Vehicle weapons

[sangennaru]

first of all thanks for the english version


i'm not saying that you rules are crap. I LOVE them, i love the system and i think that it is Much different from all the others, and that's why i like it.


what i wanted to point (and it seems that you really don't get it) is that (in the ITALIAN version) there are some holes in the rules, and other rules are just written as notes in some less important paragraph.

you understand that i am a customer, i used your product and i found really hard to find out the mechanism of some parts. some of them simply are not present, others are hidden.
i know that your rules are complete, that's why they won so many prices, and they worth them!

but for a simple user they are REALLY hard to understand in some points. at least the italian version.
if you want i can try to translate better the paragraph related to the vehicles (i have a really good italian and a decent wargame experience), but please make it readable in the next versions.

i'm not saying what you should have done or what you should do.
i'm saying: "i paid and i am unhappy for the form, even if i love the game: that's frustrating! "

we were four, we red the rules for several hours during the game, and we don't understand many points. that's all.





for the rules: you dint' answer the main point: which are the stats of the crew member? what do i need to add for the HMG turret? do i have to add the combat score of the tank? isn't it too much?? for 130-150 points i can have a combat 6 turret that is far too powerful!


thanks for your time
Jack

The cost for the tank and crew is 150 ish giving an overall Q of 3 when working out stuff you don't have to buy anything for the tank. Point is game wise they arenot going to last long when there is anti tank stuff around.

With vehicles like a jeep with hmg this is transport for your squad, has a q3 driver and weapon needs to be crewed by your squad.

As Andrea is Italian and I believe his friend did the translation I presumed it was fine. Just been playing some Italian rules translated into English and am facing perhaps the same sort of things as you.

[sangennaru]

ok, so it is right that the hmg in the tank has an overall C of 6 or did you meant C instead of Q?



actually, i talked to andrea about some points, i wrote him a mail yesterday, and i guess he will answer soon!

thanks for your support!

Oh, pretty hot discussion here. Nothing to add on your "crew problem" but, as french player (english version of the rules) I must say that there is some points that I couldn't understand properly (about activation i.e. but then, M. Jones told me what I needed to know) and it does not help that you (both) get angry about "misundestood".
The "i send my email the 14th and did not receive anything" thingy is very annoying for someone to read because it often means "hey man, I'm waiting for YOU to DO something" and I'm sure M. Jones has a lot a work aside, but I have already been in sagennaru position, and being "without an answer" is very frustrating.
Calm down and enjoy Flying Lead. Never forget that M. Jones is not forced to help us and I thank him for this.

I hope my bad english doesn't hurt your eyes.

Thanks for reading

EDIT : just saw there was a second page on this topic, sorry for trouble ! Enjoy Flying lead !

actually i wasn't angry because i didn't recieve a mail... i was just wondering if i used the right address or not! ^_^

i told that many times, i LOVE this game and i do not intend to change ruleset, and that's why i find all the lacks in the rules and ask there. my only disappoitnment is that in some parts there are holes that can ruin an evening with friends (or at least the game part... the dinner was great! ), and that is not really suitable for a non-free ruleset. nothing more
