There are a couple of mistakes I've found. The 1st is that in the very first attack, I failed to take into account O'Neil's inherent HtH bonus. However, this is not really important, as I would have just made the dice roll a 5 instead of a 6. Also, there's another instance where you can see my die roll, but then I change it before I show it to the camera. Keep in mind this was a "learning" example, and I probably shouldn't have rolled any dice at all, seeing as how I was selecting the die results to match what I needed for the situation.
At some point the soldier engaged in HtH combat had to spend an action to eliminate a supression token and continue fighting. It would make sense that , once engaged in HtH, performing an action other than HtH attacks forced the soldier to pay engagement cost again in order to resume HtH combat. Wouldn’t it?
Quick question: When the hostil atack to you in a hth combat, he atacks with his regular guns value? I unsderstood that is a normal atack for him, there`s not especials values for the hostil in a hth like us righ? Thanks for the explanation dude!
According to the rules, the hostile may even be attaking another soldier, as the one performing HTH may not be that originally assigned to the hostile.
In the example, soldier 1 hth attacks the hostile with de 1# token, but that is just a misleading coincidence in the example. Soldier 1 could be performing HtH attack on a hostile who, in turn, had soldier 2 assigned for its attacks
A better explanation than the rulebook. I like the mechanics of HtH, but there is just not enough incentive to engage in HtH.
Great presentation, shows me how! As a last resort I’ll partake in Hand 2 Hand!! I like to keep a spare grenade in times like this 💥
Great detailed video
Thanks
Excellentes explications. Bravo !
Well explained, thank you.
I think that with two soldiers attacking in hth one Hostile you would have a sort of bonus...

Very useful, thanks

Around 15:00, did Cook played extra actions? 1-remove supp, 2- first hth, 3- second hth…
Anyway, very clear tutorial of hth combat, thanks a lot
Yeah, A few meaningless mistakes, but you accomplished your mission. I understand it better now. Thanks!

@@jesusperez-os8nd my understanding is that the hostile changes target to defend against a hth attack.
@@shaneintheuk2026 where in the rules do you find that?
@@jesusperez-os8nd I was wrong. If the hostile is about to move it changes target.
Hostiles completely disregarding the HtH attack when it is their turn to attack, is a mechanic that is not very realistic
