  1. Counter Errata: The German lePaK 41 - AT Gun 40LL should not be Underscored.

    C4.3 .....The German 28LL and 40LL Guns use the APCR Basic TH# Modification even if firing HE..... Errata: delete the Underscored line under "40" and also on Page H24, German Ordnance Listing.

    Germ Multi-Applicable Ordnance Notes (for the lePaK 41)

    A. Due to the design of its armor piercing projectile, this gun uses the APCR To Kill Table and Range modifiers for its To Kill DR vs AFV, unless using HE. In addition, it always uses the Basic TH# Modification (C4.3) for its To Hit DR--even if it fires HE--and is not subject to APCR Depletion Numbers.

    Här finns länk på instruktions häftet, för den tyska 2-2-8 Crew, till 4.2cm PaK 41.

    https://www.aboutww2militaria.com/fallschirmjager-anti-tank-gun-4-2-cm-pak-41-shooting-instruction.html

    Ett utdrag ur instruktionshäftet Översättning är knacklig, men även förstålig på tyska. Som bekräftar att lePak 41 hade spränggranter och inte bara Panzar brytande granat patroner.

    6. Die panzerbrechende Munition der 4.2 cm Pak 41 ist die Hartkerngranate (HK). Verwendung bis 800 m Entfernung.

    Sprenggranate (Sp) können erzielen behindernde Wirkung beim beschuss von waffenblenden. Sehschlitzen und Optik, vernichtende Wirkung bei gunstigen treffern auf die Motorentluftung am Heck (Inbrandschiessen).

    7. Muntion:

    HK = 4.2 cm Pzgr. Patr. 41

    Sp = eingefuhrte Sprgr. Patr

    6. The armor-piercing ammunition of the 4.2 cm Pak 41 is the hard core grenade (HK). Use up to 800 m distance.

    Explosive grenade (Sp) can achieve obstructive effect when shelling weapon shields.

    Visual slits and optics, devastating effect on favorable hits on the engine venting at the rear (incendiary shooting).

    7. Ammo:

    HK = 4.2 cm Pzgr.Patr.41

    Sp = imported Sprgr.Patr

    Minns i början av Köpenhamn turneringen - då fick man även räkna på antal monterade kartor man orkade bära med sig...

    Minns även att vi som tog med sig det mesta fick även låna ut mycket grejer, speciellt mounted mapboards, och i viss mån brickor och overlays.

    Valde 9-15. Blir mer variation😂

    Enda gången som jag deltagit i en weekend turnering med mer än 8 nationaliteter var i Arnhem för ca 15 år sedan. 11 nationaliteter var med, man får strycka ett scenario per runda , minns att man strök scenarior för att minska antalet nationer man skulle slippa kånka på, fick ned siffran 11 till 7. Brukligt är att man stryker scenarior man inte vill spela men den gången var det annorlunda.

  5. OBA Varianterna tillkom på grund av Bad chits drawn: a) 2R chits drawn in a row

    b) 1B & 2R or c) 1R & 1B & 1R

    Artikeln bör därför baseras på det, dvs 2R chits drawn:

    a) (Pleva ) Russ OBA 5B / 4R and Germ OBA 8B / 5R 

    a) (LHR 11) Russ OBA 5B / 1R and Germ OBA 8B / 2R

     

    1B and 2R chits or 1R & 1B & 1R drawn:

    b) (Pleva) Russ OBA 4B / 4R and Germ OBA 7B / 5R 

    b) (LHR 11) Russ OBA 4B / 1R and Germ OBA 7B / 2R

    Möjligen framgår det i artikeln varför Pleva OBA regel tillkom, om det är för att rätta till 2 red chits drawn - early, så har den misslyckats fundamentalt, med att göra en "Naval OBA rule with more red chits twist".

    Enligt artikeln jag har korrekturläst - med statistik (där en professor i matte/statisk hjälp till, så jag tror siffrorna torde stämma) där man jämför "vanliga" reglerna med Plevas variant, drogs följande slutsatser - om man tittar på German/Russian Normal Ammunition.

