Whoops! That is such a shame, and ironic that the motorised sections are slower if they have a transport... I guess the best use for flank attack then is to load up on Mountain troops and rush them forward through rough ground at the end of turn 2, ready for a turn 3 charge? Jonny

@@TabletopTommies yep, which is a bit situational based on the table you’re on haha

Was there a specific idea in the video that you disagreed with? Jonny

Cheers, they aren't winning any competitions anytime soon, but as a tournament army, I'm pretty happy with how they turned out!

@@TabletopTommies Well, you build 'em with Love and Fun in Mind. That Matters!

Thanks for the kind words. Let us know any ideas you have to make out content better! We are aiming to have the next podcast epiode out next Sunday. Jonny

Thank you. We did somewhat cover this in the welsh nationals episode of the podcast, but perhaps a battle report might give us the time to really dive into turn by turn tactics... 🤔

Thank you. I must admit, I like it both ways. I have a Sealion Brandenburger army where nearly every model is a unique sculpt. But for things where you have lots of the same type of unit, you are absolutely right. For example, having all the ampulomets be identical in pose and basing really does reduce the brain space trying to find them and line up their arcs of fire just right on the table. Jonny

Da comrade! For the Motherland!

Always great to see behind the curtain, gutted I can't make it to this one if I'm honest! Jonny

My take away is that these lists really show how important the player's ability is in Bolt Action, lots of unexpected lists in the top 10, and "strong" lists in the mid table. Jonny

Thank you sir! My list is a response build to an incredibly stale meta. There is realy no point in going toe to toe at eyelevel with brits or soviets in the current rules. They have advantageous/broken rules that will outperform pretty much any other faction at eyelevel 85% of the time. Hence why platoon restrictions and dice caps buff especially brits so much. Spam and rogue picks are a handy tool against them, as most ppl never played vs eg. Dutch. Also the list is very effective at board control/bullying. The Dutch are a hidden gem of the fine dining world haha

Thanks Manuel, great to see you again and congratulations on your result!

You're welcome, hope to see you at the English Open!

This one? czcams.com/video/B58pPOl-_uc/video.htmlsi=xKZD7xnsiGzSDnuY

Thank you! Welsh Nationals and Open are absolute pillars of the UK tournament scene now.

Allez les bleus 🇨🇵! They were indeed on target, very enjoyable game and will definitely see you at the Welsh Open! Phil

Likewise Nick!

Fantastic! Let us know if there are any topics you think we should cover!

Always welcome! See you at a tourney soon hopefully!

Coming soon! Check back tomorrow!

Sorry we missed your sniper team! Did you use the inexperienced half track to transport anything or was it used just as armoured mmg support?

@TabletopTommies not your fault :) I did yes, used them to transport my heer Grenadiers :) I'll have a look at updating my list for the next tournament :)

@@mattbellis3311 the list fiddling and finessing following a tournament is one of my favourite parts of the game... Hopefully see you at the next one, Jonny

Absolutely, usually I'd say that the bottom placed armies are always the best place to find interesting armies, but at the welsh nationals, there were quirky lists all the way to the top.

Great advice, done is better than perfect!

Thank you! Good luck getting them all done, it's worth all the effort when you get them all on the table fully painted! Or worst case, it gives you a few hours to listen to a bolt action podcast... ;)

There's been no further rules released yet. But I agree, scattering 2d6" would be a much better way for smoke to work, and this is usually a house rule in any tournament pack I write. Jonny

Thanks, was a fun one to make! Some great content over on your channel aswell :)

Thank you, stayed tuned for surprise graphs in future videos.

Always leave them wanting more! But more seriously, thank you! I have dabbled with some painting and basing videos in the Soviets from Scratch playlist. We are just starting our CZcams content off the back of the podcast and I am speed building these for the Welsh Nationals this weekend, alongside videoing the progress, so leaning towards shorter videos at the moment. You can expect us to branch out into more video topics, such as rules, tactics, more extensive builds and battle reports in the future, so please keep letting us know the topics you'd like us to cover. TTFN, Jonny

How did it do? Did he manage to hit anything or set any tanks on fire?

Good to hear. That's the hope, we'll see how it pans out this weekend I guess!

Thanks, the force is really coming along nicely!

I was aiming to theme the army to the seige of Budapest, so by that point in the war the Soviets would have captured a lot of German materiel... 😅 Jonny

Great stuff, let us know how it goes!

Awesome! Thank you! Incase you missed the announcement in the last episode: we won't be putting out an episode next week but we will be releasing the next episode, a special one year anniversary Welsh Nationals debrief, on Sunday 12th May.

Welcome aboard! Let us know if there are any particular topics you'd like us to cover!

Top Tips!

Thanks for your support! Let us know if there are any particular topics you'd like us to cover!

I love the idea of battle reports. Talk about list building, decision making in games, strategies.
