Chain of Command

[Fenton]

I asked Richard several weeks ago, and yes, he was thinking about France 1940. I hope it will come soon, as most of my lovely minis are 1940 too ! 

(I had too much work to read CoC since yesterday !    )

I will question him about it on the 31st....1939-1940 would be my favourite period of WW2

Greetings

I know Rich was obtaining a copy of a French pre-war training manual in order to identify the requisite national tactical factors so I know it's in the frame. 

I'm looking forward to using French myself but do have late war to keep me going.

Regards

There are already a number of 1940 lists on the TFL Yahoo group

I had a look n the files section , doesn't seem to be anything there

[Nellkyn]

I've got hard and soft CoC now. 

PDF turned up this morning and the hardcopy was sat at home when I got home from work last night.

Now I have the rules I can start planning the order of MDF bases for Leon.

The Eagle has landed . Fingers crossed I might get home at a reasonable time and have a good read of these.

I has its! I hasss the precious! It's minesss!... 

...ahem...

Anyway, the print book also came with 4 massive chunky dice and a load of plastic markers I didn't even realise where included! Hope I haven't paid more than I intended & got a higher level version... but they'll come in handy!

My word sir, is this the tone one sets in polite conversation? There is at least one lady present. 
Actually, carry on that man!

Sounds like you bought the top of the range bundle by accident, you twonk.  No Centurions for you!

[Wulf]

Well, I paid £22 for it, so I'm happy

The same happened to me. I've checked my invoice and I ordered the rules only option, £22, yet received the CoC Big Bundle, £33.00 . I also asked for the pdf (which I received) rather than the tablet 'extra' that you could choose from, yet today I received the tablet version as well. Being an honest fellow I informed Richard at TFL, who said it was their mistake and as I was honest I could keep the tablet version . Honesty does pay!

There do seem to have been a few orders which got extra bits by accident - TFL are asking that these extras be sent back to them, and they will refund your postage (there are some postings on the yahoo group about this).

[Last Hussar]

Be gentle with the poor man. 1700 physical copies supplied, plus all the e-versions!

He may be a little bewildered.

[Fenton]

So does it read as well as its been described on the net

[Wulf]

Yes, it does, really. I expected something more complex, but, with the exception of the force selection which I've not got into yet, it reads very sensibly and simply (although there are a lot of 'special' rules for specific nationalities, teams, weapons, etc). I'm used to much bigger unit scales and so ground scales, so the basic rule that almost every weapon has unlimited maximum range (but a variety have special rules for closer ranges)  came as a bit of a surprise to me, and simplified everything...
