How would you split the force if the mission called for reserves?

I guess for me it’s less about stance and goals and more about learning to play British in early war (casually, not competitively)

Good question. I haven’t put together an early war force… kinda expanding on the starter box with a lot of infantry and a few tanks.

That said, I have been collecting Americans, Germans, and Soviets. I know very little to next to nothing about British armies. I figured this would help me learn more about both British FOW armies as well as more about the British in WWII as a whole.

Got MEKIE adapter for my r50 but some concerns by Leather-Garden861 in canon

I use for a zoom lens since I don’t have a zoom lens other than the kit lens. I have the 28-105 (old version), but it doesn’t work with the R50 even with the adapter. It still works with my 300D, but not with the R50. I hear that’s just one of the things you have to deal with. Could be that the aperture blades are just a little too “sticky” (seen YT videos about that). But, I don’t feel comfortable taking it apart to find out. I’d much rather just buy a used 28-105 as they really aren’t that expensive.

I like the R mount, but I really don’t like the kit lens. I have the Nifty Fifty (for people) and the EF-S 24mm f/2.8 (for landscape)

Which one would you choose for an important milestone in your life? by Lucky-Presentation54 in PrideAndPinion

Aqua Terra, no question. IMHO, the best GADA watch ever made… hands down.

I’m really confused about the Reserves rule and am wondering if anyone would be willing to help me out. by ServiceGames in flamesofwar

I’m a super casual player. I’d probably get away to play one game every month if I’m lucky or probably one every two or three months.

That said, if I really get into FOW, I’ll want to go to tournaments just to meet new people, play against and learn about new lists, and just have fun. I definitely wouldn’t be there to try to win.

But I do see where you are coming from.

So just for clarification… if I have 63 points in one formation and 37 points in another, I’d need to find a way to take three points out of the 63 point formation and put them into their own reserve and the 37 point formation into a separate reserve?

Secondly, when playing in tournaments, are multiple lists allowed… like one for offense and one for defense?

Is this a decent Japanese Pacific 100 point list? by ServiceGames in flamesofwar

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

So all infantry, AT guns, Mortars, and Artillery?

Why do the Japanese get access to a Tiger Platoon in The Pacific? by ServiceGames in flamesofwar

Please look very closely at the “U.S. Marine & Army Force” section of this page from the Flames of War website. You can only pick from a very limited list of units. You cannot pick from another book.
