  • We played a game of Bolt Action, the table top World War 2 miniature wargame. We took the whole 2 hour battle and cut it down into this action packed battle report. This bloodbath of a battle saw Lewis playing as the Germans and Pyrion, soldiers armed with cups of tea, playing as the British.

    really love these battle reports, the little SFX are really fun. Just starting bolt action myself and it's getting me quite hyped.

    Lewis committed to the German accent the whole 2 hours, much respect

    • @MrDannyWright

      Lewis will seize any opportunity to brutalise everyone with his horrendous accents, the man loves it.

    • @Lordborgman
      @Lordborgman 2 роки тому +20

      That HoI series long ago was great with them doing accents.

    • @donm6578

      To be fair Lewis did several episodes of Farming Simulator doing a "farmer" voice. He has much practice in his vocal endurance lol. Always a great time

      I can't believe pyrion stuck to his british persona the entire game too! it was a bit exaggerated at the beginning but it was so realistic it was like a actual englishman was before us

    Ben: "The winner can make a regroup move; roll D6 and move that many inches."
    Lewis: *gasp* "We can get in a building!"
    Ben: *continues reading rules* "You can not enter a building."
    Lewis: "aaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!"

    Games night has to be my absolute favourite channel going. Love the attention to detail and condensed format of the edits, but also happy with some of the longer vids from back in the day. Honestly love the fact the yogs put these together for us even when theres very little monetary incentive to do so

    • @the_enderslayer
      @the_enderslayer 2 роки тому +4

      Games Night's been a favorite for me for a long time. Glad to see it going strong again. These newest vids are so well-made.

      @charlieholdsworth6086 2 роки тому +6

      I think for them its a bonus. They get to play games they love and get some quality content out of it.
      Also since the models are part of their job... Tax deductible?

    • @oscaranderson5719
      @oscaranderson5719 2 роки тому +1

      I’m real happy they made it into a condensed format, is action-packed that way

    The editing on this was spectacular!

  • @Grashan
    @Grashan 2 роки тому +83

    It wasn't the Soviets who called the Pak 36 the "door-knocker"- it was the Germans, because of the weapon's ineffectiveness against heavy tanks [Char B1, Matilda II, KV-1]; it was effective against most tanks of the period 1939-1941.
    Fun contrast: the USA also had a door knocker- {edit- no idea what happened; part of the reply fell away}, anyway the US door knocker was the 155 mm Gun Motor Carriage M12, so called because when it fired directly at the front of a bunker the back door was knocked down.
    A minor comment, made more for the algorithm than anything else.

  • @Mattzere
    @Mattzere 2 роки тому +113

    The format of mixing live recordings with post commentary really helps me (a noob) follow what's going on. Lovely touch with the little animations too. More, please!

  • @LW94V2

    I Love how they cut to Joe with a camera on the snake eyes, instead of the snake eyes shot he got 😂

  • @TheWackoRicki

    Yes!! More Bolt Action! It was you guys that sparked my interest in it with your last video :D

  • @gluedtothemouse

    I like to imagine the SAS commander didn't just leave, but was instead wounded and the third squad was a rescue mission to get both him and the briefcase out of there

  • @RoninAndreas

    I said it befire and I'll say it again, I do love these cut down battle reports! Great work painting your lads P.Flax

  • @totallycarbon2106
    @totallycarbon2106 2 роки тому +2

    I think this is *the* best format of battle report videos for all audiences out there.
    40k In 40 Minutes from play on tabletop tries to do something similar but with nowhere near the same level of finesse - it's the post game narration edited into the gameplay that really makes it work.
    Would *love* to see more of these for any wargame really.

  • @dougpowers
    @dougpowers 2 роки тому +25

    God, I love y'all's Bolt Action stuff. Scratches a wargaming itch that I didn't even realize I had. And the condensed format makes for addictive viewing.
    More? Please?

  • @shooty22
    @shooty22 2 роки тому +20

    The editing on these is elite. I feel like I have to comment on it every time I watch one of these it's so dang good

  • @MrBarlien
    @MrBarlien 2 роки тому +32

    These 20 min roundups are great! But I wish there was more stuff regularly on this channel. More Tom 'Tomfoolery' Clark game mastering, salty sessions of secret cylon, and barely comprehensible digital board games that Duncan is to baked to understand! Come on guys, I know you want to!

    • @RoosterFloyd
      @RoosterFloyd 2 роки тому +2

      What we need is another call of Cthulhu campaign or the like. Tom is such a succinct yet descriptive story teller as well as just a understanding and chill DM. Not to mention I'd love to see more of Ben role playing after his debut as the loveable and wholesome Hollywood director.
      The Christmas special was great but just a little too loose on the rules and lacking in concept in my opinion, still very enjoyable though.

  • @joejoeington6899

  • @nasdaquez
    @nasdaquez 2 роки тому +11

    Not sure when this was recorded, in relation to Joes moving to content creation.
    But the editing was once again top notch. Making board games feel more alive for mere spectators ain't easy feat. Of course the battleboys have their chemistry that works so nicely in these kind of projects especially.

  • @JupiterTheWizard
    @JupiterTheWizard 2 роки тому +8

    Loved the story you guys made and the use of editing and little visual effects really helped show what was happening (who was shooting who, etc). I would recommend using the different lighting at the end of turn evaluations but other than that I thought the video was really entertaining.

  • @teh_sid

  • @ivaeradon4570
    @ivaeradon4570 2 роки тому +2

    I LOVE these- everything about them, from getting to enjoy action and commentary from EVERY stage of the game in condense form, to the excellent fucking camera work and effects, to simply being able to enjoy a game I can't play on my own because my friend group doesn't like it. MORE PLEASE.

    @misomiso8228 2 роки тому +2

    Yeay! my Favourite Yogs content!
    I really think to give these as much reach as possible each BR should be try and be something special...like for example if you do this again you set it during the Battle of the Bugle? On an important Bridge? Or maybe on a beach in Normandy on D-Day itself?!
    Other Battle ideas are...
    1) 600 point Star Wars Armada 'Battle of Endor' recreation. With a SSD of course...
    2) Horus Heresy Thousand Sons v the Space Wolves on the cursed soils of Prospero...
    3) New Necromunda Ash wastes battle (Possibly Sponsored by the great GW...?!)
    4) Konflct '47 Mecha WW2 match (Because who doesn't like Mecha)
    5) A Middle Earth Strategy Battle Game match! Rohan v Isenguard of course...
    And possible a 'One Page Rules' game. It's the new hotness.
    Best guys.

    Firing through vision slits a myth mostly, they had bulletproof glass (with fast replaceable glass panels from the inside in case they crack) and armored covers. Actual holes to fire through were pistol/firing ports and were closable from inside.

    • @oscaranderson5719
      @oscaranderson5719 2 роки тому +1

      of course tanks weren’t tea-proofed until later, after the results of the Spanish Civil War and the Winter War which coined the iconic weapon “Moltov’s Teabag”

    I was just thinking the editing was top-notch and reminded me of Joe's style, but I wasn't sure if he was still editing for the team. Then he popped up on screen to take some photos! I guess this must've been from a while ago and they had it lined up to go.
    Fun vid! Makes me want to pick up some Bolt Action lads.
