Nice to see more battle reports. Keep them coming! We have been playing a Tank Wars Campaign at my local club. getting several games in each week and having a blast. A few rule corrections for next time, I saw these were already mentioned: In rolling PEN. a 1 always fails to penetrate. The US commander should have been fine the first 2 hits. A single Pin each time.. A tank can only rotate once up to 90 Degree in a turn. It looks like the front Sherman and the advancing Panther in turn 5 took a little extra maneuvering ;) Tanks usually ignore shrubs for cover.. unless it truly blocks more than 50% of LoS. (bocage is a whole different animal with special rules) Tiger Fear is ignored if you are attacking a Tiger Fear generating tank or have Tank Hunters ability.. Don't worry, I am king of getting rules wrong all the time myself. I always appreciate it when I am corrected.
Thanks for the report, always good to have more Bolt Action reports. A couple of things. BA works on true line of sight and for hidden they need to be fully in cover or unable to be seen by any enemy units. I don't know what you had decided on the hedges but they weren't covering 50% or more to claim cover. With Tiger fear, if you are shooting at the tiger fear causing vehicle you don't need to test, other enemy tiger fear vehicles on the table don't effect you in that scenario. Also Tiger fear does not stack for each one you have on the table. Once again thanks for the video, keep em coming.
The Eccentric Man thanks for info still learning as i go. I thought tiger fear means you have a -1 on test to activate if the vechile is in line of sight
Thanks very much for doing this video, very entertaining. I've never actually read it anywhere but was under the impression that vehicles cannot Go Down?
Red John yes if they go down they cant be used there is no -2 penalty to hit them. So if they take damage on the chart ie stunned pin and your dice comes out the bag! Thanks for watching

Norman Smith thanks for watching
Good stuff
Don’t forget
When Tanks fail their order test they retreat one full move
Steve Gusky i forget that everytime. Thanks for watching
14:23 He's going to shoot with a friendly directly in his line of fire?
No he didn't missed the shot
But even if he missed it's not considered as friendly fire unless
U intensionally fired or in FUBAR
Thanks for the upload
