Download or read book Contact Front Compendium written by Rhys Little and published by The Endless Bookcase Ltd. This book was released on 2013-10-30 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: War games for all levels. ‘Contact Front!’ is a compendium of war games for all levels for beginner to experienced players with a ‘get you going’ set of rules for modern wargames. It’s designed to be a handy, ready reference – available via your e-book reader of choice – as you play your wargames. ‘Contact Front!’ encapsulates some of the lessons that Rhys Little learnt through his army officer training – and some of the lessons he learnt when he put that training into practice, including leading men in action in Afghanistan and, subsequently, in other places. REVIEWS “Contact Front! contains a straightforward and engaging rule set to enable frantic table top action set across some of the world’s current hotspots. The carefully crafted rules manage to capture the nerve racking action of military conflict within the fun context of war-gaming. There’s nothing like weighing up your options before calling in the artillery!” Bryn Richardson, War Games Retailer “Contact Front is a simple-to-play modern warfare game. It follows precisely the old adage that ‘no plan survives first contact with the enemy’. Although an easy game to learn, it takes a good idea of tactics and a degree of flexibility to master the elements of the game and achieve victory on a regular basis. “Various armies are useable, each with their own unique merits and drawbacks, allowing the player to run various scenarios from the Cold War era to modern conflicts in Afghanistan. “It’s highly enjoyable as a game, whether you’re playing a small-scale section attack or a larger-scale mechanised battle with artillery support.” Tom Wright, War Games Retailer "’Contact Front!’ is great fun to play - and frustratingly hard to master. It requires a good degree of tactical thinking but it’s very enjoyable – even addictive - to play." James Newman, table-top war gamer and live role play enactor “Involving, engaging and with a remarkably ‘real’ feel to it, Contact Front offers the casual war gamer a fun-filled few hours and some exciting exploits to discuss afterwards. “For dedicated military strategists and tacticians, Contact Front offers the opportunity for them to pit their wits against others in the relative comfort of the armchair and table top - rather than being accompanied by the inconveniences and dangers of the real battlefield – and also provides the overall view of the battleground that not even computer programs can always manage to produce. “This is certainly the best thought-out table-top war game I’ve played - and it’s probably one of the most enjoyable that I’ve played for many years.” Christopher Reading, war-gamer and amateur military historian “Contact Front! contains a straightforward and engaging rule set to enable frantic table top action set across some of the world’s current hotspots. The carefully crafted rules manage to capture the nerve racking action of military conflict within the fun context of war-gaming. There’s nothing like weighing up your options before calling in the artillery!” Bryn Richardson, War Games Retailer “Rules are sound, good and realistic, I really enjoyed it. A brilliant game.” Jordan, British Soldier “The most fun I’ve had war gamming in ages!” Aneurin Little, War Gamer

Book excerpt: These student papers are largely focused on present problems which must be solved before movement toward the future can make much progress. If they are not dramatically futuristic in approach, they are nevertheless set against a future backdrop which is still in the process of being defined. The broader Army After Next program, led by the U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Comand, is an experiment, an examination of what could be. The Army War College seeks to play its part through this contribution and by educating those officers who will field, staff, and command our future Army.
Download or read book The Wargaming Compendium written by Henry Hyde and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2013-08-19 with total page 573 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An extensive reference guide to the exciting hobby, for beginners as well as longtime players. Wargaming is a fascinating, engrossing, and exciting pastime that encompasses a wide range of different talents. The average wargamer uses the skills of artist, designer, sculptor, illustrator, historian, librarian, researcher, mathematician, and creative writer, as well as the more obvious ones of general, admiral, or air marshal for large games, or perhaps lieutenant, commodore, or squadron leader for skirmishes. Aside from calling upon many skills, wargaming also covers many aspects of combat, spanning the history of Earth. With science fiction gaming, we plunge into imagined worlds many thousands of years into the future, and a fantasy gamer, of course, deals with eons of imagined history, as anyone who has read The Lord of the Rings will know. A wargamer may find themselves recreating an encounter between a handful of adversaries one day, or a massed battle involving perhaps hundreds of miniature troops the next. Moreover, it is possible to play wargames that recreate warfare on land, on sea, in the air, or even in outer space. This book demonstrates the wonderfully varied hobby of wargaming with miniatures, looking at the broad scope of what it has to offer as well as detailed explanations of how to get involved, including comprehensive rules for gladiator combat, Wild West skirmishes, and the horse and musket era, as well as lots of advice for anyone new to wargaming. Whether you’re a complete newcomer to the hobby, or a veteran of many years, you’ll find plenty in The Wargaming Compendium to entertain and inspire you.

Download or read book LAV 25 written by James D’Angina and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-11-20 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Light Armored Vehicle 25 (LAV-25) has played a significant role in transforming United States Marine Corps doctrine since its introduction in the early 1980s. The Marine Corps' Light Armored Vehicle program was based on the proven Swiss MOWAG Piranha series of 4x4, 6x6, and 8x8 wheeled vehicles. However, developing organizational units, tactics, and employment of the weapon system within the force structure of the Marine Corps proved to be more of a challenge than fielding the weapon system. This resulted in multiple re-designations for LAV units within the Corps. The LAV first saw combat in Panama during Operation Just Cause and LAV-25s have fought in every major conflict since, including Operation Enduring Freedom, and Operation Iraqi Freedom. This book covers the design, development, and deployment of this continuingly successful vehicle.

Download or read book American Wheeled Armoured Fighting Vehicles written by Michael Green and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2016-10-31 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerous wheeled armoured fighting vehicles have seen service in the US armed forces on and off for over 80 years. There have been various changes of policy and twice, after the Second World War and Vietnam, they went out of favour but their use is now well established. This well researched and superbly illustrated book describes all the different types and variants since the first M1 was ordered in 1931. The M8 armoured car was widely used during World War Two but it was not until Vietnam that further wheeled AFVs came into service, notably the M706 armoured car. After a lull the US Marine Corps adopted the Light Armoured Vehicle (LAV) in 1983. The US Army first used armoured Humvees in 1994 and variants remain in service (M1141 and M1116). Other types today include the Guardian (M1117) and the Army version of the LAV names the Stryker. To meet the operational requirements of Iraq and Afghanistan the Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicle (MRAP) was ordered in bulk from 2007.
