RECON BY FIRE 4 REPLACEMENT COUNTERSHEETS
As you know the counters for Recon By Fire 4 were printed with the "traditional" back of the sheet on the "Front" of the countersheet. This detracted from these beautiful countersheets. We have worked hard to resolve this issue and are now pleased to offer the replacement countersheets.
If you already purchased RbF-4, you can get replacement counters in a few ways.
1. We can send them separately to you now by ordering through our web site. (and pay a nominal shipping and handling charge)
2. Or you can ask them to be included in your next HoB order. In that case include your Recon 4 order number in the info section of a paypal order. (at a reduced S&H charge)
You can order counters as a stand-alone sheet and have your replacement shipped in the next product. We are working on two projects immediately for release in the next few months, and will remind you of your options.
We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused and hope you understand our need to handled the situation as outlined.

Next, It is only fair to inform you that over 2001 there were discussions with MMPs lawyers and ours. Although no formal agreement was reached between the lawyers or between any parties involved, we feel for the most part the matter is closed. We have promised that we will not do counters that are in the system. We will try and do our best to cover actions that are not planned by MMP and we will submit some projects for publication by MMP (if they are interested) in the project. We will not reprint SS-I and SS-II counter sheets and will not reprint Berlin or Fortress Cassino counter sheets. There still is disagreement on some levels but at least on our end there is a much better chance of cooperation with our concessions and the organizational change. We have only collectors quantities of the remaining counter sheets that are in question and will not sell any more after they are gone.
Heat of Battle is dedicated to bringing you the best in tactical scenarios for your favorite WWII tactical wargame. We have a proven track record of having interesting and balanced situations. We have built a reputation of customer service, historical accuracy, and high excitement levels to enhance your limited gaming time.
We are gamers and invite you to join the team with submissions..
