Yesterday night we tried for the first time VIDE at our club. we fielded a panzergranadier force vs Us Gi,, hq + 2 platoon, for support an Half track and a sniper for German and a Mortar and bazooka for the us.
I bought WaW but never played and as our first play, we tried primarily to check and learn the rules.
Overall a good game, which plays very fast, with a lot of option and a lot decision to be taken from players. is not a system which "autoplays" and we found this a very good thing.
Fire can be very effective unless you take some form of protection like hiding or taking cover, same for assault.
now some question.
- Area terrain: if a model is more than 2" inside an area like a wood cannot shoot, cannot be seen, and cannot be assaulted?
- the leader of a platoon moves his max but don't reach the area zone, can i arrange the soldiers inside the wood?
thanks for the good rules, i'm waiting for the list for Us paras and Italian Folgore, hope to post some pictures of the next play.
