Panzerfaust

The first change was to one shot, really clear change.

Originally, the wording was that you replace the model with a model armed with either a pistol or a rifle, but that meant that if you'd paid points to give someone an SMG and a Panzerfaust, they're going to lose their SMG when they shot the Panzerfaust.

So that's just being clarified that you get to keep your original weapon.

I think everyone was playing this, to be honest, but it's nice that the

Looking forward to traveling down with the guys and playing some games, catching up with Gilly and the Albany lads.

Then, yeah, hopefully, hopefully, hopefully getting our names on the perpetual Panzerfaust.

Hey, Jono.

Or at least one of us, anyway.

Well, you know.

So the prize for Southern Thrust is that there is a perpetual trophy, which is a perpetual Panzerfaust.

It's a wooden Panzerfaust.

It's very cool.

So he'd be shooting at my guys in the building at plus six, and I'll be shooting back at him at plus two.

And sure enough, on my third Panzerfaust shot at it, I hit it and set it on fire.

And I think on the next turn, when he started moving infantry up to the building, he realized that, oops, that was a mistake.

As long as there's no wind change, I guess.

Some troops may creep forward before first light.

One British unit reports infiltrators carrying machine guns and Panzerfaust anti-tank weapons.

von der Heyte's men sweep over a few forward posts short of La Colonie, but British defensive fire, called down at 0830, stops them, and the attack stalls among the houses.

The eastern diversions ease little of the strain.

And their inability to grapple with more mature or complex themes because they are afraid of who they don't know is buying their game or not, like, that is just not, that's not on it.

Like, there are ti- there are times where I, I've, like, I've seen some World War II games where, like, there's been some kinda, like, intense subjects covered, you know? Like, one where there was, like, basically, like, forlorn squads of people who were, like, doomed, and they were, like, with Panzerfaust hiding in a, in a, in the woods, and they're like, "They're gonna die.

That's it." So there's darkness I've seen in these games in a way that's like, oh man, that's messed up.

But that's real, and there's value to engaging with those things and learning about them in a certain safe capacity.

I would like to see that become more of a thing because I feel like disposable weapons are becoming just more prevalent.

The amount of plans like extra burst Panzerfaust are used actively.

I use them constantly on the Black Arts.

I'm like, I throw Panzerfaust at you.

So disposable weapons and equipment are now showing up in places where it's easier and more useful to use them.

Speaking of that type of stuff,

Yeah.

Because all it takes is, is one bloke with a Panzerfaust, and, and if your infantry were there, then they're, they're clearing the hedgerow.

They're taking potshots at the people that need to be chased away or suppressed or, or killed one way or another.

Yeah.

Yeah

... 50 yards away, and there's an open field and the hedgerow on the other side of the open field, which is, I would guess, sort of 50 yards, 60 yards, something like that.

And from there, a German with a Panzerfaust has taken a shot at Stan's tank, misses, but knocks off the aerial.

So he's all right, but the aerial isn't, and what that means is it now got crew intercom, but the B net and the A net are gone.
