    Played tank hunter at the weekend. Good call. Added bonus jfl we had a herd of cows wandering around, d6 scatter 1st action for round, blocking line of sight, advances etc. Stay safe.

      Always fun to add some of those random features to a game to mix up the gameplay a little bit.

    Very refreshing to see a game again! Forgot what it looked like! I think the best part was the cows getting activations. And then James being so cut throat he had to run one over... hilarious

    Finally! Back to videos where we don't have to stare at your faces... phew! j/k ;) Great game, and nice to see you back at the table in person. Loved the narrative setup to this one, and the rule overlays. Thanks for taking the time to film and share.

    • @ModellingforAdvantage
      @ModellingforAdvantage  3 роки тому +3

      Lot of fun to be had even with a small army on a little board if you put a little bit of planning into the game in advance I think. Although less faces, there is a risk of more bellyshots... or worse still, the infamous wargamers crotch!

      For such a basic change it really mixes up the turn and adds a dimension to it.

    Yay, you're back rolling dice! Fun game, I really enjoy the Bolt Action rules - it's really handy having a refresher as I'm hoping to get a game in soon, and after 15 months I'm a bit rusty! No pins for close assault, you only get supression for ranged weapons as far as I remember. You missed a trick not getting the cows to close assault the tank though.

  • @hamsteronthepaintingtable6465
    @hamsteronthepaintingtable6465 3 роки тому +2

    Nice play through, As far as I read in the rules you only get pins from being fired at , not in hand to hand so no pin markers applied. Technically a form of suppression.

      Hello sir, thanks for watching!
      The trees are actually cheap ones from China with a bit of a spruce up....
      This included snipping some branches away in an irregular fashion.... But not on all of them, a spray of any dark brown you can get your mitts on.....
      Then applying undiluted pva to the foliage sections and sprinkling/rolling them in a tub of fine javis scenics flocks, mainly the light tone but a few in the mid and dark tones too.

    Heer here, heer there, lol. Watching now and will edit this comment as I go. Could be wrong but I think Bazooka is shaped charge so no -1 for long range. Your tips are excellent by the way. I really enjoy the pop-outs on the left. Well done gents! Where are those trees from :D

      The shaped charge ignores -1 on the penetration roll I believe, rather than the hit roll.
