TRO 1945: AS?
« on: 16 October 2017, 19:15:23 »
Anyone done Alpha Strike conversions for TRO 1945?

I did a search, but didn't see it.

I think XTRO:1945 pre dates Alpha Strike.  I've not seen anyone attempt and convert them into AS units.

I could see Abstract Combat System being better way using the longer ranges the WW2 has.

If I can find time, I'd try, but I think in TRO:1945 time, the average tank would look like:

Size 1 (2 for late models), movement 6"t, attack 0*/0*/0*, armour 1 internal structure 2, EE & SRCH.

Maybe a Tiger might get to 0*/1/1, and 2 or 3 armour, at size 2.

I saw that as well. Some rescaling would have to take place. I am modifying my normal Alpha Strike Conversion spreadsheet for TRO1945.
