Layout has Started

Layout as started :) This just a check to make sure everything fits :) All looking good :) 

We will also be taking this opportunity to check details as the counters & tokens are added. Accuracy has to take priority over speed, so please understand that if there are any final changes that need to be made, those will have to take priority even if that means a delay.

Great news!! 

We are a day or two away from beginning the layout for print. This means preparing - and checking - the final contents to send to the printer when complete.

Just waiting for the hi-res JPG files to arrive and then we can start :) 

Here is a look at the Tokens to indicate things like Action, Move, Wounded and so on, along with the Battle Tokens that give the player various enhancements options.

Update - August 2026
about 1 month ago – Wed, Aug 19, 2026 at 06:31:50 AM

Good news! We will be able to start the layout of the 9 PARA and defending 1st Battery counters as soon as a gap in the schedule opens up!

This is the first step in the print process - getting everything laid out and checked (and checked again!!).

We have made a slight color change to the 1st Battery defenders, with a greener 'field grey' rather than the light gray. Any preference?

You can also see below the Steiner and Half-track counters. 

Steiner was the commander of the Battery, but was a short distance away at the beach when the attack began (scanning the English Channel). If/when he returns to the compound, he will bring in artillery fire on his own position from neighboring batteries to drive the paras out.

The Half-track arrived on site totally unexpected. After a night of paratroopers dropping all round and the massive Allied landing force approaching, the crew presumably were seeking some kind of shelter. If the Half-track arrives before the mission is complete, the AA gun will be directed against 9 PARA.
