Synopsis

Bullets whizz past your ear, hand-grenades explode with a deafening roar, and the chatter of machine-guns snaps greedily at your heels as you dive for cover. The enemy is getting around your flank and you are pinned down. Your men look to you for an order. Give the right one, and you’ll all be eating a hot meal. Make the wrong one, and you’ll all become food for the enemy’s guns. World War Two was filled with brutal battlefields where such decisions were made from minute to minute. This book looks at how you can recreate those battles on the tabletop and wargame their outcomes to put your tactical abilities to the test. In this volume we look at: - The history of our civilization’s greatest conflict - Choosing, collecting and painting your troops - Rules sets and what wargaming involves - Basic and advanced tactics that can be used by wargamers - Tactical exercises to keep your skills sharp - How to find opponents Written by Justin Tonna, who has over three decades of wargaming experience, this volume not only helps you to get into World War Two Wargaming, but it contains tactics and advice that will make you a better wargamer. Dare you go to war on the tabletop without it? After all, your opponent might be reading it...

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Justin Tonna has been wargaming since he was old enough to be trusted to roll a dice, rather than try to eat it. In the three decades he has pursued the hobby, he has wargamed in just about every period, and amassed more rule systems and miniatures than is even remotely reasonable. His resulting shortage of living space is testament to his consuming passion for tabletop battles. World War Two has, and perhaps always will, hold a special place in his wargaming heart. Justin currently lives on the historic island of Malta with his wife and daughter, and far too many animals.
