ORIGINAL: GiveWarAchance

[font="Courier New"]Okay I got the Heroes mod 364 MB so I should be good to go. I like how you packaged everything up nice and simple to use. There must be a lot of content with all that for us to enjoy. Seriously that is amazing work on your part and you deserve credit for it. Maybe a rich player can buy you a luxury home or a Bugatti.

Thanks for clarifying about Chin's (I can't type the full name cause it feels like I am insulting him) token format. That's good you have a loyal partner kind of like Robin is to Batman. I will be more like the Penguin. That's actually a cool idea to make a cardboard effect to go with the dice and board of the game.

Cheers[/font]

Thank you for the "a luxury home or a Bugatti" proposal.

The downside of a "luxury home" is that you have to maintain it, and this costs a lot of money. Finally, the house is enjoyed by friends and you pay for it. It is the same that happens with yachts. You know, there are two happy days during the life of your yacht: the day you buy it and the day you sell it.

Regarding the "Bugatti", it is a car too small and narrow for my preferences. Of course, it is an very expensive car (thank you very much for the gift) but I believe that a car is nothing more than 4 wheels and a steering wheel. All the rest are accessories. And I'm not saying this as a joke (well, something yes). But, I know what I'm saying.

Chinchin: I don't know what it means in Chinese although, from what you say, I imagine the worst. However, in some languages ​​(Spanish, French, Italian), it means "cheers" when toasting two glasses of champagne with a friend. It is the noise that is produced when the two glasses of champagne collide (not with too much force) before drinking the precious liquid.
In any case, it should be our friend Chinchin who confirms or denies what I tell you.

TANK-HUNTERS

Compared to the other participants of World War 2, the Japanese were badly equipped with infantry-held antitank weapons. Only the emergence (literally) of the Tank Hunter Hero in scenarios set after 1943 partially remedies this major shortcoming.
Apart from the antitank rifles and other, improvised, small-calibre weapons used in the antitank role, Japan (for want of anything better) relied on a hodge-podge of "hand-held" devices to combat Allied armor-like "Molotov cocktails". The more effective was the "lunge mine", a large SCW mounted on a long pole and used like a human-powered panzerfaust, which on making contact with a solid object would destroy its user too. Unlike many Japanese antitank weapons, this last device could destroy any Allied tank used in the P.T.O. (Pacific Theater of Operations).
The impossibility of producing any effective and powerful anti-tank weapon, forced the Japanese gunners to attempt to immobilize the heaviest Allied tanks with suicide squad tactics of "tank hunters". The Japanese also used their artillery pieces with great cunning and imagination, antitank guns usually being cleverly sited in killing grounds (with land sometimes flooded to channel enemy armor onto the guns and/or tank-hunters), and some targets would be deliberately ignored in favor of catching more lucrative victims.
The Japanese employed specially trained tank-hunter troops to augment their infantry's poor anti-tank capabilities. These men, sometimes referred to as "human bullets" and often organized into teams found mainly in rifle companies and regimental engineer units, came to be used quite extensively. Their role was to ambush or close-assault enemy tank, using "Molotov cocktails", mines, Demolition charges, "lunge mine" and various other weapons that became available as the war went on. However, even if weaponless they were to attack in an attempt to immobilize the tank by any means possible, including the use of mud to cover the tank's vision devices and jamming the tracks by inserting stout poles into the miming gear.
One of the Tank Hunters' deadliest suicidal anti-tank weapon was the Shitotsubakurai lunge mine. It used a High Explosive Anti Tank (HEAT) type charge. The weapon itself was a conical hollow charge anti-tank mine, placed inside a metallic container and attached to the end of a wooden stick used to hold the weapon during its transport and use. The mine had equally spaced three legs facing forwards, all around the conical explosive base of the weapon. The detonator of the weapon was situated at the end of the conical base.
The mine was 30.48 cm in length, and the wooden stick was 99.06 cm, which made the total length of the weapon 129.54 cm. The mine had a diameter of 8 cm, and its body was about 3.175 cm in diameter. Its total weight was 6.48 kg, of which 2.948 kg were explosives.
To use the mine, the soldier would remove the security pin, and then charge the enemy armour, just like in a bayonet charge, making the top of the mine collide with the objective. The weapon needed to be held by the center with the left hand and by the bottom with the other hand. When the legs of the mine hit the objective, the handle was pulled forward, cutting a pin and making the detonator move forward to the detonator charge. This would set off the mine, blowing up its user and, probably, the targeted enemy armour. The mine was capable of penetrating about 150 mm at an angle of 90º, and up to 100 mm at an angle of 60º. However, the mine would almost always impact at 90º because the impact angle with the objective would be decided by the weapon's user, and he would probably aim for a 90º armour plate.
The Shitototsubakurai lunge mine can be used by any Japanese infantry unit (not just Leaders or Heroes).
The infantry unit using a Shitotsubakurai lunge mine must be in possession of a Tank Killer Skill Card.
The unit that possesses a Tank Killer Skill Card doesn't need to pass a Morale Check before attempting to Close Combat Assault against an enemy tank.
If the unit that possesses this Skill Card is a Leader, all units stacked with him subtract two (2) from their pre-assault Morale Check (this is in addition to the Leader's Leadership modifier).
To get the maximum power from the Shitotsubakurai lunge mine it's necessary to use it in a Close Combat Assault against an enemy tank.
Tank Killer units are often hidden so that they are not detected by enemies.

