I'll be interested in your experiment with the security camera... one of the drawbacks with the camera's I have been using is you have to put them miles away to get the full table in frame, a security camera with a wide angle may well be the answer (providing it doesn't do the fish eye thing, LOL)..Steve-the-Wargamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07077311120172727690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182231306997961847.post-28073593810411562842020-08-25T01:34:28.308-07:002020-08-25T01:34:28.308-07:00Cheers Ian, I have always like the C&C board, ...Cheers Ian, I have always like the C&C board, the bright shades really help to lift the figure bases.

Next game I'll go back to using the cards, both command and Tactician sets to see how it feels and plays again. I think my determination to get those lovely Spanish uniforms on the board resulted in the heavy loss, next time a full British army should see a far better outcome. To be honest I'm really just keeping my hand in with C&C to keep the rules fresh in my head, enjoyed the game for over 8 years now.'Lee.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02728400013024811279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2182231306997961847.post-90043027430109986272020-08-25T01:24:00.057-07:002020-08-25T01:24:00.057-07:00Hi Norm.

Ramekin actually handles this rather better with different dice for different classes of commanders, but I only have D6 and average dice!<br /><br />One issue that I have with DBN is that all activations come down to a D6 result and its wild variation. I think an average dice could work well with DBN too.
