  • US and West German forces prepare to engage Pact forces to foil their attempt to reach the Rhine river. A battalion of Soviet T-80s with helicopter support approach, but their exhausted East German allies are no where to be seen.

    The identifier on the NATO units (particularly the infantry) is Coy/Bn Bde/Div, so B/3 1/8 is Company B, 3rd Battalion, 1st Brigade, 8th Division.

    Very good explanation of the setup and rules. You did such a great job demystifying this kinda monster game

    if i recall correctly, turn ends on 2nd End Ops card - even when the scenario has 3 in the deck. Worth double checking that.

      You are correct. I catch this around Turn 3. Thanks!

    Very interesting, but hard to watch the original setup part with the camera wobbling. Any chance you could get a small tripod?

    • @CounterAttack
      @CounterAttack  Před 3 lety

      Sorry about that. I have some tripod-like gear but it's hard to use on a large area. I need to either get a stabilized camera or find a better rig.

    Thanks for this.
    I watched your videos on Fields of Fire and they helped me alot.
    I have actually played this game and it is very good. I need to point out one error though. You said on pulling the 3rd End Operations card means the turn is over. I actually believe you still end the turn when the 2nd card is pulled. Having 3 End Operations cards just makes it more likely that some units won't be activated that turn - iirc they definitely get activated the next turn...so no one formation ever goes more than one turn without being activated.

    45:02 From Facebook by Keith Tracton:Yes it is blocked if it clips the corner of the woods hex.

      It also passed through two cultivated (obscuring) hexes, which would block LOS on a level 0 -> level 0 LOS (in season).

    ugh I still have mine in the shrink with the solo assistant but it's very intimidating and I just can't bring myself to read the rules yet

      It is a fairly easy game to pick up. The rule book looks daunting - but it's so well laid out, nice big font and lots of pics that you just can't go wrong. Dive in - you'll be surprised

    how did the Americans in the village know the wnermy were coming if they had no LOS?
