Why are Tans seemingly considered the bad guys by everyone?
>>11762872Because Greens are the good guys.
>>11762876Why?

Ground is drying out, barring another last winter gasp the new campaigning season can open soon.
>>11764733It's been a close call on more than one occasion; I did forget a small sandbag wall piece once that someone doing some gardening stumbled across later. I'm quite fastidious about ensuring the same number of soldiers that left the house that day are the same number that returned, aided by the organizational system in place for my plastic armed forces.One example was last year when an overconfident Tan Brigadier determined that human waves against fortified Green positions was textbook victory tactics. The assault consisted of a Tan National Guard Light Infantry Brigade of 203 men, reinforced with a Tan Shock Battalion of 87, or 290 troops all told (plus, belatedly, a platoon of four tanks). By the end of the massacre there were 51 men (and 1 horse) remaining between the two units. All corpses accounted for, both units formally disbanded and survivors amalgamated into an ad-hoc company.
Good to see someone has fun with their toys on this board.

There's a fine line between fun and aggravating, especially on windy days. In the end though the payoff is always worth it.
Ngl, been getting the urge to break out my FoV (u unimax) tanks and planes along with some army men. And ended up buying a set on amazon. I was thinking about the war in Ukraine how even infantry are being replaced. Does anyone set up drones or missiles in their scenarios. I use the word scenario because honestly I don’t have a better word than “play”.
>>11765541In the Colour Wars "present" era there is little to no drone technology in use; though the "future" timeline has only been touched on briefly so far, can imagine there may be drone warfare by that point.Missile warfare is routine though its use is usually implied rather than directly depicted, such as here with the launching of a long-range SAM during the Stealth Crisis.
