Trust me, Lesson learned. Had the game not been so add-hock I'd likely have thought about my set-up and forces a bit more. The game was really more of a...

Well, everyone went quiet again. For us Americans I'm sure it's Labor Day holiday quiet - everyone being gone on vacations. I'll post anyhow. My friends and...

Well, without seeing it in action it sounds worth lookign in to. However, the problem is that Infantry on Infantry is already slow- going as it is. You...

CORRECTION ... MoS ... I've now realised I was giving a bonus to hit AND higher damage! So my ideal rule would be: When firing with a RoF weapon, roll to hit...
I'm not sure I'm sold on that, myself. I mean first of all it seems like it'd slow combat down some. My problem is that with SMGs at point blanks it really...

Ah, I see your point now. Thisis also going to prevent quad 20mm from taking out takns and such as well. Each shot is being treated as an individual shot. My...
... IMO, the infantry in GK is far too resilient. It should take a couple of hits at most to put a man out of action. BTW, I have been toying with the idea of...
... couple of hits at most to put a man out of action. ... My idea might improve that, given that there will be more hits (and the average infantryman has no...
This has probably been asked, but, sorry, I'm new to the group. Has anyone found good sources for decals for 1/100th? I can find plenty of info on painting...

A somewhat simpler rule was proposed somewhere by Mr. Saskdemoteam, it was roguhly this: Infantry firing non anti-tank weapons do not add ROF to the damage ...

I can understand your desire here, but keep in mind too that with the abstracted ROF you are not getting as many hits as you likely would. I mean 10 men with...
Beware the curse of genericism. I think it is a mistake for game systems tryign to make one rule fit all sorts. I honestly think that people make too huge a...

What if infantry squads were given Damage Threshholds instead of damage points. I mean, it could work very much like behicles. When you do light damage to a...
