    Hi, I have to say not only your tables are the best looking and realistic, but the way you explain the battle reports is second to none and your channel and content you produce is top quality. Very much appreciated again!

    It's hard to argue with the success the Hetzer had, but I kept hoping it would take a shot at the KV-2. I would have dismounted the SS squad sooner, and tried to get a shot at the KV with both panzerfausts. Ryan's beginner's luck with the dice almost won the game for him. All in All a good bloody game!

    Top notch as always. If Ryan is going to play Soviets he needs to remember they get to roll failed morale tests one more. Their national rule "Not One Step Back"

    • @tabletopcp
      @tabletopcp  Рік тому

      Yes. It’s an easily forgotten rule. But you are right the Soviet player should be responsible for remembering that. Most people say I forgot but I can’t remember every rules for both armies while doing all the other stuff.

    Corker of a game. That Hetzer and a sniper that not only hit but actually took stuff out! Hottest sniper I've seen in any Bat Rep. That KV2 is such a monster. Point, click, delete. Looking forward to the next one.

    I always skip over Bolt Action in personal play but at a recent convention there was a 6-man BA game going on and there's just something to revealing those dice pulls out of the bag and the snappy gameplay that's a crowd pleaser. Yeah ok the CoC guys I'm sure were having a more ~tactically engaging~ experience but there was more cheering and fun from the big dumb Bolt Action table.

    You know what would make an amazing scenario? Operation Cowboy.
    An American mechanized force, a bunch of liberated Allied POWs, a Cossack cavalry unit that had defected from the German army, and many hastily rearmed German POWs fight off repeated attacks by the SS to save the Lipizzaner breeding mares from the Red Army.
    It's the kind of crazy war story that would have Donald Sutherland and Telly Savalas in supporting roles.

    • @tabletopcp
      @tabletopcp  6 днів тому

      They are shooting over them. We have a rule that says as long as the target is farther from the tank than the unit the tank is firing over the tank can fire. So if the unit being fired over is closer to the target than the tank the tank cannot fire.

  • @aaronsomerville2124
    @aaronsomerville2124 Рік тому

    Really fun battle report. Great models, great table, great running commentary and camera work. My *only* complaint is that it's absurd that the KV-2 is anything but an utter dog in the game... certainly every KV-2 was a pile of rusty scrap by the time the panzerfaust was invented, let alone the Hetzer. That's not your fault of course! It's Warlord's fault for letting such a farcically bad weapon system be effective in the game (its off-road speed was slower than a babushka's walking pace and it destroyed its own turret ring just by firing the main gun).

      It’s the same as shooting at another tank. Pen value of the gun vs. soft skin armor value of six. So generally pretty easy to do damage to them.
