The Competition & Teaser Thread

[Strela]

However, numerous smaller units mean more units to move and fire with each turn, which could discourage some people from playing larger scenarios, if they feel they have to micromanage many units in order to use them effectively (moving a whole bunch of 3 gun units instead of a handful of ~6 or ~12 gun units, if not even bigger ones). I don't mind, personally, but I can see why some might feel it's a bit cumbersome for a whole corps.

Their pictures are, anyway.

Where possible (on attack) the Infantry & AT Guns are stacked together to allow them to be moved and fired as you suggest as a single entity. Usually they lag a mobile attack and are more useful in set piece assaults or on the defence. I was concerned about the counter clutter also, but in many scenarios we have only provided the units that were actually engaged and some supporting arms or specialist troop never make an appearance. I guess all will be revealed once the scenarios are available.


As far as leaders, all regimental units and above (and in some cases battalions) have named leaders. The appropriate leader photos has been used where available. This means the order of battle has hundreds of historical leaders in the correct command slot. We first started this named leader approach in PzC Moscow '42.

Here are the photos of the men in question and the associated named component.
