DP02 Bunker Hill (17 June 1775)

Hi,

I tried to load this saved game with the v2.41 module, but the Ship and coast graphics didn't display.

Hi,
Yes, I believe I have the Fanscenario Extension installed. Hopefully, with the Fanscenario Extension installed it will open correctly.

I played this yesterday with a friend and we enjoyed it. But are the US Inf too powerful with their +1 die (standing) and roll to hit an officer? The +1 roll puts them on a par with British INF - is this historical?

I'm no expert in the AWI and was just wondering.

Hi,

It is admittedly hard to get the Americans just right. They were inconsistent at times. (Looking forward to seeing how Mr. Borg will handle it someday) The British took heavy casualties and learned that they had to take the colonists more seriously as an opponent.

The shooting from the Americans is on par with the British but the skill in battle drills and formations is reflected by less skill from the Americans at a move and shoot.

As for killing officers, well the Americans intentionally targeted officers and were usually quite effective at it. The British took an unusually high toll in officers at Bunker Hill.

This looks like a great scenario with some nice little twists built in - I like the frequent officer casualty rolls for example.

I just wish there was some unofficial block stickers for these AWI games, at least until we see the GMT Tricorn version. I'd feel much happier playing them then

Those look excellent! Are they just for Vassal or can they be made available to sticker blocks for games on the board?

Great graphics.
