It's about time some Michigan group put some good rules together for reenactments. Too many of the reenactments at Custer and Onondaga were little more than...
Thank you WIlhelm .. I'm still finishing up the Second Edition which will be easier to read for the newcomer and a little more specific. We'll have some...
Would it be helpful for the COs to know what the total points for the battle would be? The TOs have 10 - 40 points each. I'd break it down into Allied, XX...
I think it might be too helpful. Part of the excitement was not knowing how we were really doing. There should be some uncertianty. If you know you have all...
Alan, I think knowing how many items are out there for each side is good enough. The total points for all objectives is something we don't need to know. It...
In the FILES section of this discussion group. Please do a proof read for me and offer me feedback. We'll have smaller cheat sheets available for the...

here is my third rewrite, based on some suggestions. Please let me know what you think! -- ALan...

Well that is a fair question .. based on the lack of feedback, I wasn't sure any of you had actually read the 2nd Edition!! In the "third rewrite" I...
Hi Alan, You got me thinking with my old "Army" cap. First, I like anybody who can control a "cluster ****". Once in a while the reenactments would turn into...
Wow what a weekend!! It has been a long time since I'd hosted such an event and it was even bigger than we had hoped for! The Military staff at Fort Custer...
BTW -- during the Custer event, Andy Kerwin of 2ndPz informed me that he was the author of the "heavy water" scenario I mention in the RETO Introduction!! --...
The axis had problems. Nobody really knew who was incharge of any unit. The SS all better start meeting to figure out an over all command and squad unit...
Well, lets solve that. At the next event there should be an overall German commander. The real Germans did this sort of thing all the times and beat the...
It may seem like an easy thing to do, and many of the soldaten will follow whichever leader is chosen, BUT you must realize there are units of four or five...
Scott, I have given the problem a good deal of thought for more than a few reenactments. At an event there should a pile of arm bands with rank. In the real...
To sum up, I agree with all the postings... for RETO to work WELL, a definite command structure AS ENFORCED BY THE EVENT ORGANIZXER is required. I deferred...
Hello Group, The only way the RETO system is going to work is to have people in charge that know what they are doing and have the others respect the chain of...
Time frames are nice, but not always realistic. Of course, reenactments by nature are not always realistic. I have been thinking about some of the other...
That playing guns however old you are there will always ones who do not realise that we are the walking dead and dieing is our way of life but yeah it could...
