Paper Tanks Battle - PHASE THREE OF GAME - SHOOTING

-
After finishing of Phase II - Aiming / Target Selection we can start Phase IV - Shooting

Player throw dice (six number dice) - that person who had a higher score - start shooting to target selected as ONE (tokens with numbers). We can use also coin - which simplify selection.

I build pack of tokens and all are inside bag or box so you can select them randomly.




Tank Destroyed token.



Ricochet - Arrow UP mean tank who was a target can move back and use two or three Z (Smoke Grenades to mask his position). Smoke markers are located between tanks short distance (up to 5 cm).

That smoke markers stay whole next move / aim / shoot phases - and after that it will be removed to clean path. Good option to protect tank from being hit again next phase.


Ricochet - Arrow DOWN mean tank who was a target can move forward only (if can) and shoot back to enemy tank (Red "S"). Arrows UP/DOWN mean  - tank who was a target can move forward (if can) or backward. Option with S give 

Tank Track damage - can't move. When we perform next MOVEMENT PHASE we can remove that failure by throw dice - if you picked numbers on that token - tank track is fixed and tank is operational. If not - must stay that position.


Engine hit - speed must be reduced 1/2 (half). If you want to fix it in next MOVEMENT PHASE we can remove that failure by throw dice - if you picked numbers on that token 3/4 or 1/3 - engine is fixed.

Ricochet - Red arrow or P (Missed Shoot) with red arrow  - STRZAL (SHOOT BACK) - mean target tank can shoot back. Arrow DOWN (move forward).


P - Missed shoot. Target tank can shoot Smoke Grenade (1 or 3). Arrow UP  - can move back.

Hit in Turret / Cannon - Can't shoot until next Movement Phase..or Phases will throw 3 or 4, 1 or 4, 2 or 4,etc....

Below I added sets of token in English language.



Selection from my last play below... still playing...

German tank missed hit Russian T-34/85 and we selected token with three smoke grenades to hide that tank from being hit again.


Smoke grenade protect T-34 from enemy fire but on right second T-34 was hit from P.IV tank. That smoke grenade will stay that position next Movement / Aim phase - and will be removed phase after that.


Classic tank versus tank duel. Target One selected Ricochet with "Shoot Back" so German tank fired and player selected Turret Hit - from now Russian T-34 tank can't shoot until player will fix it.


Panther tank was selected as Third Target (Round) for shooting.



That tank was selected as a Target One and token picked from bag was Ricochet and arrows mean - that tank can move forward or backward and also red letter "S" - Shoot Back allow that player to fire back (only of enemy tank is within range). Shoot Back is only to his opponent in Round One.


During shooting phase in round one that T-34 was hit (chosen token) with turret and canon hit. Can't shoot until player will pick FIX numbers during next Movement Phase. 

Shooting Phase during last play. You can see Target Selectors with Round Number. Then player who throw higher score and start shooting picked from bag token Missed with Red Arrow - that mean Shoot Back....and he shoot back - so player picked... Ricochet token with "Shoot back" again and then you can see one tank was hit Track Tank (can't move) - second...Ricochet with three smoke grenades. 


Sample of shooting with Missed token and three Smoke Grenades which stay next Movement /Target Selector / Shooting phase. Of course if that tank will stay behind...

Flying Circus. Update

Hello again... Slowly changing some tokens to make that game simple. On FB I have group where I published more details about game, rules, etc... https://www.facebook.com/groups/566697750876378/?ref=share_group_link What was changed: 1. Simple altitude rules. Planes are mounted on stand with stick (I found up to 19.5 cm long) which gave me 10 different altitude levels. I started from 100m next stick was 300m up 2100. Between that I added only three altitude tokens and add +50 or +100 or 150m. So plane can move with one stick ( for instance 1500m and adding yellow token +100m it fly at 1600m.  Stands are simple picture of airplane model from top view with removed background printed on cardboard with size in 1:144 scale. Stand size allow to have high enough stick for planes.  Also I have added short S-stand (to fly straight) and T-turn stand -  used when airplane will perform any turns).  One plane kit has: stand, altitude sticks, two additionally stands called S-Stand (to fly straight) a...

Flying Circus Game.

In that part I would like to present my new Flying Consoles, stands and altitude sticks. Main reason is to minimize amount of game elements and also provide correct location of plane after move. Flying console has cut edges in each flying position with shape or size taken from stand dimension. Instead 11 sticks with length up to 20 cm I designed 3.5 cm mounts with so they can be joined together and place airplane on altitude from 100m to 2050m. If you have 10 planes you not need to have separate box with 100 sticks.. But still.. sticks are simple way to create altitude sticks instead short ones.. Also I have added ammunition counters so this time each attack depend on distance and side will cost player more or less rounds of ammo. Stand is 3.5 cm x 3.5 cm two cardboards (1.5mm) with four coins between. That's create solid and heavy platform so plane will not fall down. On top of stand I added picture of that plane from top view so player know which plane it is from bottom to top. S...

Panzer platoon

Using "flat" version of my tanks in scale 1:100 I decided to use platoon formation for German and Alliance tanks. Each platoon has Command Tank (CT) and two tanks from 1st section (1st) and 2nd section (2nd).  Summary - 5 tanks per platoon plus one SPG (STUG.III/IV) and Hellcat as platoon support.  They are controlled with 6c dice where each selection allow to control all tanks or only 1st or 2nd section.  Options are: One: Command tank - CT - player can move all tanks within Line Of Sight range. Those who are not in commander range, can move with Initiative option. Command tank can move w/o any limitation. Each side will be have maximum 15 Initiative tokens, which can be used by tank who is out of command range. That IT (Initiative Token) can be lost when player throw dice and result will be less than four or three (depend from scenario). Two: 1ST section tanks only - 1ST - that include support tank (SPG or Hellcat). Three: 2 ND section tanks only. Four: Initiative - IT2 - p...
