@PainterTactical Lots of good tips here that will come in handy in my ongoing campaign. @TheGascon

Six rule mechanics that I think new players tend to under utilise when playing Chain of Command. #spreadthelard

@thecommandtent @AdeDeacon @Dozibugger Also, please bear in mind that @thecommandtent is trying to winkle some elite British paras out of a Normandy churchyard. He’s got neither smoke nor mortars. He’d really like an elite nerf by, say, Thursday.

Something to look at for our current CoC campaign? @TheGascon
Is there there a link or documentation about this where i could read more? @AdeDeacon

@AdeDeacon @TheGascon @Dozibugger Looking forward to it as well, although always having to remind myself that I really am thankful for time/effort put into playtesting to get it right and that waiting is worth it 😃

@thecommandtent @TheGascon Haha! Capitalising on the wisdom of @Dozibugger a number of draught platoon organisations have been play-tested over the last 12-18 months. Nobody is anticipating the release of The Market Garden Supplement more than me‼️

I post this to demonstrate I occasionally do, in fact, walk outside for recreational. The fact that I was searching for a Denkmal is not relevant.

Mock my now only-dimly-remembered pursuit of a Ph.D. in Tudor/Stuart history as you must, but today I received a Cestui Que Vie filing based on the eponymous act of 1666 and I knew what that was. So there.

@TheGascon Seems like something our group would like and even offer to playtest for 😃

A mate is getting What a Cowboy (as everyone seems to be doing) and we immediately start spinning "How about What a Commando..." to use it for WW2 as well. Anyone else thinking in that direction? #spreadthelard

What was it with the Commonwealth strapping large-bore howitzers to tank chassis? Between this and the AVRE, no hovel in Normandy was safe. @thecommandtent

Wherever @thecommandtent is RIGHT NOW, he just smiled. While @JohnLyn83159113 and @OJsdas shuddered.

One of Hobart's Funnies: A Churchill AVRE spigot-mortar armed engineer tank rolls through a French village on September 18, 1944. The mortar was 600mm long with a diameter of 241mm with a range of only a couple hundred meters max. The crews called it the "Flying Dustbin."

So this giant international package surprised me today. It seems to be from @DracoIdeasEN I see an unboxing for @ADragoons coming soon 😃