AMPHIBIANS

Amphibious vehicles are used for Seaborne Assaults.
In order for an Amphibious vehicle to navigate water hexes, it must be "embarked" in an "Amphibious barge."
The Amphibious vehicle lands on the beach in the same way as the rest of the units embarked on a "barge".
Amphibious vehicles can also carry passengers on board who can disembark once the amphibious vehicle is in a land hex.
Weaponized amphibious vehicles cannot fire from a water hex, from within a "Amphibious barge."
In a water hex, amphibious vehicles travel at the speed of the "amphibious barge" that carries them.
In land hexes, amphibious vehicles travel at the amphibious vehicle's own speed, usually higher than that of the "amphibious barge" that transported them to the beach.
The crew of the "amphibian barge" cannot voluntarily disembark on the beach and remain as an inherent crew in the "amphibian barge".
The "amphibian barge" can embark any unit on its side without the need for those units to be amphibious.
Own broken units may be routed into an "amphibious barge" for evacuation or rally.

JUNGLE

In the Pacific Theater of Operations (PTO) forest/woods hexes are Jungle hexes. However, to "realistically" portray the difficulties of movement through jungle would require the use full Movement Capacity each such hex entered. But the excitement level of scenarios using this MF cost would be dreadful, to say the least.
An infantry unit needs to spend 3MF to enter a Jungle hex.
All vehicles cannot enter a Jungle hex.
A Jungle hex is a level 1 or 2 obstacle that blocks the LOS.

LIGHT JUNGLE

In the Pacific Theater of Operations (PTO) Light Woods hexes are Light Jungle hexes.
The jungle causes all types of problems which, coupled with the Japanese ability to make use of these problems, can cause much concern to any attacker. Knowing what terrain features will slow down the attack and knowing where the general direction of the attack will take place makes it much easier to set up a few nasty surprises.
Japanese soldiers knew how to move through the jungle. All squads and half-squads of the Japanese Imperial Army, except Conscripts, have the ability of the Stealth Movement. That is, the Japanese can move without being detected automatically, even if they are adjacent to an enemy unit. To be spotted, an enemy unit must either perform a successful spotting attempt, or the Japanese unit must fire or move in open terrain in the LOS of an enemy unit of Good Order. The Japanese CANNOT use Stealth Movement while performing Double-timing movement with a leader, but can use Stealth Movement to enter Melee.
An infantry unit needs to spend 2MF to enter a Light Jungle hex.
It cost 5 MP for fulltracked vehicles to enter a Light Jungle hex.
It cost 7 MP for halftracked vehicles to enter a Light Jungle hex.

Native Guides

The average speed of infantry on a jungle trail was between four and 15 miles per day (depending on the exact nature of the terrain and weather), if troops were unencumbered with sick or wounded personnel. The use of native guides (employed by both sides whenever possible) could reduce travel times dramatically; with their superior local knowledge of obstacles or short-cuts, Papuan guides in New Guinea, for instance, could shorten a 36-hour journey to as little as 45 minutes!

