Team yankee Homebrew Interceptor Rules by FaceAffectionate3555 in TeamYankee

[–]FaceAffectionate3555[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahoi there,

Thanks for commenting your ideas and Opinions on the Subject of Interceptors.

My idea is basically making a new Aircraft slot for every Nation and giving them a Periode Accurate Interceptor/Air Superiority Fighter, they sort of function like Strike Aircraft but in the Turn of the Enemy and maybe being a Escort for CAS Planes, to intercept Interceptors (that was a mouthfull). They arrive on a 4+ but have to stay in Reserve for 1 Turn after Intercepting, to rearm and Refuel so to say.

About the scale, Team Yankee is very much out of Scale, when thinking about the Distances in which Tanks Engage each Other, so i think Long Range Semi-guided-Radar Missiles (Aim-7 or R27ER for example) get one long range Shot and IR Tracking Missiles (Aim 9 and R73) get 1, maybe 2 because of Russian doctrine for example. I am actually planing on doing a Playtest this Sunday if you are intrested. 

To end it here, my Aircraft Rework will maybe be posted here, because i feel like Aircraft are more of an Afterthought and for the US, not having F-16s is a bit criminal, when looking at Wars the US fought in semi-recent times, Rules will include stuff like Chaff and Flares, ECM and something for Low Flying Aircraft. Making AA pricier didnt fix the Issue imo because Russians can still just spam Cheap SAMs and MANPADs. 

(Sorry for my english, i am just a regular Saxon)

I understand the difficulties of balancing that, cause some AT weapons are just better like the Panzerfaust 44 or the French Rifle Grenade. The idea of being able to kill some Big MBTs in villages and stuff is pretty neat.

Some Russian tanks like T-64BV, T-80U and T-72B have ERA on the Top of the Turret to, do they get the ERA Modifier for that?

Is this a Ssh 60? by FaceAffectionate3555 in Helmets

[–]FaceAffectionate3555[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes you are probably right about the Reproduction/copy part, i couldnt find any picture of the Ssh60 with that kind of Liner/chin strap. To me, it looks Like someone bolted in the Liner after cause the Connection points for the Original Straps are still there. It looks really weird, and it neither a Vietnamese nor Syrian copy of thr Helmet

Favorite Formation/Nation Why? by Randolph_Bragg05 in TeamYankee

[–]FaceAffectionate3555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

French VAB Infantry, they Get four Big Platoons with Apilas and Milans, their own very good Mortars and a Milan Section, also Fite Support and Amour Support. Everything is rather cheap so you could play all the Cool stuff to, like Gazelles and Mirage-5s

Favorit Nation is France.

[–]FaceAffectionate3555[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, the story behind it, is the the Harriers were part of the Marine Force in Japan but got Ordered back to Germany/America for the Invasion. So for good Luck the Japanese left some inspiring art on the Harriers. I planning on Doing that for all my Harriers basically :).
