Whoops - working at cross purposes. Thought you were talking about Arracourt! Special tanks just means an extra unit, thats all

Actually, seeing as you might have a reserve or two, I’d best step aside for this first game. Sorry to be a pain but I’ve got a few other (non-gaming) things to focus on and trying to setup to run Fortune and Glory here soon too.

OK, @RossM do you have a scenario preference? Options seem to be
Arracourt (biased to Allies)
Moyland Wood (a bit more complex)
No preference happy to be on a team that’s doomed to lose.

Well in that case, lets play First Assault Wave (Omaha Beach) - only 19% Allied victories!

OK time for coin flips.
Heads - Arracourt
Heads - Griffster77 is Allies (south side of map, olive drab, facing right), RossM is Axis (north side of map, feldgrau, facing left).
Icons are mostly from game-icons.net as usual.
Rules can be found here
I will shortly PM both players with their initial hands.
And I should have mentioned - until I have time to code up custom dice, a d6 is:
1-2 Infantry
3 Armour
4 Grenade
5 Star
6 Flag
Can you remind me how to roll dice?
@RogerBW asked for a die roll:
Using square brackets rather than braces:
{roll 5d6}
which I’ll put below:
5d6: 4 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 5 = 13
Note that the post becomes owned by the “system” user, so make sure you’ve got everything sorted before you send it. Also this doesn’t work if you write a post then edit the die roll command into it, only when you first post it.
@Griffster77 asked for a die roll:
3d6: 4 + 5 + 1 = 10
To confirm, the dark green things are hills?

Yup, I may put together a better icon at some point.

Logically it makes sense, they just look a bit like sandbags. But they would be yellow!
My right flank is the one with two hills in?
You’re looking from top down. So your left flank is the one with River

Yup, RossM’s left/right are reversed relative to the board image. (Because you’re on a common deck of command cards I think this is necessary - though I could change the text in your PMs to say west/east if that would help?)
I’ll put a label on each unit in the next iteration of the map.
Play Move Out!
So now you need to specify the four infantry units you’re activating…
The four not in cover please.
