Jagdtiger! by Billy Payne(Tisander) Otto Carius was one of the greatest tank commanders of all time. He killed 150 tanks durring WW2. Late in the war he was assigned to a Jagdtiger and ordered to deffend the the Rhine. The river in this scenario is hardly the Rhine, and this is not historic, but come and witness what a jagdtiger was capable of........
Control is detemined by last to occupy durring a Command phase, use control markers. The Americans win, then Otto surrenders his Jagdtiger and starts a business after the war, wich he names after his tank. If he Germans win, then Patton gets mad and defeats them the next day.
I have placed cp markers on the board rows to show thier value to each player.
Command points are awarded based on how far you have 'pushed' from your initial board edge. (North for Germans, South for Americans)
The German player also recieves 1 cp if Otto's jagdtiger has not been knocked out, each command phase.
OBJECTIVE: If a player controls all three victory locations in any status phase, then he scores 1 victory point. At the end of round 8, each victory location controlled is worth 2 victory points. Most victory points wins.
Rounds: 8 Starting Initative Americans Actions 3 Reinforcements Round Three: Both players recieve one halftrack, 1 officer, three elites and a specialty of his/her choice. The americans also recieve four M4A3(75)W Shermans Terrain The river is shallow. Special Rules Otto's Jagdtiger is exactly 10 hexes off the northern board edge. He has wisely placed it on a level 3 hill. He can count range from any full hex on the north edge and begins his count with number 11. For this scenario the Jagdtiger will not move. Otto's Jagdtiger gets the tank ace card.
You can only score cp's for the highest value row you occupy.(one row per command command phase) no matter how many different rows you occupy. You also may not score a row your enemy has passed, but players may score for the same row and probably will every round after the first.
" In God I trust." - Doc Mcoy
First row is worth 2 cp's. Second row is worth+1 cp's(or three) etc....
possition have been marked in purple. Its common sense so you shouldnt have to look at the map, and should be able to tell what is blind by looking at the board.
vs armor range: 15 firepower 22 cuncussive firepower overrun Thick armor May not use move and shoot order(no turret)
Otto may be targeted with air strikes and artillery. His tank losses its thick armor bonus against these attacks. If Otto can see you, then you can also see him. Place any fatigue markers or op fire markers, on the tank ace card, to show when Otto has fired etc. Otto starts the game on op fire. The Jagdtiger was the most powerful anti tank gun used in the war. Its armor was Inpenetrable from the front. It could easily knock out allied tanks before they were in range to shoot back.
Anytime a player uses a reinforce battalion card, he may replace 4 regulars for 3 elites, and an officer.(instead of the normal mix for this card) He may also choose to take a MG team instead of two elites. Both players may do this once per game.
If you would rather not use Variant vehicles, then just use the normal ones. If you dont want to use the Jagdtiger then I would suggest placing a level Jagdtiger(heavy vehicle) 2 hill overlay on top of the center hill ================ space on board 4B. Give the Move: 4 Germans an extra tiger and place it Armor: 8 on this hill spot, on op fire, to start Fan Created Scenario. the blind of hexes from Otto's infantry range: 12 firepower: the Fantasy game.
