A bit of a teaser from Battlefront:

(Please remember the context – this is preliminary, draft, box art, and yes, I know the cam on the M1 aint right…)

01/08/2015 at 03:00 #28422Mr. AverageParticipantThis seems to represent the US on the offensive! That alone makes it interesting to me. The majority of Cold War Goes Hot scenarios are about the unstoppable Soviet throwing back the outnumbered and outgunned Allies, which started to bore me after the first five hundred games.

Well, yes, some of the scenarios in the novel send Team Yankee out on a deep counterattack against the Sov MSR…

Matthew 5:901/08/2015 at 07:21 #28431kyoteblueParticipantWe shall see….
01/08/2015 at 07:22 #28432Nick TurnerParticipantLooking at giving it a go, see artwork with Sovs equipped with T-72 and BMP-2, does not give one much confidence.

Matthew 5:901/08/2015 at 13:42 #28449Norm SParticipantJust out of interest, I had a Team Yankee boardgame published in 1987. The scenarios were straight from the book.
Here is a link to the front face of the countersheet (you can click onto a larger version) which gives an indication of an order of battle for both sides.
03/08/2015 at 08:10 #28533Nick TurnerParticipantHopefully they will get the final artwork right!
The book seems to have the Sovs equipped with T-62 and T-72. T-62 had been withdrawn by the early 80s and both GSFG and CGF were equipped with either T-64 or T-80.
18/08/2015 at 02:07 #29461kyoteblueParticipantThe aircraft and Helicopters look good, no word on the scale. They will show arty next time.
18/08/2015 at 12:58 #29474irishserbParticipantThe aircraft do look nice, but I fear that they will be 1/144, which will do me no good.
18/08/2015 at 14:45 #29477GeoffQRFParticipantIf they follow the same pattern as previously, the helicopters will be 1/100 but the aircraft will be 1/144. There was something odd about the Frogfoot that I am still trying to put my finger on – I think it may be the canopy and the wing roots.
Meanwhile Chas is remoulding our Russian/Soviet tanks… especially the T-64s 😉

Matthew 5:926/08/2015 at 22:43 #29971kyoteblueParticipantI am still hopeful that Team Yankee will not suck.
27/08/2015 at 01:49 #29976kyoteblueParticipantIt’s a rerun of some of BF’s old art with M-1’s….I know…I know….but there is always Modern 5 Core Company Commander…
27/08/2015 at 09:26 #30002piers brandParticipantSoviet T72s and BMP2s in 1985 in opposite CENTAG?
Well its is based on a novel I guess…
27/08/2015 at 12:37 #30015GeoffQRFParticipantIf you want to game it, and replace the T-72s and BMP-2s with T-64s and BMP-1s… you know where to come 🙂
