Yes, Saturday April 10th.  Was thinking that we should at least get at least battalion on each side (4500 points), Allied on one side and Axis on the other, including high command as well.

Hmm wonder if I can field 4500 points all by myself,
not sure but I think I can get close.

Is this late war or mid war ?

Thanks

I would like to play.  I have 1750 pts of US Armor (more if I make them veterans).  I have never played the game before, I am just starting, so I will understand if you don't want me to join your big game at this point.  I am trying to get someone to play this week/weekend or next week so I can get some exp.  Let me know if I am ok to play or not.

It's late war.  Design a force with up to 1500 poins, but include your support as a seperate listing.  support gets allocated out by the overall commander and is NOT a part of your normal force, combat and weapons platoons are yours to do with as you wish, but the support options are not.  This also includes regimental weapons platoons as well.

Anyone and everyone is welcome to play.  The plan is for us to bring the "leftover" points that others do not bring.

1500 points :-(

I was hoping to field all my tigers,
by the way turns out I can field 4500+ painted all by myself :-D

Maybe I bring my Paras, let me know what side you need me on.

Thanks

I picked up an army a couple months ago that I've been working on playing. I'd be interested in getting in a learning game at some point.

Just let me know what weekday evening works for you, I can make most days happen as long as we are done by 7pm.

600 points are a good format for that in my mind, and a lot of fun overall.

Thanks

I will be there

[bartschy]

Hi,

so at what time is this going to start and be done ?

Thanks

I would think the earlier the better, but I would have to refer to John on this one.

I want to start setting up at 10am, and get going by 11ish or so, plan on bringing down my terrain from home and use it as well as the stuff at the store to set up the table.

John,

Nadin and I are game. Nadin has her 4500 pts. of Germans ready and I con easly field 4500 pts. of Americans or Russians. Let us know which one for the Allies please. Both forces will be armor units. See you there.

Hi,

I think the intend was 4500 points a side not 4500 a player, sounds tempting tho :-D
John told me to make 1500 point list

[Tony F]

remember, we can always add more table space for more people.

Ooohhh,

Well, that is a horse of a different feather then. 1500 a person is very easy then.

Ok, we can do that really easy then.
