    I enjoyed your channel, your video are interesting and very informative. I prefer shorter video in the 30-40 mins range. However I have watch longer video on other channels if the game is interesting to me. Keep it up and good luck for 2025.

      I did. Lawrence did me in (and Maude was close); it was a close-run game.

  • @johnnymustang760

    20 second intro isn't too long to me. I watch both unboxing and play through. I find I don't watch many hour plus videos unless it is a game that I really, really like.

      That's exactly why I try not to go much over 30 minutes if possible. Not always possible, but I know it's a lot to ask someone to watch a gameplay video that's an hour or more.

    I have been watching your channel now for well o er a year and have always enjoyed your content. I like what your are thinking about and I have only one comment or suggestion: I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SEE YOU AND AN OPPONENT PLAY A SMALL scenario or game or you make comments about a game as it either unfolds live OR an edited version later. This way one would see how a game is actually played between opponents. I know you play mostly solitaire, but I think most would enjoy this mode of learning game,

    • @HexedAndCountered
      @HexedAndCountered День назад

      I appreciate the suggestion and it's definitely something I've considered. My only real opponent at the moment would be my son and he's away at college. So maybe this summer...

  • @half-assedgaming6193
    @half-assedgaming6193 День назад

    29:50...I don't believe the 12VG arty can move since it fired earlier in the turn, which sucks because it blocks every unit behind it.

    Thanks for this, Joe. This looks like a great game and I think I’ll be getting it as soon as I can. I love your new opening title sequence! Did you do it yourself? To go with your new opening video I think you also need a new series name to start the new year off right. I took the liberty of coming up with a suggestion you might like. The new name is: Hex Encountered! What do you think?

    • @HexedAndCountered
      @HexedAndCountered 2 дня назад

      Glad you enjoyed the video - I did make the new intro. And the funny thing is that just the other day I was thinking I should have named the channel itself Hex Encountered! Great minds think alike. I am working on a "plans for 2025" video that might include a new series or two and that might make it in, if I can figure out a good theme for it. Thanks!

  • @johnskibajr5691
    @johnskibajr5691 4 дня назад

    These look interesting but the price point for a one mapper and 440 counter count is too high. I see Vol 3 is 80 dollars but the first two and 100 dollars each and I believe they have the same components as far as the map and counters go. If they had gotten this to the 50 dollar range I would be all in but.... By comparison, Atlantic Wall costs 240 but has seven maps and ten times the counters.

    • @HexedAndCountered
      @HexedAndCountered 4 дня назад

      I hear you. I bought this one on pre-order so it was a little less. The map's mounted and double-sided so that adds cost I'm sure.

    My grandmother grew up and lived in Arnswalde in Pomerania till February 1945. Then she fled as oldest of 5 girls with two of her sisters to Dortmund, ruhr area, where the family of her husband, my grandfather , which fought in the Wehrmacht at this time on the east front, lived. One year later her mother moved with the other two daughters to Dortmund, too. Her father was killed as civilian during the fights around Arnswalde. In 1991 my mother traveled with my grandmother as present for her 70. birthday for the first and last time to her old "Heimat". So this game is a personal must buy.

    Thanks for the video. I was at my FLGS today and they had this game on the New Arrivals shelf. I hadn’t heard of it before.

  • @stampdealer

    Hi Joe, I'm just getting into wargaming, and I have cats and not a lot of space to leave games set up, so I'm thinking magazine games might be a good fit for me. Plus, my main historical interest is WW2, so I'd probably have lots of options. I enjoy your channel and I appreciate you doing these magazine game videos. If you have any particular favorite magazines and/or issues, I'd love to know what they are. Thanks, Joe! -Greg

    • @HexedAndCountered
      @HexedAndCountered 6 дней назад

      Hi Greg - thanks for watching! There are a lot of great magazine games out there. My personal favorite in WW2 is probably C3i issue #34 which features Trevor Bender's Battle of Kursk. Good system, not overly complex and not too many counters. Plus it has top-notch quality components and a bunch of great articles too. Here's a link: c3iopscenter.com/rbm-studio-store/C3i-Magazine-Nr-34-p266463296 Since you're just getting into wargaming and you have cats, I would also recommend looking into Decision Games' mini and maybe folio series. They're inexpensive, easy to learn, have a small footprint and in the case of the minis can easily be played in an hour or two (the folios are bigger a little more involved). They cover WW2 and a whole lot more. Here's a link for the Mini series: shop.decisiongames.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=84 Welcome to the world of wargaming! I hope you find it as compelling & enjoyable as I do!

