I could really do with a player aid or quick reference sheet and have poked around here at PG-HQ, BGG and at AP themselves to no avail. While I am kinda used to set up my own QRS' for other games, I just want to get a smooth start into IA to see if the system scratches my itch regarding the Great War. 
Any pointers? 

Cheers!

My first PG game was the Kokoda Campaign, hence the disorientation chart on the front.

General Use Counters
Austrian Leaders
    Tank Battles introduced the Austrians before Hopeless But Not Serious and Darkness Falls, however Austrian leaders were omitted. APL provided a DIY download titled A Bucket of Nothing.
Cuban Rebels
    Cuba rebels in To Hell With Spain have the same colors as the Spanish. That just wouldn't do.
Corpo Alpini
    The Alpini got their own colors in Conquest of Ethiopia, but their formations also make appearances in Fronto Russo and Little Saturn. They should also be helping invade Greece and southern France.
Finnish Counters for Arctic Front Deluxe
    The download for Arctic Front have the wrong font, so I redid the counters. I also created counters for jeagers, strongpoints and others. Duplicated leaders have had their backs shifted so they are not replicas, but still have the same probability of getting a given leader.
Soviet Counter supplements Part 1 and Page 2
   These are built out countersheets for the Lend-Lease tanks and counters used in Arctic Front and the Leningrad expansions.
Fire and Sword counter corrections
   The Soviet M17 was left off the countersheet. The SPW251/9 had the wrong values, Philippe Leonard confirmed he wanted the SPW251/9 and not the SPW251/22. The SPW251/17 and SPW251/21 counters were mislabeled.
Italy's Elephant Corps
    They actually tried it. The counters work better than the idea did.
Hitler and Schuschnigg counters
    Tank Battles and Hopeless But Not Serious (and I expect Darkness Falls will too) have a scenario where Hitler is holding Kurt Schuschnigg hostage. The Austrian army is preparing to storm the Kehlsteinhaus (Eagle's Nest), but Schuschnigg was freed before that actualy occurred.
Mongolian People's Army
    Appearing first in Power of the East, they also provided military assistance to the Soviet Union during the Nazi invasion. Imagine them charging a German infantry regiment, oh wait, I think some of them actually did.
Piechoty from Bron Pancerna
Polish Supplemental Counters
    These are Polish infantry armed with semi-automatic rifles, like the M1 Garand. The word piechoty literally means infantry.
Polish Supplemental Counters
    Polish counters in Polish Exiles no longer need French substitutes, the Polish colors are here. There are also OBA markers to support all the scenarios
    from Lithuania's Iron Wolves to Carpathian Brigade. The sheet includes the piechoty counters above.
Polish casemates.
    Back with White Eagles, one had to use strongpoints from  Airborne, until APL created Polish strongpoints as a download. I wish they had done that with the casemates needed for  Deluge.
Portee counters
    Stacks in PG are big enough. This helps keep the portees from building that tower.
Repubblica Sociale Italiana
    Italy had had enough of Mussolini and his adventure. His followers had not.
Romanian Border Guards
    With their neighbors all wanting a piece of Romania, these guys became the rock stars of the army.
South Korean M20 replacement counters
   The simple fact is that the M20 is not, nor could be, an APC. As an APC in Pusan Perimeter it is either superfluous on incongruous to the scenarios in which it appears.
Volksgrendier Regiment
    After the Invasion of Germany download and Campaigns & Commanders diagram, the Volksgrenadiers need a little more.

Units
Grossdeutschland Motor Infantry Regiment
    This is a fleshed out version of the Grossdeutschland Regiment as it was in Fall of France, including the attached assault gun battery

I have 3 motivations for this sort of endeavor. A geeky tribute, because I appreciate what we have here, despite our problems. I think the historical side of gaming should more alive and personal. And lastly, I hope to further inspire members creativity.

Now that I have kind of started, I thought I would extend an offer of counterset/extension creation to any vet, from any army who might want one. All you would need to do is PM/email me and I will look into the possibility. This offer is good for those who may have been enemies at the time too. My motivation would be less about tribute and more of historical enlivening in that case, but the offer is still good.

I am limited to 77 counters on a DIY sheet. These would be WW2 based formations of regiment or battalion size A ww2 linage would be good. I would like to make the countersheets available for all, but won't be doing it without the subject's permission. I also will not use any requestor's name/handle without their permission. I cannot guaranty a successful outcome, only promise an honest attempt. If you would like a counterset of your alma mater, let me know.]]>

Side Initiative (useful both for the Initiative Determination Phase or IDP), but also for documenting initiative losses which are sometimes factors in determining Battle Game outcomes.

# of segments of initiative won and by which side.

Step losses by each side.

Running totals of VPs (so that one can keep track of running step losses and/or positional VPs).

Other turn notes (e.g. FoW rolls; aircraft drawn; reinforcements; weather whatever).  

Really, the idea was to have a tidy way to review the scenario play after the fact to aid one in writing AARs.  For an example of how I did this a number of years ago now, see my AAR for St. Vith: the Fall (ER #22) where, for example (turn; IDP; German VP; US VP; Comments).

11 G+2 21 48 Slush; initiative bad news for M18 crews; vis 1 hex.
12 G+1 21 48 Night rules in play.
13 US+1 24 48
14 G+1 27 49 Board 23 now clear of US units

Keeping this in Excel would also be easy, especially for folks playing on Vassal or by Zoom or such, but I'm so old-school that having a pencil-and-paper record is comforting.   So, FWIW:

I'll post some samples here once we get it set up and running.]]>

Ever since the Guadalcanal Naval article in 2013, I thought other nations needed some ships too. In while building OOB support for Saipan and Marianas, I looked at the little land barges and the one gunboat and thought is was rather pitiful for such a naval power of the time. So I did what I always do.

The ship names are from the Letye Gulf ships present in that battle. That means that they existed at the time of most PG scenarios, which involve the Japanese.]]> 海軍に入隊する！ あなたの後に来るアメリカ人を見てください！

Mike,
I moved the thread over here because we are not talking about Brazilians any more, and are kind of creating a new project.

Since you have access to the Vassal library, the experimental side of the project should be quite easy. The German and basic American OOBs are mostly done. The Free French should be quick, mostly British graphics, American combat factors and a new background. Special forces and commandos will be a little harder. Then, are there new maps?

I would start with the OOBs. Look in the extension documentation for the catalogs for the Americans and Germans. Make up lists for the French and whomever. Then think about maps to use or create. If you are thinking about a dead-tree game, Elsenborn is good place to start.]]> (05-25-2020, 03:33 PM)Greyfox Wrote:      As for Operation Anvil/Dragoon - There are a number of great things about this campaign....
