Title: two batreps, CoC and FoF
Post by: ronan on 15 September 2013, 04:26:52 PM
"Coc and FoF"   looks like a coded sentence !  :D

We had our second CoC game ( where I was mistaken with the overwatch rules.. )
It was "France 40", although the official lists aren't known, we used house rules.

And we had another game with Force on Force - and our house rules  ;) - always in France 40 ( our campaign is frozen since july  :( )

( not only pendraken minis, I'm sorry about that.   :-[ )

Nice report.

We also played CoC in 1940 with 10mm armies, this weekend, though we did British vs Germans.

In another strange co-incidence I also got the overwatch rule wrong!

Do you have your French list written up? I started work on one last week but didn't finish it as all my French are multi based

Do you mean lists for CoC ? no, we started from the russian list, and decided what could be used. The French official lists are awaited in a few days.
for FoF ? it's mainly campaign-based, but I could give you the team organization ?

Yes for CoC

Interesting to use the Russian list. Did you force the French to be a single squad, or let them split into teams?

Although I don't think we have used the teams from a squad independently yet

yes, they were able to split into teams.
And they were able to group their "tromblons VB" ( but i didn't managed to use this special rule). Under the senior officer, with 2 CI,  they should fire a "volley" of rifle grenades. They were trained this way. That's the only rule we decided.

A rifle grenade special rule sounds very appropriate - what where the details you decided for it?
