I think it is easy to rush into things as a beginner, better to take time to get a good position then go from their. At least that is what I am thinking at the moment.

My game in the other room was a turgid affair, that got a little bogged down. I forgot to protect the back objective in a defensive mission, and Alex swung around to take it and I couldn't contest it. A whole lot of stupid really. We are enjoying ourselves and me and Steve are fitting another game in tonight.Dan Vincenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09020492418016163136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3763586098588355727.post-73013057615043130162013-08-13T21:41:07.708+12:002013-08-13T21:41:07.708+12:00Nice write up Steve.

Playing is the best way to learn, once you've had an error severely punished in a game you remember not to do it again! <br /> Assaults are the trickiest part of the game, but also one of the most crucial. If you can win the assaults, you will most likely win the game. It's all about stacking the odds in your favour first. The best bit of advice I was given on assaults when I started playing was that a rash, unplanned assault is worse than no assault at all. If you can improve things by waiting a turn, then hold off. Similarly, don't push a losing position. Sometimes breaking off even if you pass motivation to counter attack is the prudent thing to do. Don't play into your opponents hands, especially if you are defending against the assault and will get the next turn.Paul Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17249430164077358978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3763586098588355727.post-6302426455243652682013-08-13T14:50:23.524+12:002013-08-13T14:50:23.524+12:00Goods to see more FoW Gaming going on.

Drawing more interest is a good thing for the game, and it does give some sharp lessons at times!<br />The assault phase can be a bit tricky to get the hang of but keep having a go at it, and remember your 8" 'bubble'...Scottswargaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00581220877007982139noreply@blogger.com
