Reinforcements From the Home Front


The men and women back home are working their hardest to keep the our fighting boys in tip-top shape with more Ammo and Tanks for the war effort. Keep them coming. Remember one more tank may mean the difference between defeat or victory!



Here some tanks just waiting to get sent to the front! What a pretty sight! These tanks will be put into platoons and sent to meet the enemy head on in our war against the aggressors!



Each tank must be equipped with all the resources it will need to win the day, here we see components fresh from the factory about to be packed and sent to the front.. We need to stay vigilant and strong as we wait for these reinforcements to arrive. We expect to see these tanks hitting the front lines soon!

More Reinforcements Are On The Way!

Doctrine Cards

Doctrine cards are a new category of upgrade cards that focus on national characteristics, rather than equipment or training, and let us elaborate on how different nationalities fought and provide some new play styles within those nationalities.

New Upgrade Card Type, Doctrine




Doctrine cards are a new category of upgrade cards that focus on national characteristics, rather than equipment or training, and let us elaborate on how different nationalities fought and provide some new play styles within those nationalities. This week we will look at two of the new Doctrine cards: “One Foot on The Ground” and “Seek, Strike, Destroy”.

	One Foot on The Ground changes how British players will play their lists, as it directly affects their Semi-Indirect rule. Until now British players have had to decide whether to gain their shooting bonus while forfeiting some of their defense. This made them deadly, but also more static. This upgrade gives you the ability to keep your defense while remaining stationary. This upgrade option gives players more options for fine-tuning their lists. They can give this upgrade to every tank or just a select few that will provide covering fire for their faster compatriots.

The Seek, Strike, Destroy card, on the other hand, focuses on one type of tank: US tank destroyers. We wanted to portray how US tank destroyer doctrine shaped the way they were used in the field. This upgrade card lets US players take more elite tank destroyers if they want to spend the points, providing more choice and more variety in list-building options.

Doctrine cards gives players some new and interesting choices. Some cards may focus on particular tanks while others will have a more universal use. But since each tank can only have one Doctrine card at a time, players will have to make some hard decisions when it comes to choosing which Doctrine cards to use.

Cautious, Not Stupid

Tank Destroyers have one simple role on the battlefield, to seek out the enemy armour, mercilessly destroy them and then disappear, leaving only the burning hulks of their enemies as evidence they were ever there. In TANKS terms this translated into a new rule called Cautious.
