    Out of the 3 infantry box sets that I did of Warlords for US I say the Rangers is the best as you have the options of making a flamethrower, sniper, and bazooka teams where as the USMC and infantry you can only do bazooka with just regular (no scoped rifles) infantry as filler snipers the Rangers actually have M-1903 A3 Springfield's with scopes.
    The thing with the AS-42 Sahariana scout car is you got so many options for load out I think it is close to 10 where you can have a forward and rear pintle MMG and then 4 different main/ central pintle mounting everything from a MMG to an AT rifle, to a light autocannon to a light AT gun you can basically fit it out to what ever you want it to fill. The autocannon is probably the most flexible out of them all as it has the flak rule along with the MMG's

      Thanks for the comments, I love the Army Rangers, such a strong and versatile team. I use them frequently.
      The Sahariana is great, but is a bit of a glass hammer, but as you say the options available are great and allow for a flexible, recce vehicle which should be a bit of a thorn to deal with.

    Where do y’all get the tabletop mats? I’d love some larger mats like that where I can put hills underneath

    • @theministryofminiatures
      @theministryofminiatures  Před 11 měsíci

      Hi, the fleece mats are from Geek Villain, they produce loads of fleece mats that easily fit hills under them.
      I did a review of the mats:

      Really nice mats and easy fold/unfold and great detail too!
      Glad you liked the battle 👍🏻

    Italian list : 1 one shot tank, 1 mmg squad, and 4 bland regular 10 man squad with an overpriced lmg. With other nation doesn't work with italians it horribly doesn't work. Good job with the battle report but to make games interesting you need interesting lists imo

      Thanks, it’s Olafs first time with the Italians… if you check out some of our other videos we have some variations on German armies as Rick likes to go full cheese 🧀 Olaf has used DAK so something different.
      Hope you still enjoyed the video.

    • @rodneip7077
      @rodneip7077 Před 8 měsíci +1

      yep, totally agree. Everything looks great but makes bolt action as if a heavily unbalanced game. Great sportsmanship though, specially from the Italian player,

    • @theministryofminiatures
      @theministryofminiatures  Před 8 měsíci +1

      @rodneip7077 yes, Olaf is a great sportsman and is pretty easy going. Glad you liked the game, some are well balanced, others not so, just depends on the forces, the scenery and the scenario… but they are good fun 👍🏻😃

    your channel is very good, and channel videos are very good.
    People are interested in watching your channel videos. But the videos don't reach millions of people, because there are some problems,
    Channel videos are not SEO optimized.
    On page SEO, and off page SEO not done. These are required to increase the channel. etc.

    • @theministryofminiatures
      @theministryofminiatures  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Thanks for the feedback and advice, something for us to look into, we have some SEO via meta tags on the videos, but to be honest wargaming videos are never going to get millions of views 😉
      We can look into what would help, so thanks for that…
      …glad you liked the videos! 👍🏻

    so your 100+ points recon vehicle is worth less against infantry , tanks , small teams , arty . why do peope buy these crappy things

    • @theministryofminiatures
      @theministryofminiatures  Před 5 měsíci

      It’s not always about what is best, it’s also about what we like, what feels thematic or even just what we have….
      …we usually go with what we like to play for the battle.
