The September Campaign v.2.1.1 Update 3/12/12

[Anatoli]

Another update, thanks to my buddy David who pointed out that  top armour 0 tanks cannot properly assault - which would make the Soviet tanks extremely nerfed. It seems that the new version 3 rules of Flames of War has made top armour 0 extremely useless and unable to assault if you took hits in defensive fire, which was not my intention.

I based the stats of all vehicles in the book on actual armour thickness and comparison with tanks in the Blitzkrieg book, hence whenever the armour was below 10mm I rated it as zero and so on. I didn't consider that the game mechanics created a weird anomaly that had nothing to do with actual armour thickness. As such I have now given top armour 1 to all tanks, and all heavy armoured vehicles.

Some of you may also wonder what the hell happened to the campaign section "Poland in Flames". It is half finished but I pretty much stopped working on it mid October because of personal reasons – mainly being distracted by looking for a job, a task that is just soul draining. I haven’t been in the mood neither have I had the energy to work on the book since then. I still want to (and will) finish it, it’s just that it takes a LOT of time writing on the books and I can’t spare time as much as I could during the summer months when I was working on the September Campaign v.2 OoB.

In any case, you can get the updated version of the OoB book over at my blog here: http://anatolisgameroom.blogspot.se/2012/09/the-september-campaign-v2-orders-of.html