    Med upp till 12 chit draws (artikeln jämför mellan 12 och 6 draws hela tiden) - blir förväntat antal Fire Missions:
    Tysk Normal Ammuntion (8B/3R): 4 (vanliga regler), 5.64 (Pleva).
    Rysk Normal Ammuntion (5B/2R): 3.33 (vanliga regler), 4.08 (Pleva).

    med tillhörande kommentar:
    "Figure 7 visibly demonstrates that the expected number of Fire Missions is significantly increased when using the variant when up to twelve chit draws are allowed."

     

    Tittar man på endast 6 chit draws ser det ut så här...
    Tysk Normal Ammuntion (8B/3R): 3.58 (vanliga regler), 3.73 (Pleva).
    Rysk Normal Ammuntion (5B/2R): 3.33 (vanliga regler), 3.18 (Pleva).

    med tillhörande kommentar:
    "Unlike the results in Figure 7, the comparative outcomes shown in Figure 8 are much closer for each draw pile when we compare the standard Battery Access depletion rule against the variant."


    Dessa siffror säger ju dock inte när i ett scenario man kan förvänta sig att få ner en Fire Mission (som du skriver, det kan ju vara stor skillnad på att få ner en Fire Mission tidigt i ett scenario, kontra att få ner två stycken sent), och det är ju inte så ofta man gör upp till 12 chit draws (vet faktiskt inte varför dom valde det numret i artikeln). Plus att dom inte heller tar hänsyn till ev "extra" chit draws.
     

    Men som sagt var (igen) - jag har ingen åsikt i frågan om dessa varianter - har aldrig spelet med någon variant. Men jag tycker själv att direkt lägga till en röd när man drar den först (enligt Pleva) låter lite udda/märkligt.

    Med den matten kan vi konstatera (12 chits är knappt relevant) att 6 chit draws ser det ut så här...
    Tysk Normal Ammuntion (8B/3R): 3.58 (vanliga regler och LHR 11), 3.73 (Pleva).
    Rysk Normal Ammuntion (5B/2R): 3.33 (vanliga regler och LHR 11), 3.18 (Pleva).

  7. In Red Barricades CG III, A Russ OBA with Scarce Ammo (about 30-40% of Russian OBA is Scarce), after drawing two Red chits:

    LHR OBA, Russian third draw attempt, from Draw Pile 5B / 2R.

    Borås OBA, Russian third draw attempt, from Draw Pile 5B / 3R.

    Pleva OBA, Russian third draw attempt, from Draw Pile 5B / 5R.

    ...och om man drar som en Norrman 😀

    LHR OBA, Russian 5th draw attempt, from Draw Pile 5B / 2R.

    Borås OBA, Russian 5th draw attempt, from Draw Pile 5B / 5R.

    Pleva OBA, Russian 5th draw attempt, from Draw Pile 5B / 7R.

    Med 25% chans att det boostar den med artilleri ger ju en slight fördel. Det är väl det man vill adressera med Pleva: Att den ska kunna användas även i exakt balanserade scenarion.

    Jag tycker att LHR funkar bra men när det inträffar känns det ju som att den boostar den sidan.

    Oftast när vi använder den är ju om du redan balanserat upp det scenariot.

    Vi har alltid spelat med vår LHR OBA variant, regeln började användas 1994-95, lades ut på ASL forum 96 (långt före ASLSweden skapades).

    Det jag alltid spelar först när OBA introduceras.

    - ASL C Hedgehog of Peipsk - Germ OBA, Draw pile 8B / 4R

    Om tysken drar två röda, något som OBA varianterna ska mildra så att scenarior inte barkar åt fanders, ser ut som följande.

    Don Greenwood original rule, OBA ends, the observer may take up other duties.

    LHR OBA, German third draw attempt, Draw Pile 8B / 3R.

    Borås OBA, German third draw attempt, Draw Pile 8B / 4R.

    Pleva OBA, German third draw attempt, Draw Pile 8B / 6R.

    I Borås November 2021, spelade jag, HS21 Hervorst Hell, mot Hans B, han drog 2 röda i rad för båda hans tyska OBA moduler (dvs 4 röda i rad). Artilleriet var över, finns inga Tournament rules.

    Lät han börja använda LHR OBA efter en diskussion med turneringsansvarig. Något som jag då fick veta även används i Norge när de spelar, de tycker att den synkar bäst.

