Topic: First few game impressions
Got to play this a few times yesterday and we had a good time.
After the first 2 games I broke out my Memior 44 map and terrain. The Memoir board is only 13x9 so I changed the set up area to 1 row instead of 3, this way the no-mans land in between is still 7 hexes. All of the extra terrain really helped the infantry units stay alive and get into the fight.
One thing that took a few games to get used to is the range of units. After playing Memoir for years, having units with ranges up to 8 was quite shock.
1 option we tried was a battlefield HQ, for 40 points. With an HQ, you can roll 3 dice and take the highest 2 when rolling for command points. Still tweeking the point cost for this. Stats: 0 movement, 3 steps and armor 4+.
