I just happened to watch this on March 31st.

As usual good figure, terrain, game and banter. A nice tip for your minefields, is to also cut out the centre - leaving a picture frame with maybe 5mm or so border. They will look decent.

Just finished watching: nice one! Well done for playing it through properly!

One minor critique, though, if I may, please: you made frequent reference to shooting at "them" or "him", but it often wasn't clear which target was meant - especially when it was off-screen. If you are able to be more specific, it'd possibly help viewers...

Hi, Are you both using second edition or third edition rules? Good game :)

[chrisking]

Tricky game, but much much better on both sound and gimble-wrangling.

[chrisking]

Are you finding any particular misalignments whilst playing the previous edition's campaigns in third ed?

Hey guys need to keep the camera on the rolling of dice. Inquiring minds want to know lol

[CheefIndian]

Ooooh double the points on the Afrika Korps, double the fall haha

Not played any Bolt Action - but maybe i should have a look.. Sounded like 3rg Ed dumbed it down, I mean "streamlined" it a bit? Too much..?

G'day guys, I have an interesting house rule you might be interested in. When a vehicle is immobilised or destroyed, work out the amount of crew, roll a dice for each member. If the vehicle is immobilised, on a 5 or 6, they survive. If the vehicle is destroyed they survive on a roll of 6. Then they may join any infantry or artillery squad that is within Roll of 2 × D 6 + 6 inches.
As riflemen or loaders. If you are interested I have a number of house rules in regards to to " Suicidal bravery " mine fields and pre- sighted artillery. Contact me if you are interested. From Mick.D.
