Taranaki Wars 2023

Wayne has been hard at work updating the old V3 scenarios and making them compatible with V4! Keep an eye on this segment to see the reworked scenarios and try them out in V4 yourself. 

Operation 'Supercharge'

After his victory in Gazala and Tobruk, Rommel pursued the British into Egypt to the Alamein ‘Line’. El Alamein was the last defensive position west of the Suez Canal, and the British needed to hold the Axis forces there at all costs. Two attempts by Rommel to break past the Alamein Line were held in July, after which both sides pulled back and dug in, awaiting reinforcements...

The Defence of 150th Brigade Box

In May 1942 Afrika Korps outflanked the British Eighth Army at Gazala, but after fierce tank battles, were unable to break the resilient British. Afrika Korps now found themselves in a dire position - they were in effect behind British lines and their supply line, the Trigh Capuzzo road, was controlled by the British 150th Infantry Brigade who occupied a “Box” of strong all-round defences surrounded by minefields. If Afrika Korps was to survive they would have to destroy 150th Brigade and open their supply route...

Lessons From The Front: 4th Edition
Last Updated March 2023
A new rule set always results in questions about how the finer points of the game should work so Lessons From The Front is the place to go to find answers to some of the harder questions.

These are living documents that we will update as often as possible but please bear in mind that whilst we listen to feedback in the forums (and other places) we need to take a considered approach before implementing any changes.

Missions for Flames Of War - Updated March 2023
With the rulebook now adopting the revised victory conditions from the old More Missions pack, we've updated it (now just called the Missions pack) to reflect this. 

The pack contains: • Annihilation • Breakthrough • Bridgehead • Bypass • Contact • Cornered • Counterattack • Counterstrike • Covering Force  Dogfight • Dust Up • Encirclement • Encounter • Escape • Fighting Withdrawl  Free For All • Gauntlet • Hold the Pocket • It's a Trap  Killing Ground • No Retreat • Outflanked • Outmanoeuvred  Probe • Scouts Out  Spearpoint  Valley of Death • Vanguard

Each mission has a double page telling you how to play the mission and detailing the mission's special rules. You can either print each mission out on a single piece of paper (front and back) or print it as a booklet with each mission on facing pages.

The Battle Plans mission selector allows you and your opponent to choose the most appropriate missions for your forces. Each player chooses a plan (Prepared Attack, Hasty Attack, or Defend) and then you look up a table to see which mission to play and who will be the attacker.

Dynamic Points for Mid-War: 2024

Having passed the mid-year equinox, it's time to start thinking about next year. Last year, we introduced dynamic points for the Mid-War period, and they've been well received. Now, it's time to think about next year's Mid-War dynamic points update.

That's where we'd like your help. What do you think needs adjusting in the next round of dynamic points? Which units or types of units are too cheap, and which ones need a reduction?

This year we want to keep the focus on Mid War and get that bedded down so please keep the discussion focused.

So, fire away and let us know what you think the Mid-War dynamic points for 2024 should look like.

Battlefront Digital

Seven years ago we launched FOW Digital to customers as a convenient way to purchase, download and reference Flames Of War books and lists. For some of us, it seems like just yesterday but in the software development world that is many lifetimes ago! Despite a number of software upgrades over the years, it has become unstable for some Apple users as new versions of iOS are released, rendering the app unusable to them. Unfortunately, the time is coming when we will need to lay it to rest at some time in the near future.

Don't Panic!

We are migrating customers over to a new website where you can access your content and add more. By moving to a website we give you, the customer, more power with how you can use your Digital content. Want to read your book on your phone, tablet, PC or Mac? Go ahead...
