Please, don't abandon this series! It's how I'm convincing my board game friends to get into crunchier wargames!

[@12crit]

I promise I'm not abandoning it! Trying my best to make as good a Weapon Attack Phase video as I can. No promises, but I'm shooting for the end of the month!

No problem! Thank you for enjoying! It's taking a while because of the detail, but I'm working on the videos for the Combat Phases.
