Hi I don't seem to be able to find this optional rule, could you give a page number

Take care

Andy

It's in a barely noticeable side bar - it might even be in CWC! If someone's got a copy of the rules handy they'll be quicker than me finding it as my books are in the loft somewhere

For me and a constant question that gets raised are base sizes   I know it doesn't matter so much, but would love to finally address that once and for all...even if I have to rebase

Some of the late war lists you can actually field more of one tank than the points available. ie you can field 12 x 120 point tanks per 1000 points available.

Not sure how I missed this Orcs.

You can field 12 x 120 pt tanks in armies from 1000 to 1999 points. That's not a mistake, surely. Taking that many tanks on anything but a table as devoid of terrain as a billiard table might be

That's something we've addressed, there'll be recommended basing sizes in the new rules.  We'll also be able to package up armies complete with bases, like we're doing with Warband.  I'll check the current draft and dig out the new base sizings.

Good man

Please do, I have a pile of infantry waiting to be based and no idea on base sizes or number to put on each base. Itching to get them based and painted ready for when the rules are released.

First off - Hi

Basing is of no effect in BKC/CWC/FWC. I use 30 x 30 for all but infantry, and 30x20 for infantry, because I already had stuff based on those sizes. Others base their tans on 20x40, and infantry on 40 x20. All play equally well.

This is the 'recommended' sizings, people can of course use whatever they prefer as well:

Vehicles 50x25mm (1 vehicle)
Infantry 50x25mm (5 infantry)
Artillery 50x50mm (1 gun+crew)
Cavalry 50x25mm (5 cavalry)
Command 50x50mm

Ahaaa but those are for 10mm, most of us use 6mm.......

IanS

I suspect more people than you think might play in 10mm, Ian - we'd given up in 6mm, but all play 10mm for AVBCW, French Indo-China etc.

If we do 6mm it's on 30mm square for everything (barring late added HQs etc) solely as a hangover from other sets. Anything new-ish (last four or five years) is 10mm and on "standard" BKC wide bases.

what about HQ's

40mmx40mm

I'm waiting on some of the final feedback from our playtesters, then I can work up the final draft for the printers.  We want to make sure we've ironed out any potential kinks before we go to print.  I know this is taking longer than planned, but we want to make sure we get it right.

And one of those is me - mea culpa - but work & real life (vastly over-rated IMNSHO) has got in the way... I will be adding my thoughts into the mix in the next 48 hours or so...
