Gamefound: gamefound.com/projects/lnlp/ju-87-stuka-ace
Ju 87 Stuka Ace is a solitaire game designed by Gottardo Zancani. Ju 87 Stuka Ace allows you to simulate Junker 87 (Stuka) operations throughout the course of World War II, from the beginning of the Blitzkrieg in Poland to the anti-tank operations in the Russian campaign.
What makes Ju 87 Stuka Ace special is the brand-new game engine, built around what made the Stuka unique, the dive-bombing. This method of attack is very different from the standard bombing operated by other aircraft, and Ju 87 Stuka Pilot fully reflects this uniqueness. This is the attack sequence in JU 87 Stuka Ace: select the bomb release height, proceed with the dive, consider the current formation height and visibility, release the bombs at the set height, and then execute the delicate pull phase. Each of these phases will be managed by making optimal use of the action cards in the player's hand, but you must carefully plan your play since you don't immediately draw a new card after playing it. No dice are needed to play the game, as all rolls are resolved through card draws.A look at Hell Frozen Over release for Lock and Load tactical Digital!Lock n Load Publishing2023-03-08 | The latest release for Lock and Load Tactical Digital-'Hell Frozen Over' is available now on Steam!Heroes of Defiance Battle Pack 2 for Lock and Load Tactical Digital now available on Steam!Lock n Load Publishing2023-02-23 | A look at the new DLC for Heroes of Defiance for LnLT Digital available on Steam.Glory and Empire Basic Training 7 - ChargesLock n Load Publishing2022-12-07 | This Bootcamp Training Video will discuss the Charges in the Glory and Empire Napoleonic game system.

A look at Day of Heroes released for Lock and Load Tactical Digital available on Steam!How It Feels When You Play Point Blank V is for Victory!Lock n Load Publishing2022-09-30 | Point Blank is a tactical squad infantry card game set in World War II Europe and is loosely based on the award-winning Lock โn Load Tactical game series. Players do not need not be familiar with any of the Lock โn Load Tactical rules to play. Point Blank is designed by Sean Druelinger and is a game that dares to be different, with new game concepts that give a whole new feel to tactical wargaming.
Point Blank V is for Victory is for two players pitted against each other in situational combat scenarios. There is also a solo option as well as partnerships in teams of two. Each scenario presents the players with a unique situation involving squads of men, support weapons, leaders, and individual armored fighting vehicles. The first game in the series will pit the forces of the USA against Germany just after the landings in Normandy (June 1944) through October 1944. Each player has victory conditions determined by the scenario in which to defend or take objectives, seek and destroy their opponentโs units, or one of many other different scenario objectives.
The game is played on an abstract map board made up of terrain cards in the game and managed through a distance system that accounts for the range of targets, line of sight, and defensive attributes. The player has units that start out on the map and gradually work their way towards their objectives by advancing through the battlefield, all the while conducting combat actions against their opponent or defending their troops from return fire or whatever hell that awaits them. Players draw cards from a common action deck where they will play actions on their units on the map board. The game is an IGOUGO impulse system, and turns are managed when the action deck is exhausted. (Some scenarios may require multiple deck exhaustion to finish the game). Actions in the game consist of Fire, Move, Assault, Rally, etc. The action cards contain dice icons on them to determine random results.
One of the unique features of the game is that it contains a deck of terrain cards that are not part of the action deck. As players change terrain, they will draw a terrain card in which their moving units will occupy. Some action cards, such as Recon helps players manage what terrain they occupy, but your opponent may have other plans for your moving troops during their turn. Two players can play a game in about an hour (depending on the scenario size), and if you cannot find an opponent, then try the game solo system.Breaking News - New Prototypes ArrivedLock n Load Publishing2022-08-25 | Here is a quick look at our printer prototypes for Heroes of the Bitter Harvest, Enemy At The Gates, and Valor of the 13th.