    Skillnaden mellan vår variant och Mels är egentligen hårfin, och vi ska testa den nästa gång. Fördelen är att man slipper tänka på att ha fler röda separat kort.

    Vår variant är närmare Don Greenwoods OBA regler, den är hårfin, eran variant är inte det, och ett tidsslukande tråkigt bokförande/komma-ihåg hur varje OBA module skiftar i Draw pile har inget gemmensamt med hur orginal reglerna är utformade.

  10. 15 hours ago, Klas Malmström said:

    Sedan har dom även detta i Albany turneringen (tror jag):
    Along those lines, the variant also alters the C1.22/A9.72 malfunctioning Radio repair rules by allowing a malfunctioning Radio to repair on a dr of 1-2 and removes the possibility of permanently disabling the Radio on a repair dr of 6. Similarly, a Field Phone does not permanently Disable on an Original contact DR of 12 and will be able to be repaired on a repair dr of 1-2 while not permanently disabling on a repair dr of 6.

    LHR OBA regeln är mycket enklare, DR på 12 är ett vanligt slag, våra regler är ca 35% likvärdiga, men en repair dr på 1-2 krävs för det.

    LHR 11: An Original Contact/Maintenance DR of 12 does not cause the breakdown of a Radio or elimination of a Field Phone, although an Original DR of 12 does cause the loss of Radio/Field-Phone Contact.

     Pleva explained that his objective was two-fold:

    •    To decrease the chances of the OBA player obtaining zero Fire Missions, while, at the same time,
    •    Not significantly affecting the expected number of Fire Missions for the various OBA Draw Piles.

    Det första påståendet stämmer att man ökar chansen att få ned artilleri om man har oturen att dra två röda chits i rad, men chansen att det blir 3 eller mer röda chits dragna i rad ökar avsevärt med hans OBA variant, dessutom att behöva dra en extra med chansen att bränna (dra en röd) den enda svarta chit man har erhållit är nu mycket stor. 

    Det andra påståendet stämmer inte, inte ens om scenariot är 10 turns långt, det hjälper, men jag får hellre ned två FFE missions turns 2-4 trots att man drog två röda chits i början. Med Pleva OBA bör spannet på att få ned två FFE ligga på turns 2-8 (anta att scenariot är 5, 6 eller 7 turns långt) och att få ned FFE sent i scenariot är oftast betydelselöst (Observer är dessutom låst).

  12. Russian OBA, assume that the drawing process is the following for both OBA rule variants, although very often it will not be since the Pleva OBA rule increase the chances for a string of drawing even more red chits than the LHR OBA rule version.

    Ex B: (Normal Ammo) 1st Black Chit drawn, 5 Black / 2 Red. (4B / 2R for all three OBA variants; Original; LHR; Pleva).

    2nd black Chit drawn (3B / 2R for all OBA variants).

    1st red Chit drawn (Original/LHR: 3B / 1R vs Pleva: 3B / 3R).

    2nd red Chit drawn (Original/LHR OBA ends vs Pleva: 3B / 4R).

    3rd black Chit drawn (only Pleva OBA in play: 2B / 4R).

    3rd red Chit drawn (only Pleva OBA in play: 2B / 5R).

    4th black chit drawn (only Pleva OBA in play: 1B / 5R).

    4th red chit drawn (only Pleva OBA in play: 1B / 6R).

    Scenario Ends.

    Note that the LHR never came into effect during the Example.

    The Original OBA rule and the LHR OBA rule mostly play out the same during the Battery- Access-drawing-process, depending upon nationality and ammo availability.

    Only about 25% chance that the LHR came into play. If the same scenario is played 4 times, then 3 times (in average) it will not matter if the LHR was in play or not. 

     

     

  13. Russian OBA, assume that the drawing process is the following for both OBA rule variants, although very often it will not be since the Pleva OBA rule increase the chances for a string of drawing even more red chits than the LHR OBA rule version.

    Ex A (Scarce Ammo): 1st red Chit drawn, 5 Black / 3 Red.(LHR: 5 Black / 2 Red vs Pleva: 5 Black / 4 Red).

    2nd red Chit drawn (LHR: 5B / 2R vs Pleva: 5B / 5R).

    1st black Chit drawn (LHR: 4B / 2R vs Pleva: 4 B / 5R).