    Too bad 4 hex vision means nothing. Russians know there are aircraft on thr field without seeing them..?

    • @HexedAndCountered
      @HexedAndCountered 7 дней назад

      They likely did know. This is based on a historical situation and to assume the Soviets - who had air superiority by this time - did not know the location of operational German airfields would seem wrong to me.

  • @user-ne1vx7mj1b
    @user-ne1vx7mj1b 7 дней назад

    Again this stop just out of range is NOT Soviet Doctrine and nit picky game play..NOT LIKING this system so far.

    • @HexedAndCountered
      @HexedAndCountered 7 дней назад

      I'm playing it as a competitive player would. The tanks can't fire with riders anyway, and have better range than the infantry. To me it makes sense to dismount in a safe area and assault from there when both the infantry and the armor can fire. If you watched the whole video you will see that I did in fact assault those buildings.

  • @user-ne1vx7mj1b
    @user-ne1vx7mj1b 7 дней назад

    Disappointed you did not comment on my observations part 1. Part 2 probably as well

    • @HexedAndCountered
      @HexedAndCountered 7 дней назад

      I'm not sure what I'm supposed to say in response. I didn't design the game, I just play it so people can see it and make their own decisions. You've obviously done that. I'm not going to try to refute what you say. As I said - I didn't design the game and I play within the rules as written by the designer. I think it is a good system; you don't. I say we agree to disagree. But I'll play along and reply to your points though I stress I am not interested in an argument. I will just say what I think the design was trying to do, or my thoughts for doing it a certain way. Doesn't mean I'm right, just how I see it.

  • @user-ne1vx7mj1b
    @user-ne1vx7mj1b 7 дней назад

    The 20mm in this scenario counter shows an anti aircraft quad 20mm deadly to infantry but not AT gun

    • @HexedAndCountered
      @HexedAndCountered 7 дней назад

      Fair enough. It also gets 1 shot per turn. I would prefer to have it take a higher percentage shot than firing mostly blind at the edge of visibility range using engine noise as a gauge which would certainly drown out any noise the infantry might be making.

  • @thomasharkless4605
    @thomasharkless4605 8 дней назад

    • @HexedAndCountered
      @HexedAndCountered 7 дней назад

      The solo mode is very good. The only possible issue with it is that there aren't more scenarios for it. I would recommend the other games in the system: '65 and Night of Man.

  • @user-ne1vx7mj1b

    Somethings wrong, game unrealistic and broken, there would be continusl fire with a 20mm that would rip to shreds thevinfantry and possible damage or kill tank crews or tanks that they could see..easy meat sacks

    • @HexedAndCountered
      @HexedAndCountered 7 дней назад

      Possibly, if they could see them. Even though visibility goes out four hexes, there's a penalty for firing at night. They'd also likely run out of ammunition spraying fire all over the place. This was 1945, the Wehrmacht was down to bare bones by then.

  • @user-ne1vx7mj1b
    @user-ne1vx7mj1b 11 дней назад

    Why arent thre germans firing at infantry before or as they dismount?

    • @HexedAndCountered
      @HexedAndCountered 7 дней назад

      Infantry wouldn't hit them (10% chance) and the 20mm has one shot per turn (and would also likely have a low chance at four hex range).

    • @HexedAndCountered
      @HexedAndCountered 7 дней назад

      They do attack, in part two, and make good headway.

    • @HexedAndCountered
      @HexedAndCountered 7 дней назад

      It is. Range of the infantry's weapons is effectively two hexes.

    Note that the third edition contains some egregious misprints that affect gameplay and point to pretty shoddy QA. : ( I ended up getting a refund because of the multiple QA issues, but if you're going to play this edition, I believe the publisher offers correction stickers. It didn't look like they were included in your copy (or maybe I just missed where you showed them), but if you didn't get the correction stickers for the errors, be sure to contact the publisher!

    • @HexedAndCountered
