set-up of the monster

Counter density is high, but that's only the first draft. Setup is also based on the peacetime barrack allocations, which would surely not be the actual unit locations once tension had risen to the point of war breaking out. I have a couple of options in mind which will be tested over the coming days.

...the full monty attached shows an orgiastic mass of counters... don't be afraid of keeping an eye on this, evolution is an ongoing process.

First ground unit setup (partial)

The OOB for Ground Units is done, counters are done and the first massive playtest is scheduled for next weekend.

Have a look at the setup of NATO forces of Belgium, Denmark, the UK and the Netherlands.

Before you shoot away, I know it looks crowded, but most of these units are Batallions and should not survive the first game-turns.

Eagle versus Flogger

A soviet air mission is intercepted south-east of Kassel
by the US 22nd TFS from Bitburg.
The Soviet Air Mission is composed of 1 strike unit and 1 escort unit,
both MiG-27. The US planes are F-15C aircraft on anti-air mission.
Soviet Antir-Air strength 4, DR = 4, which would result in 1 hit on the US unit.
The ECM rating of the US unit is 7. DR is 2, 5 less which means 0 hits.

US Anti-Air strength is 8. DR = 0, which would result in 5 hits.The soviet ECM rating is 5 and the DR of 9 means the unit has to takeall hits. 5 hits are more than the hit rating of 4. The unit is destroyed and the counter removed.

The remaining MiG unit continued its strike mission and attacked the CRC Erndthebruck, alas it missed the target completely.

First air-air combat








First Fight - Air War - PLAYTEST

East German air units, JBG77 and MFG28, have entered the West-German airspace in direction of Hamburg.

The E-3A of 1st Squadron patrolling over Denmark have detected the attacking force of Su-17M4, as well as the CRC Visselhövede south-west of Hamburg.

The ground-air defence missiles launched have taken a heavy toll on the intruders. 4 hits have been achieved, the attackers have aborted their mission and returned to their airbase.