A native guide is represented in Heroes and Leaders mod by a low-ranking Leader, usually a corporal, with a lower morale factor than the rest of the Leaders in his army.
For example, "Japan Guide Teruo Nakamura" or "Japan Guide Subhas Chandra Bose", are native guides who fought in the Imperial Japan Army.
A native guide has associated a "Speedy" Skill Card that adds 2 movement points to this guide and all units stacked in the guide’s hex. Therefore, the Double-timing MMCs whit this guide have 8 Movement Points, which is the maximum movement capacity for infantry units.
If stacked units in a guide’s hex are Assault Movement capable, they expend up to 4 MPs and then fire.
Except for all of the above, a native guide behaves the same as the rest of the other leaders and has similar characteristics.

RICE PADDIES

A Rice Paddy in Heroes and Leaders mod is one which the rice plants are at their mature height, Unless a special rule says otherwise.
In reality, a Rice Paddy field could be "Dry", though would perhaps be a more appropriate term for this type were it not for the fact that calling a paddy "dry but muddy" would sound a bit odd. An Irrigated paddy is one that is flooded with several inches of water; any rice growing in it is not yet tall enough to affect LOS.
It should be noted that the rice-paddy depictions and rules are highly abstracted.
The actual paddy banks are assumed to be anywhere within the area represented by the paddy hex.

PALM TREES

In the Pacific Theater of Operations (PTO) Orchard hexes are Palm Trees.
Each Palm Trees hex is treated as a normal orchard hex except as stated otherwise.
Palm Trees, while much taller than the fruit trees normally found in orchards, have significantly less foliage. Moreover, the fronds are concentrated at the very top of the trunks, thus providing less of a hindrance to sight. For this reason, and for the sake of simplicity, the one-level height of orchards has been retained.

LANGKAH JUNGLE TRAIL

Most of the "roads" in the Pacific were Langkah Jungle Trails.
The jungle was almost universally regarded as impenetrable (based mostly on observations from the rear seat of staff cars). The Allies were fatally dependent on the few roads in existence and, contrary, the Japanese travelling as light as possible, mainly on bicycles but also using mules, native labor and even elephants. Motor vehicles were kept to a minimum. Roads were, in any case, not forever necessarily a faster means of travel.

It grows well in sub-humid or humid grasslands or open woodlands. It occurs generally in damp conditions adjacent to swampy areas and drainage lines. Often being found in jungle "clearings" and sometimes covering broad expanses of otherwise-open ground. Leaves are narrow, rigid, blade-shaped, up to 1 m long, 3-10 mm broad, bearded at the base and glabrous in their upper part. The edges of its leaves are sharp and can cause lacerations.

CAVES

While it is true that other nationalities utilized cave positions on occasion, the Japanese used them far more extensively than anyone else. A scenario can always allow caves to be used by another nationality, should it be necessary for historical accuracy.
The caves are a set of tunnels dug in the mountains to connect different fortifications.
Caves hexes are the entry and exit hexes of the underground networks of tunnels, usually dug in the mountains, that connect the various fortifications of a cave complex.
A cave counter is a fortification unto itself.

Cave Complexes may not overlap.
HIP for caves, Cave Complexes, and their contents is in addition to all other HIP allowed to the Japanese side.
Each cave has a stacking capacity of three squad-equivalent (Overstocking can still occur).
Only a Hero, or Leader and all the units stacked with him, may, if they begin their impulse in a hex with a Cave Location, move to any other hex with other Cave Location within a range of six hexes.
A Cave Complex consists at least of two entrance/exit Locations which must be within six hexes of each other.
Only Good Order Infantry may enter and move inside a Cave Complex net from a Cave Location.
The squads and half-squads cannot move through the Cave Complex network without being stacked with a Hero or a Leader.
Heroes or Leaders can only move through the Cave Complex network if they have a "Sewer Rat" Skill Card.
Furthermore, only those units granted Sewer Movement capability, may enter the Cave.
Such movement is considered a Movement inside a Cave Complex network, and is not subject to Opportunity Fire.
Movement inside a Cave Complex network must start in a Cave Location and end in other Cave Location or Bunker Location or Fortress Location.
Movement inside a Cave Complex network must be performed as one combined stack, accompanied by a Hero or Leader.
If the destination hex is occupied by enemy troops, the units that made Movement inside a Cave Complex network conduct Melee combat as per standard Melee rules.
The Caves are also connected to the Tunnels underground network, and the units can move freely from one Tunnel Location to another of Cave, and vice versa, always within the limits of six hexes of maximum range.
Units in a Cave may not portage more than their IPC nor push a Gun.
Movement inside a Cave Complex network cannot be used to move beneath any Water Obstacle hex.
