Following on from my musings over how the new vehicle aspects from Chain of Command 2 might be applied, I thought it was time to consider how the 1940 Support Options might be classified in to the new support types.
Chain of Command 2 classifies support options according to specific types. These classifications are indicated by colour-coding on the support lists, making it easy to determine which types of support are available for a given scenario.
These are:
- Blue - denotes Engineering support choices
- Grey - represents Mortars
- White - indicates Infantry Units
- Green - for Support Units
- Yellow - defines Transports
- Orange - signifies Light Vehicles and Armour
- Red - represents proper Armoured Fighting Vehicles
Whilst the Blitzkrieg 1940 book scenarios don't have these additional support classifications applied to them (yet.. watch this space), it might be helpful to consider how the 1940 Support Options would be classified if you choose to use them with the new scenarios in the core rulebook.
There is the addition of new types of Support Option such as replenish points that just predate the creation of the 1940 rules, so those need adding in too.
With no definitions of what necessarily constitutes each of the classifications of support I have used my judgement (flawed though it may be) to make a suggestion as to what each might be considered to be. Feel free to amend or point out any errors I may have included.
The updated classified Support Lists are available in the Files Page on the blog, there is one for each of the nations in the 1940 book.
Enjoy!!
