I may have to pick up a copy, and will be watching the development of your project with interest. <br /><br />I've been sorely tempted to pick up some Terrainmaker hexes and give them a try. I have the Normandy terrain guide from GHQ, and the results they show in that booklet are fantastic.TimPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01779314106056396552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6137610513421609668.post-79114146850830635892015-10-28T13:12:07.530-05:002015-10-28T13:12:07.530-05:00Hi!

It's definitely no more difficult than Spearhead and I find the artillery rules in particular easier. Units/stands/chits are platoons, like in Spearhead. Combat uses a typical boardgame "sliding" CRT. The command system is the heart and simple enough - leaders are activated each turn who then activate units, as well as other leaders within their chain of command (adjacent hexes) who can then activate units. . . so a single activation with well placed leaders can have a cascading effect that is great fun to make happen! <br /><br />There is a one-page summary of the rules on the Avalanche site that captures the system pretty well. The rules are in their 4th edition so are pretty clean.<br /><br />I have both Terrain-Maker™ and Hexon™ hexes so will use one or the other - both have pros and cons. I am still considering Command and Colors:Ancients™ for 15mm so Ancients may get the Hexon™ as entrenchments and anti-tank ditches will be easier with the foam style terrain : )Cluck Amokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12702623056448793864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6137610513421609668.post-42167917974663744682015-10-26T10:22:47.360-05:002015-10-26T10:22:47.360-05:00Very interesting!

Will you be using a hex system like Terrainmaker, or making your own?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
