In the real battle the cav did hardly did anything.
They used to fight dismounted a lot as well. Maybe more Confederate guns may have been the better option for this game! Thanks for the comment and support 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanlks for posting this. I like your Epic ACW battle reports.
Cheers, much appreciated and thanks for the support 👍🏻👍🏻
Sweet been missing your ACW Videos
Cheers, much appreciated 👍 a few more planned for 2025 as well 😎
Superb figures. I think new dice are required.
Thanks for the comment and support, much appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻
Enjoyed your game--and really liked your paint job on the miniatures (wish I could paint like that!). Some comments on the rules: (1) someone asked about 6s causing disorders--that is for missile fire (causes a break test, not a disorder in HC), not melee. (2) normally we test to see if our leaders have fallen during combat because that adds an extra loss if they have. (3) this is just our take so treat it accordingly--we tend to keep a little space between units in support to more clearly identify them as separate units (yes, I know the rules say they should be touching, but we like the aesthetics better with a quarter or half inch alley--and it made no difference in the play of the game). (4) we don't count skirmishers or small units as a "unit" for the divisional/army breaking, so in your scenario, 2 (battleline) units would trigger withdrawals by that side [Honestly, except for skirmishers, we don't use small units as they tend to be too brittle]. Again, nice camera shots and a terrific report--hope you do more!
Thanks for the feedback and support, much appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻 I like that the rules are flexible enough that you can tweak them to your liking 😎 there are a couple of other HC battle reports on the channel, so just search through my videos 👍🏻
Great battle report. What are the houses you use please?
Thanks again Nick, I’ve left a response on your other post 😎👍🏻👍🏻
Enjoying watching your battle reports. What buildings do you use, my kad and i are new to Bolt Action, your cuverage has been a big help. Liked and subbed
Cheers much appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻 the buildings are from Sarissa Precision from their world wars Europe collection 👍🏻
Give ‘em hell Billy Yank!
👍🏻👍🏻
Nice. How much have you got painted?
Hey there, I’ve managed to get about 2,500 points worth of both Germans and Americans done, so plenty of options for both sides 👍🏻
@Roll-Some-Dice haha. I commented on the ACW. 🤣🤣🤣
@@Dream-qc5je 😂
Let's gooo. I just busted mine back out here recently. Still need to paint mine, I want to do specific regiments too because we are planning on doing campaigns where we have to use points to muster forces!
Nice 👍🏻👍🏻 it’s a lot of painting dude 👌great when their on the table top though
Great battle report - what winter battlemat are you using?
Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻 the mat is the Frozen Track from Geek Villain 😎👍🏻
Why would you assault tough fighter veterans in a defensive position with regulars??
Well…let’s call it the fog of war 😂 anyway the US won! So the commander must have got a few things right 🤔😎
@ always good when the Americans win lol
Another incredible looking game! I look forward to watching this in detail tomorrow. That Tiger looks great, very imposing tank.
Thanks Denis, much appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻 yea the Tiger looks great on the table top. Time for some Shermans on the next battle report! 😎
Great battle report as always. Big fan of bolt action and just waiting for my German army book to arrive to get stuck in to V3. Quick question don't German tanks cause tiger fear or has that been removed? If you took that into account then forgive me.
Cheers and thanks for the feedback, much appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 I’m just using the basic profiles from the new 3rd edition rule book at the moment , so nothing about tiger fear mentioned there, but I’d expect something in the German army book. Looking forward to when it arrives 😎
@@Roll-Some-Dice Didn't Tiger Fear get replaced with a new "Panzer Ace" rule, I could be wrong, I listened to a Podcast earlier in the week and they mentioned it. I can name the Podcast if you like, I just didn't want to name-drop another channel.
You forgot to give the Stug a cover save. Vehicles do get cover saves in v3. Where did you get the buildings? Your figures look great!
Hey and thanks for the feedback and appreciate the comments on my figures 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻- In terms of the Stug, I could see more than 50% so didn’t give it a save on that basis, but the Tiger gets one later! Buildings are from Sarrisa Precision - they do a nice MDF range that are reasonably priced. Thanks again for the support 👍🏻
Reallynice. Epic scale stuff makes sense in termsof space, weight etc but nothing beats 28mmfor visual impact.
Cheers, yes 28mm does look great especially for Napoleonics - appreciate the feedback and support 👍🏻👍🏻
Should have moved the greyhound into the side of the panther at point blank instead of running across the fence A side shot would have been plus 6 into a 9 armor
Thanks for the sound advice 👍🏻 knowing my luck I’d have rolled a 1 for the hit roll anyway 😂 cheers for the feedback and support 👍🏻👍🏻
@ bravo for doing a solo video they are tough im still trying to get the hang of it. I like hours away from any other players
@@Boltaction1944 thanks dude - yea I’ve been doing them for a couple of years now and they seem to come across ok. I see them as more of a narrative play through. My nearest club is a fair drive away, so it helps keep my gaming fix going!
Great video Chris congratulations on a great year for the channel. Merry Christmas to you and family, Jingle Bells from down under. Cheers 🎄🎅🍺
Thanks Paul, merry Xmas to you to. Thanks for the support as always 👍🏻👍🏻
A unit only takes a moral check when it looses half the unit from a round of fire from one unit. You removed a unit because it failed its moral due to it loosing half the squad but it received the casualties from numerous firing from numerous teams. Check the rule again.
Cheers Greg 👍🏻 thanks for the support
Remember when a vichicle gets pins the carried units also accumulate the same amount of pins. So your waffen should have had 3 pins upon disembarking
Cheers Greg 👍🏻
Great models, board, painting, etc. This is very, very useful for newbies like me who are learning to play the game. Your narration during the game is very helpful.
