    Tank out so early, making it tuff for the Americans!!! Tough break .

      Yeah, this was a rough game for the Airborne. The Waffen SS MMG was just murdering everyone. Thanks for watching!

    All in all very fun to watch told a great story and thank you for your effort. Just watch your command checks when you’re pinned and just some minor rules. Looking forward to the next one keep up the good work.

      Thanks for all the feedback, Steve. Definitely a little rusty. Hopefully, will get it all the next time (North Africa in a month or so). Appreciate you watching and all the support.

      I need to get my phone fixed so I can get Video’s back up and hopefully join you on your quest
      That’s why it’s easy for me to put shorts up because I don’t have sound on my end ( recording)
      Time for a new phone maybe…
      I’m going to try to do one with voice over of a blood red skies game we played a few weeks ago that was a lot of fun.

      Unfortunately, I've had to play solo a lot lately. But you're right; you definitely learn a lot. I've also found that I learn a lot more of what I missed in the editing process. Thanks for watching!

    love seeing games :) Kubelwagon has no weapons unless you pay the 15 points for an mmg and if you do that it loses all transport capacity and takes up armoured car slot.

    • @cullyn1189
      @cullyn1189 Рік тому +2

      And close combat the loser isn't determined by who has less models left (unless it is 0 models left) it is by who caused the most kills in that combat alone. If it is a draw you continue with another round straight away until one side gets less kills in a round and then that unit is destroyed. With them being SS and so fanatics it means that even if they score less kills and so would normally lose and be destroyed you continue just as if it had been a draw.

      Mark, I appreciate your feedback. Thanks for clearing the Kubelwagen issue up for me. Unfortunately, the Easyarmy selector I used was just for the transport. I'll swap out for a transport that can take
      a machine gun next time. As for close combat, that makes a lot more sense now. I figured it would just keep going, even in a small game like this.

      @@WarGamingNewbHistorical All good and wasn't any detriment to me from the game, we throw so many houserules in when we play that the actual rules really are just a guide in a number of areas. That with the fanatics counting any loss in combat which would destroy the unit as a draw so keep on fighting is one of the main reasons that the extra cost per man is vaguely worth it so is a good thing to have running especially in smaller games where +3 points per man that it costs really adds up! (I know it far too well as i only have been playing multiplayer 500 points per player games)

    I noticed you asked about weapons on the Kuebelwagen.
    If taken as a transport it has no armament
    If taken in the armored car slot it has an mmg and no transport capibilites.

      at least htat's how Easy Army does it from armies of Germany.
      The data lets call it square
      Wepons none
      Options May hace a Pintel Mounted MMG with a 360-degree arc for +15 points losing all transport capacity.

    For rally
    You still have to pass an unmodified command check😉
    Ignore the pins and roll on their leadership
    If passed
    Remove 1d6 +1 pins
