What's your favourite special rule for your army? - Hry
Seriously interested in getting into Bolt Action, I'm going to be following this series closely!
More bolt action is needed can't get enough! From unboxings to painting tutorials. Let's see more!
An interesting factual WW2 engagement to recreate within BA I would suggest, would be the battle for Castle Itter. It was the only battle where Americans and Germans (Anti-Nazi Wehrmacht Heer) fought as allies during the war (against Waffen SS). When you read about it on Wiki you'd be forgiven for thinking it was the latest Tarantino film - it's superb and TRUE!
The Big Bolt Action Locked & Loaded Show? So it's "The Big B.A.L.L.S.?
I like it!
if i was to get into it, I would do a Soviet army inspired by the fighting at Khalkhin Gol in 1939. So a light army but facing the Japanese. its a part of the second world war that not many look into or really re enact to any great degree
Always got to have big squads, irrespective of what actual game [system] you're playing - the only reason to ever take small squads, in my opinion, is to use up some remaining points that you can't find something more exciting to do with ...
Loving the increased attention on Bolt Action. I would love to see some similar love in regards to Black Powder Naps!
Please continue your Bolt Action series; I'm thoroughly enjoying the expert reviews!
Thanks!
Jack
Love it. Keep em' coming!
please do MOAR Bolt Action kinda things
thank You!
FYI Finland technically lost the winter war as 40% of of Finland became part of the soviet union. Finland is interesting because they fought the winter war, then the second world war then they fought the Germans in 1944 in Finland known as the Lapland war
They technically lost the war but did they embaress the bear to no end with quite a few bloody noses in their invasion.
Great comment obviously a thinking man!👍
Yes please for more bolt action weekends I'd love to go to one of ya weekends ☺
Yes. More Bolt Action!
Bolt Action! Yes keep it going guys. This is the best game going.
That At At in the background!
More Bolt Action please!
I am thinking of getting into this game. I have never played anything liked it but it looks like alot of fun. I have no friends to play with so were can I find communitys near me ? and shoud I buy a army or one of the started boxes like the band of brothers one ?
I watched it again, I still like it :)
Can the US lists mix infantry types? For example, can I take mainly airborne but take a squad of rangers, and a army howitzer? Or do you need to stick to the themes, ie if you are usjng us marines, all your forces have to be marines, etc.
themes are up to you, but you may take whatever you wish from your army book.
You certainly can mix infantry types. My Hurtgen Forest themed US list has a squad of rangers and rest are regular troops. Bolt Action's force organization requires an officer and two squads before it allows you to take 1 unit each from a bunch of weapon system groups such as mortars, dedicated machine gun teams, armored cars, howitzers, and tanks. After you bought the requirements you could have a medium mortar team, a heavy machine gun team (if your country has one), a light howitzer, something like a M8 Greyhound or a Puma as your armored car, AND a tank, tank destroyer, or self-propelled artillery piece. Well, if you have the points avaible to include all those things. But you couldn't have two mortars regardless of the caliber in one platoon unless your country allows it (The United States doesn't).
Awesome
More Bolt Action!
whens the next episode out guys?
MORE bolt action plllsssssss!!!!!
More Bolt Action content required!
PLEASE !!! do more bolt action features!!!
More!!!!
Thanks for the BA stuff...Warren, get to work!
I love doing historical accuracy. I am currently building a 1942 German Panzerarmee Afrika 90th Light Infantry Division. I have another buddy doing a German Panzerarmee Afrika 21st Panzer Division and our enemies are two of my other friends doing an American III Corps (though part of the II Corps in North Africa) 1st Infantry Division and British 8th Army Polish 3rd Carpathian Rifle Division.
Can I buy the most expensive products and use them vs my opponent who isn’t very good? I also use my infantry to capture his tanks and use them to drive over his infantry then I drive them from the table and jump out and continue fighting. I also use my airborne to jump from fighter planes after I shoot him up
Bolt action tournament!!!!!
I am personally going for an italian army, they were good soldiers, they just had the same problem as the french.
Italien were good soldiers? Haha...
You think im joking??Search it up. Erwin Rommels forces consisted of Italians and Germans. It was under Rommels command that the italians shined. They were competent soldiers capable of doing great things but they suffered under the command of horrible leaders that knew nothing about leading soldiers into battle.
deathlegionair
That they shined in Africa was a combination of competent leadership, but also because the british elite troops were bound by german divisions. I am sure, they had brave soldier, just so very few.
Remember, the french had the same problem but they never got to prove themselves really, the only person to really prove the french worth was a tank commander who retook a town from a german tank platoon.
+deathlegionair The only real shining factor for the Italians; they treated their P.O.W's with decency and respect.
the IG tank your thinking of is a Leman Russ Demolisher
More Bolt Action please some more FOW and do some Force on Force plz
it would be nice if you stream the boot camp on twitch
First day of working for Warlord, Ches sold me a Churchill crocodile!
That’s because you are a mug!
Are you sure that guy works for Warlord games? He consistently gets rules wrong. In this one the only one I caught was the German rule for Hitlers buzzsaw where its a +1 to equal 5 dice not four and he got that wrong. He has also gotten rules wrong in other games I have watched on this channel. Make sure everyone reads the rule book and checks the FAQ and Erratas on the website.
Note that at the time this video was done we were still using 1st edition rules. German MG's got a buff in 2nd edition.
I have just started with the Japanese...i can even bring bamboe spears to the fight if i want to.
For teh Germans it seems like a very bad idea to put flamethrowers on a transport, due to the rule where if a transport ever ends its turn closer to an enemy squad than a friendly one it is immediately destroyed.
Sterm teigers were used 1s and they were not very good
More BA is required
yes more
so many new games, absolutely no money for any of them.. or even Fantasy or 40k
+J.A.Ratt85 what
hunter reeves shitty typing meant to say no money
thanks
Japanese can they fight the European
The storm tigers (great name!) weren't effective or used very effectively. VERY short range and the main gun isn't user friendly. Aiming them was crap. Like most armor they were very vulnerable to infantry attacks if they weren't supported by ground troops. They were great for taking out hardened bunkers and it doesn't get any better on frontal armor but it has a very specialized function in combat and they're SLOW. Flamethrowers and armor fists are just as good for bunkers and don't cost as much and you get more for the same price and they're more flexible. Don't forget to pop smoke when crossing into the open and always have snipers and 60mm mortars at a min. Basic rule of war #9 He who has the longest ranged weapons usually wins (70% of all casualties of WW2 were from artillery). Rule #1942 More is better.
PS. Never played the game. Looks fun.
had to pause.. went to your website... dawn of war 3... shut up!!!
l
Bolt Action is a great game only the minis (not the tanks) are so shitty. Its like playing with miniatures from the 80's
You guys really need someone for accurate things about ww2.historic facts and pronouncing ww2 german.
Again, bullshit about Finish War. Finns repel soviets only at first month when forces were mostly equal and soviets were ill prepared. After "homework" on mistakes Finns were forced to peace nice and easy.
"QUANTITY HAS A QUALITY ALL OF ITS OWN
If you have more men than they have bullets, they will eventually run out of ammunition."
Is this your historical accurate assumption? It's not as insulting as it is stupid and looks more as cold-war propaganda. As far as I know, the latest historical researches shows 1-1,3 ratio to Nazis/Soviet casualties. The main reason of huge losses were irrational ideas of terminating the civilians and infernal inhuman attitude to soviet POWs.
Due to above said and historical evidences it would be more accurate to give soviets couple of free artillery barrages than this suspicious idiocy of "having more men than they have bullets".
