    Finally getting a chance to catch up with my feed, you keep finding an interesting gems to play😀 This one looks really interesting and I've just got some reads on the time period - another one to be added to my wishlist. Not ordering it yet, though, as just pre-ordered the latest GCACW game via SCG so my gaming budget is gone...

    FYI The 4th scenario, "The Battle of Sari Bair", is a real gem, and as good as the 1st. It features the Kiwi's assault to take the heights of Chunuk Bair.

    Sorry to hijack this video with a question but I just saw your 2mm armies. They look absolutely smashing. Can you please tell me what books you used to figure out how to base them? I am really struggling with the Dutch, Swedish systems as most of the diagrams I see are just copied over and over again from previous sources and make little sense. You seem to have nailed the Swedish deployment. Any help will be much appreciated. Cheers!

    Thank you for all your efforts and work involved in your videos, very enjoyable. May I ask how you "playtest" card driven games? I mostly game solo, and the trend to card driven games, whereby a lot of tension and enjoyment comes from not knowing what cards your opponent has/is going to play, is unsuitable for solitaire play. Anyway, great stuff. Cheers.

    • @prasutagustheorwellwargamer
      @prasutagustheorwellwargamer Před 17 dny

      @buckospiffle594 Thanks for your kind words, and glad you are enjoying the channel. Cdg are a tricky one and there is no perfect answer ....sometimes i play both sides and try not to think about the other hands, sometimes use a solo bot if available, bgg often has great stuff produced by other gamers. My other technique is to pick several cards i would potentially use and roll randomly to decide which one...i often play solo myself so appreciate this is not an easy fix :)

    Thanks for your thoughts, sounds like an interesting game, appreciate the difference in the unit types as well as focus on bombardment.

    Good review thanks. I’ve got one game, Cassino. Came very quickly, excellent production values and it looks like a an interesting system. BUT. I haven’t played any of the four games in the box. The problem is the rules. The translation isn’t good enough for me to be confident that I am playing the game correctly. Unlike Westerplatte it is a moderately complex system and I think it needs someone fluent in English, Polish AND a board gamer to translate the rules effectively. This is such a shame. This is a quality product, which seems excellent value for money, with a great range of titles and the company deserve a far bigger audience.

    Completely agree with your assessment of VV - really love how they cover a lot of topics "off a beaten path". Unfortunately, both ancient tactical game I've had a while back and more recent Wattignies 1793 I've tried were duds, with rules somehow not "clicking" for me. Plus the graphics is really nice but I much prefer same graphics for the same unit types. Not giving up on them yet, though, have a few more titles to try😁

    Interested in how you choose which games to buy ? You buy from great shop in Liverpool ? Liked the video , thanks - often watch reviews of bigger games that I'd probably never have mental capacity to learn and play .

      Hi Matt thanks for your kind comments....in terms of chpsing, i tend to pick games that cover eras i am interested in, unusual conflicts or games that are likely to be payable normally within a couple of hours. Yes scg offer great service and pretty much the only supplier of lots of games in the uk. I personally also struggle with bigger games and would never have the time to complete them :)

    Hi James, thanks for both the video and the give away 😁 It's currently on my virtual (Vassal) table and I'm learning the game. I'm not the "artsy" person but really enjoy the presentation as well as historical notes - didn't know anything about the conflict until now...

    Absolutely outstanding 😍 loving the look of them, I can't remember but are you using 60x30 mm base's for the unit's?

      Hi Simon, thanks for your comments, most appreciated. They are indeed 60x30mm :)

      Thanks for letting me know, definitely something I'm leaning towards, I have the polemos ACW rules and the thought of 24 6mm figures representing a brigade just doesn't do it for me lol so have been toying up for a while with the idea of using irregular miniatures 2mm and making up the brigades as you have done. Thank you for making these videos they are a great help and after you showcasing your 6mm Polish GNW army I managed to bag one on eBay lol

      @simonwilliams3546 totally agree Simon, although I have a confederate 6mm army as well! I do love the brigades in 2mm using the blocks. Yoy can see the regiments and you get the cohesive look. Glad it is getting you inspired as with the polish GNW. They are a fun army to play although quite brittle. I must ger my swedes done also..

    I love it that you did not put those hideous labels on top of the bases. If necessary put them underneath. Otherwise what's the point. You may was well use counters. The beauty of 2mm or to some extent 6mm is that you can make the table look like an actual full scale batter. So lablels defeat the purpose. IMHO

    Hi, James, thanks for your kind comments! And indeed, it's somewhat difficult to make people interested in so-little known periods and conflicts. But that's why we make them! 😉
