Frustrations of Computer Protocol

I've gone back and re-created the previous posts which died - hopefully they stay up and they remain as images/files instead of becoming the dreaded icon of doom!

Flames of War special rules

How many of you have developed some Flames of War house rules or special rules which you use with permission of your opponent?  We've developed several house rules and after I figure out how to format these things and get some good photos to use as diagrams, I will be posting them!

Flames of War - the Early War Files

We have been building Flames of War Early War armies for the past two years.  The French are now a complete Infantry company, a complete cavalry tank company, and several attachments from the reserves including Char B1bis platoons (7 total tanks), Char 2C Lourde breakthrough tanks (7 of them - or essentially all of them that DIDN'T break down at the first opportunity or that were scrapped for parts), plus several artillery units and some French Foreign Legion and Dragoons.  The German army is also very large with over 60 tanks and other vehicles, and at least 70 stands of infantry.  They are lacking in artillery - something I intend to rectify when my painting table clears up a bit.  This year we are starting up some hypothetical (and in some instances - historically accurate) battles of the failed Italian invasion of France in 1940 in support of the Germans.  I hope to have pictures of the first battles after January 23, 2011.  So stay tuned!

Badab War Campaign posts

Alright everyone - I created some nifty PDF files - which you cannot import into a blog apparently because they are blown away and you are left with the tiny icon of the dreaded white square with an X in the middle of it.  I reposted two of the pages and hope they don't go away again after I leave the site.  So, hopefully they will remain, if not, I will have to figure out something else - perhaps printing them to an HTML file and see if that works!

Otherwise - I hope you can see and enjoy the gaming we are doing - and hopefully I will have pictures from this coming weekends games!