Cheers, glad it was helpful 👍🏻👍🏻 appreciate the feedback and support 👍🏻
Great looking models and board. A very enjoyable video! Thank you.
Thanks Denis appreciate the feedback and support 👍🏻👍🏻
thank you
Cheers much appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻
I'll watch the whole game play through. But I've a feeling that those inexperienced US troops will not hold up too well...
No spoilers then! 😂 the scenario is supposed to be weighted towards the German side to mirror actual events, but you never know in a dice game! Thanks for the comment and support 👍🏻👍🏻
Great video. Greetings from Omaha Wargames. History in Miniature.
Thanks, much appreciated and greetings to you 😎😎👍🏻
Very good review and some great advice.
Thanks Philip, much appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻
Good game, great terrain. Where did you get the shaken tokens please?
Cheers dude, much appreciated 👍👍 the tokens are from rampage-games.com/ albeit they were bespoke for me - just message Oz about them as he has the templates for reproducing
Another great game. Where did you get the mat from?
Thanks Paul 👍🏻 it’s the Badlands mat from UrbanMatz - pretty versatile 👍🏻
I dont have the rules yet but I have played Hail Caesar and I was wondering when it comes to movement is there a proximity rule like in hail caesar or can a unit kind of freely move when within 12 inches? I know there is a modifier on the order roll but other than that
Hi there, yes there is a proximity rule on the same principles as Hail Caesar but slightly different - if you play Hail Caesar, then you’ll find Black Powder very similar in many respects - HC is more combat focused and BP more shooting focussed.
@ awesome. Thank you
This is awesome, I agree with your analysis of the room taken up on the board and man does it make those boxes of soldiers make a much larger army. You do kinda have to invest in more command strips which are outrageously priced if you want to make it look right but thats minor. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for the feedback it’s much appreciated 👍 I bought some command strips when Warlord have sales, which seem to be quite regular!
So glad you did this series thank you so much. I will be ordering a starter set as soon as I get done watching these.
Great, glad it was helpful cheers 👍👍
Those are some lovely armies.
Cheers, much appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻
Nice game Chris! Many Thanks 😊👍
Thanks as always Paul 👍🏻👍🏻
Nice report.... But not very fun to play southernside on this scénario...just hope make lot 4+...
Thanks for the feedback 👍🏻
Nice job... But southern soldier have not chance to win this battle, outnumbred, yankee have cover and "bunker" farm, higher and défensive ground.
Thanks for the feedback 👍🏻
I’ve used the same cardboard casualty markers, but I’ve stuck mine to 40x20 bases, so hopefully they’ll last a bit longer! Great battle report!
Great idea! Thanks for the tip and feedback 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much!
You’re welcome 😎👍🏻👍🏻
Great breakdown. Very thoughtful and might just go ahead and use this as well. Thanks!
Great, thanks for the feedback, it’s much appreciated 👍🏻 glad it was of some use for you cheers 👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent work
Thanks very much 👍🏻👍🏻 appreciated
And yes im a southerner, Louisiana born and proud. Also was in the 1st louisiana ACW reinactors for almost 20 years
Nice 👍🏻
I don't think I've seen the confederates win a single battle report ever. And it always seems that there is a camera glitch when the union needs a good roll 😂
Haha…well I definitely have no skin in the game as I’m British 😂 also the Union did win the battle, so I guess historically accurate! I may need to nudge the odds in favour of the South for the next one then 😎
Don't cheat yourself lol. The games are quite enjoyable to watch either way and I have 7 of the Gettysburg starter sets and play quite alot so I'm having fun either way
@@mikejarreau2340 👍🏻👍🏻
Sorry Renedra is the correct spelling.
Thanks 👍🏻
Hi Chris, loved your first Saxon v Viking battle report. Also your Sarissa terrain preliminary video. I recently bought and have painted the Rendra ‘Stone outbuilding’. I was very pleased with it. I think you might like it too. Keep up your great work.
Great stuff 👍🏻 I’ve not checked out rendra for scenery, so will have a look 👍🏻 cheers for the support
good game, looking forward to following the campaign.
Cheers, thanks for commenting, much appreciated 👍🏻
Great game. Look forward to next one.
Thanks James, appreciate the support 👍🏻👍🏻
@@Roll-Some-Dice Made me move my Normans and Vikings up the to-do list for Hail Caesar!
Loved it
👍🏻
Well done Chris. A great battle video and I have never seen anyone else gaming Vikings v Saxons in this game system on UTube before. I loved watching your preparatory videos and seeing the Sarista stuff in play. Lovely stuff many thanks.
Great, thanks for the feedback Philip, much appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻 second game on the way soon 😎
Nice report! Don't 6s cause disorder in melee in Hail Caesar? Or did I miss it lol😅
Thanks for the feedback Greg, much appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻 A roll of a 6 in melee is always a hit but doesn’t cause disorder. Your unit might become disordered if they lose combat and fail their break test etc. hope that helps 👍🏻👍🏻
Yet another great video thanks - keep them coming! Hope you don't mind me asking but one question on the rules - at 17:13 should there be a further -1 modify to the break test for taking artillery casualties or have I misunderstood this (which is quite probable!). Thanks
Thanks again for the comment and feedback Nicholas, much appreciated 👍🏻 yep, looks like I missed that one…heat of battle etc! 👍🏻
Thanks for confirming - very easy to do (I don’t think I have ever managed a game without missing half a dozen items). As I said, great videos - look, format and commentary are some of the best out there.
We played some games when it first came out and enjoyed them. putting the ships together and painting them was a different matter! We need to get some games in again.
Yea, it’s a great game, but agree that the ships are fiddly! I have to be in the mood as it’s the sales and rigging that can drive me nuts!! Thanks for feedback much appreciated 👍🏻👍🏻
