Pete,

Any particular reason why there's no reserves or ambush rules in BKC 2? I can't remember if they were in BKC, (don't think so)but thought they worked well in CWC.

I'm also thinking of using the hide rule for Russians using sewer movement in Stalingrad. Any comments?

Rgds,

Si

He used the Ambush rules in CWC, though the new visibility rules allow for ambushing. You will need to plot were your defending units are on a map and only deploy them when they fire or are spotted.

Yeah, I'd kind of guesed that but rather liked the dummy units in CWC. I particularly enjoyed coming arty with ambushes. Lastly I liked the Reserves rule as a means of reinforcement for a defender. Seems a shame not to have it available.

It should be reasonably easy to adapt from CWC. With hidden units we allow artillery to be fired at likely ambush areas.
