    Glorious, I’m on the third battle of this binge watch, and I’m loving it. The confusion, the surprise, the game of strategic chicken. Hilarious.

    The first two battles kinda made me think the Chupacabras had a huge leg up, but this battle shows just how confusing fog of war, and such is. the fact that both teams bumbled into each other expecting the other to retreat or feint, was absolutely hilarious.
    The battle no one wanted, and the most deadly in the manner of mech lossage in the war so far.
    I love it. lol

    Nice to see House Korbyn step things up after those early successes by the Chupacabras!

    I am really loving this. Campaign games just add all kinds of choices you have to make for the long term.

    The look of these battle reports are awesome, and you explain everything very well. One note: on Turn 2, the Zeus took a fire control critical. That critical would not take effect until until the next turn (unless you have a house rule that says differently).

    • @WargamerStories
      @WargamerStories  Před 6 měsíci +1

      Yep, that was a mistake on our part for that battle. Other battles we started to implement critical damage effects in the following rounds.

    The problem of trying to predict the enemy's movements is that moment when you're really just projecting your own onto them xD

      Thanks! Half the fun is building the battle space. The other half is running your army across it!

    "got space?" lol
    These are fun to watch, I love alpha strike but don't get to play it with people. So these are scratching that itch.

    • @WargamerStories

      I am glad you're enjoying them! Hopefully there will be a tabletop battle in your near future!

  • @anthonycontreras5003
    @anthonycontreras5003 Před 3 měsíci

    Maybe set these battles up as like battle tech flash points on a playlists? Give you a chance for a story. I really like 👍 🍻

    Huge material loss for the Chupacabra's, the battle turned on it's head when that Zeus went down

    Have been binging these videos today and they're really good! Really fantastic production value, and very sharp and succinct batrep which is a rarity in the tabletop genre on youtube!
    I hope to see more down the line!

    As I play more Alpha Strike, I've learned Skill 4 and even 5 aren't that big of an issue. So what if your assault has Skill 2? He's a big target, versus a smaller swarm of little guys.

  • @peterarlington223
    @peterarlington223 Před 3 měsíci

    Not sure if it’s a thing in Alpha Strike, I’ve only ever played classic, but I’d have gone for the building at 15:50 instead of the mech.
    Blow up the giant stationary building and the mechs on top will take fall damage during the building collapse - especially if the building has a basement, making it a two level fall.
    For that matter I’d probably have done my artillery shot at the building too, get both before firing a shot and letting my mechs take on others instead - could have really turned the match another way.
    But only if fall damage from building works the same in Alpha Strike as it does in CBT?

    • @WargamerStories
      @WargamerStories  Před 3 měsíci +1

      I don't know if they are the same, but yes fall damage is a factor in Alpha Strike. The players started doing this when they got more comfortable in urban battles later in the war.

    Very cool video. I really like the story driven game. Can you tell us where to get the houses and colored bases?

    • @WargamerStories
      @WargamerStories  Před 6 měsíci +2

      colored bases were picked up off an Etsy retailer, just search for colored hex bases and you can find a few vendors who make them with different colors and have different prices and shipping.
      The houses were bought as STLs off MyMiniFactory. My local library has a 3D printer with very, very cheap prices.
      Here is the link to the artist who designed and sold the houses:

    • @WargamerStories

      Hey, I found the store I bought my colored hex bases from off Etsy. But shop around, see if you can find a good deal.

    Greatly enjoying your videos, where did you get your small houses?

    • @WargamerStories
      @WargamerStories  Před 6 měsíci

      They were 3D printed. I bought the STLs at MyMiniFactory and my local library does 3D printing for a very, very small fee.

    I am really enjoying these but I cant for the life of me work out the order that they should be played in. any chance of renaming them in sequence.