    3rd red Chit drawn (LHR: 4B / 2R vs Pleva: 4 B / 6R).

    2nd black Chit drawn (LHR: 3B / 2R vs Pleva: 3B / 6R).

    3rd black Chit drawn (LHR: 2B / 2R vs Pleva: 2B / 6R), last Fire Mission able to use before the scenario ends, and an extra draw have to be made since the enemy is concealed. With LHR the chance is 50% to draw a black chit, with Pleva rule the chance is only 25% to draw a black chit.

  14. Why the LHR OBA rule is much better than the Pleva OBA rule.

    Red Barricades Leaflet House Rule

    11. OFFBOARD ARTILLERY: When attempting Battery Access for an OBA Module, if the second permanently-removable red chit is drawn and less than two black chits have been permanently removed from the Draw Pile, return that red chit to the Draw Pile instead. Your OBA actions for this battery are done for this Player Turn (i.e., the second red chit can only be removed from the Draw Pile if at least two black chits have been permanently removed from the Draw Pile for that OBA Module).

    vs 

    Pleva OBA House Rule

    Every time you draw a red chit, put it back in the Draw Pile along with another red chit. Battery Access is no longer lost due to drawing two red chits. Meanwhile, the extra chit draw mechanics of C1.21 remain the same.

    Noterar att du har börjat använda tändsticksaskar som mellanförvaring. Verkar smart.

    :)

     

    ’Började’ använda dem på 90-talet, mer än 25 år sedan. Här ser du alla 6-askarna, det var då jag spelade 3 kampanjer samtidigt. Har mellan askarna förstärkt upp med tjock-ark och fräschar ibland upp fram och bak ytorna med nyklistrat tjock-ark, använder nuförtiden original-mini-kart-arken, eller utslitna IFT tabeller, etc.
    Bra förbättring är även att förd
    ela upp några askar med två fack i samma tändsticksask.

    Används även när andra kampanjer spelas, den som spelar engländare eller jänkare, brukar den ryska förvaringen.

    AFTERMATH (6 Game Turns): A build-up occur during the second idle day since the attack started 17 oct, into the Red Barricades steel works. The German main attack was directed towards the Russians, in the factory sector complex and several other stone buildings adjacent to the factories. The Germans called down a Nebelwerfer strike, but scattered and hit few Russians, but did set a factory on fire that rapidly spread and a platoon of Russians would later on be trapped between the German sturm troops and the blazing factories and forced to run through the blaze only to be burned alive. Russians that did escape the blazing factory and the Germans, were routed out into the large debris landscape and attracted some Stuka planes. The Russians few defenders in the Gutted Chemist Shop engaged the Germans in CC, except for a group that fled through the sewers, a German troop was blown up by a set DC in the newly conquered building. A more defensive position were taken along the railway embankment and only some small-scale attacks were carried out and easily repulsed by the Russians, that even started to counter-attack, but a cease-fire ended any further attempts.

    Notice that both sides have the same amount of troops after the CG scenario.

  19. Day 7: 23 October, Friday - Dual Attack, Clear & Gusty, Moist, Mild Breeze at start.
    German reinforcements [ELR: 4] [SAN: 2]:
    Two Rifle Coy (14 CPP), Early STUKA (2 CPP).

    German Order of Battle: 25 Ldr, 90 Sq-Eq (2 Crews 6 AE, 29 Elite, 54 1st/2nd Line), 48 SWs (9 MMG, 22 LMG, 7 ATR, 5 Lt MTR, 5 DC),  Guns (PaK38).


    Russian reinforcements [ELR: 3] [SAN: 2]: HW Pltn (6 CPP) , SMG Coy (Reserve 3 CPP), Two Rifle Coy (Reserve 8 CPP), Lt Arty 70+mm (1 CPP).

    Russian Order of Battle: 23 Ldr (one Ldr Crt), 116 Sq-Eq (12 Crews, 8.Elite, 74.5 1st Line, 27 Conscripts), 35 SWs (4 HMG, 7 MMG, 10 LMG, 8 ATR, 6 Lt MTR), 4 Guns (MTR 82mm), 3 AFVs (1x T-60 & 2x T-70). OBA Two Lt Arty 70+mm (one Retained).
