Feb. Tournament
I spoke with Joel and Friday and he told me that he thinks it is a good idea to be a bit more flexible with when the tournaments are for Flames of War. So, he asked me to run a tournament on a Saturday in February. I am looking for suggestions for what Saturday. I am going to be running it and I am open to suggestions on point size and era. I still need to look at my work calendar and see what Saturday I can get off but I think it's pretty flexible. So, lets hear it. Who is in and what date does everyone want to have this thing?

Re: Feb. Tournament
Joel wants me to run the Feb. tournament on the 7th which is the first Saturday of the month. I am still checking on getting that day off to run the event but it looks ok at the moment.
St. Valentine's Day Massacre
1. Each side must nominate an overall commander which will represent a higher command team.
Any Company commander within 6” of the higher command team may re-roll its company
morale check. Other than allowing company commanders to re-roll their company morale
check, the higher command team acts exactly like a company commander team.
2. Add up the total amount of companies for each side and the side who has more companies
becomes the attacker. The difference between the total amount of attacker companies and
defender companies will determine how many Stratagems the defender receives. Consult the
table below to determine which Stratagems are being used.
3. The attacking side chooses which table edge to attack from.
4. Nominate all of your combat attachments and Kampfgruppen. Each player must then nominate
one combat platoon per company and set them aside. These platoons represent the Frontline
Platoons which will have special rules located below.
5. If the defending players receive additional fortifications then all fortifications are placed at this
time. Fortifications may be placed anywhere in the defenders half of their table.
6. Draw a line down the center of the table lengthwise. Both sides, starting with the attacking
side, alternate deploying their Frontline Platoons within 6” of the center line on their own half
of the table. All the Frontline Platoons start in Hasty Defenses.
○ Hasty Defenses count as trenches for all game play rules but if any teams in the hasty
defenses are hit by a bombardment there is a chance that the trenches will be destroyed. The
shooting player makes a separate firepower roll for the hasty defenses and if successful the
portion of trenches underneath the template are destroyed and removed from the game.
6. Both sides, starting with the attacker, alternate placing platoons in their own half of the table.
The platoons may not be placed within 12” of the center line of the table.
7. Both sides, starting with the attackers, now alternate placing their Independent Teams in their
deployment areas.
Difference of
companies
Stratagem Defending players receive
(Effects are cumulative)
1 Defender players receive 45 points of Fortifications for each 6' table being used.
2 Defender players receive 45 points of Fortifications for each 6' table being used.
3 Each Defending player may ambush one platoon
4 Each Defending player may ignore the first destroyed platoon for purposes of
company morale checks.
5 or more Each Attacking player must randomly place one platoon per company in reserve
BEGINNING THE BATTLE
1. This mission uses the Mobile Battle special rule
2. Starting with the attacking players, both sides make Reconnaissance Deployment moves for any
Recce Platoons they have on the table.
3. The attacking players have the first turn.
ENDING THE BATTLE
The battle ends when either:
When the game master calls time or assigned time limit ends, or
when one side capitulates.
DECIDING WHO WON
The side who scores the most victory points will win the scenario. Calculate victory points by using
the following chart:
1 Victory Point for each enemy platoon destroyed during the shooting phase
2 Victory Points for each enemy platoon destroyed during the assault phase
2 Victory Points for destroying the higher command team regardless of method.
3 Victory Points for each friendly combat platoon in which every remaining team in the platoon
is within the enemies deployment zone.
ARMY BUILDING REQUIREMENTS
1. All players must bring a mechanized or infantry company worth no more than 1500 points.
Players may build multiple companies but each company must be 1500 points.
2. Players may only have one tank platoon per company. A tank platoon is defined as such if the
majority of a platoon's teams are rated as tank teams.
3. Each player should be prepared to use the Fortifications rules located in the hardback rulebook.
