Battlefront: What is your favorite Flames Of War army to play?
Chris Jackson: Boat Weasels. |
BF: Why?
CJ: People underestimate them, badly. |
BF: What is your favorite Flames Of War time period?
CJ: Late-war, but I haven’t gotten to play Early-war yet so I reserve the right to change. |
BF: Why?
CJ: Increased options and technology make things more difficult to anticipate. |
BF: What is your favorite World War II battle or operation?
CJ: Torch.
|
Below: Chris' Romanians at the 2011 US Masters.
|
BF: Why?
CJ: Watching the steep learning curve the Americans went through.
|
BF: What is your favorite part of the hobby? (Painting, playing, historical research, collecting, assembling, etc.)
CJ: Playing. |
BF: Why do you attend tournaments?
CJ: Only chance I get to play anymore. Not a big gaming community in Leesville.
|
BF: Your tournament mantra?
CJ: Baby seals for breakfast…it never gets old.
|
|
BF: What is your favorite type of tournament? (Points, theme, time period, style, etc.)
CJ: 1750 point open. If you restrict the time period or theater, it becomes easier to anticipate your opponent. |
BF: What are some of the most competitive armies to play?
CJ: Boat Weasels, SS infantry and Udarny. |
BF: What is your favorite platoon type?
CJ: Veteran infantry.
|
BF: What are you general tactics that you use almost every game?
CJ: Make him react to me. Even if defending, I set the
battlefield to determine where he should go and who he has to fight to
get there. |
BF: What army are you bringing to the Masters?
CJ: I just put my Romanian Puscasi in the mail to get home. If
they make it in time, they will be the choice, if not, probably German
or American infantry.
|
|
BF: Why Romanians?
CJ: Because I saw some things in the list I thought would be
fun to try and unexpected, and I think with this group, I will need
every advantage I can squeeze out. |
BF: What mission are you dreading the most?
CJ: Break-Out, I am 0-2 with that one.
|
BF: What mission do you excel at the most?
CJ: No Retreat. |
BF: What point level do you like and dislike based on your army selection?
CJ: With the Romanians, I like them all, I have adequate
anti-tank and anti-infantry at all levels. If I use the American list,
1250 points is kicking my butt. I had better defend, or I’m gonna get
creamed. |
BF: Is there a particular points and mission combo that you are really looking forward to seeing?
CJ: A 1000 point Free-For-All. I have a neat list. |
BF: How do you think you will perform?
CJ: Pride goeth before a fall. Next question.
