Hammer’s Anvils - Handbook 2
The second volume in the Hammer's Slammers game
system: Hammer's Anvils contains rule enhancements to the
basic system in Handbook 1 and optional rules like:
Separate Detachments (for multi detachment forces);
The Whites of their eyes (range bands);
The Big Guns (on and off table artillery);
Mounting Chaos (loss of TU's and what it does to
leadership);
Overkill (why big guns do more damage);
Courage Under Fire (varying suppression on infantry based on quality); and
A Leader of Men (using leadership to remove suppression).
Included are rules for Mortars and MLRS systems; mines and
countermeasures; spotting with snipers; top and bottom vehicle defensive
arcs, what happens if an APC ‘brews up’ plus enhanced weapon charts,
Tactical Unit Points Costs; examples of platoon sized detachments.
Finally, there are two appendices (names and numbers of Slammers vehicles
and a Timeline for the Slammers universe) plus 10 pages of descriptions of
the colour plates and some errata for the first volume.
