be pinned? Also are planes subject to any kind of morale? Obviously if pinned they aren't going to hang there "pinned down" in the sky, but how do you work it? Do planes get suppressed? Can they be routed in any way? Or do they ignore morale altogeher?

Thanks!

Plynkes !

As a T+T player of the early stages I presume you own the first edition.
This rule is explained in the 2nd edition. I can send it to you if you like.
I missed it to point at this important rule clearly in the first edition.

Planes can not be pinned. They are more a deadly encounter.

The vehicles rule work as you described them. But again we didnt work that out clearly. I will do this soon on new rules updates on the website.

Crewmembers can pile up SM when they fail the scoretest they must bail out.

Sorry for not making this clear. It just did not happen very often during our testgames.

Cheers
Björn

Thanks, mate. That all sounds good to me.
