Let's Play Bolt Action: Soviets vs Americans

Justin and Gerry decide to settle their dispute over who the best Bake Off presenters are with a game of Bolt Action from Warlord Games.
Gerry defends the honour of Sandi and Noel through the Soviet forces whilst Justin represents the glory of Mel and Sue with the American army. The objective for each player is to reach their opponent's command centre at the other side of the board and blow it up. The question is who can manoeuvre their force to the other side without getting pinned down?
What unit on the board do you think would make the best cake?

8:20 the Americans don't suffer the -1 to hit penalty for moving because of the fire and maneuver special rule
They might need to brush up on the rules the next time they play though.
You need to be playing a rule set at least twice a month to be completely familiar with it. I enjoyed the video anyway.
Need more Bolt Action Battle Reps!!..
Make it Warlord Wensday..
Seconded.
I third the motion
I dont mean to be so off topic but does any of you know of a tool to get back into an instagram account??
I was stupid lost the password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Sincere Archer instablaster :)
@Anakin Axl Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
"Nobody gets out of this life alive, don't waste your time exercising" I love it lol
One suggestion for you when you film games. Try doing a worm's eye view of the board to get us a idea of seeing what you're seeing when you get low. Doesn't Warren have cam for that?
Huzzah for Bolt Action content! Great video!
Amazing battle report and table.
Great to see a game of Bolt Action.
Favorite game! Love Bolt Action
finally some BA content :)
Bolt Action - Yes!
Brilliant game as always
The random turn mechanic by drawing dice out of a bag is insane lol. I kind of like that mechanic...does flames of war use a similar mechanic?
No, Flames of war has the I do my stuff then you do your stuff. More of a standard affair really
Are infantry Tank Assaults 1 & done? Couldn't the Soviets of had 2 more attempts to take down the Sherman with some lucky dice draws from the bag on the next turn after the one you ended on? Or am I forgetting a specific detail of the mission?
Please do some more bolt action and konflikt 47 battle reports 🙏
At 1:06:10 why did the mortar get a +2 to kill? (2 and up) should it not have been the standard value for regular troops? (4 and up)
Loving the Bolt Action battle reports, more please... and Chain of Command!
About to play our first game this coming weekend so very novice on the rules but why were no morale checks performed when the sniper and other small teams lost 50%?, I thought once you reached half a morale check had to be made to stay on the table or is that wrong? I notice the kenny rogers looking guy didnt do any for his groups?
Bit late of a reaction and you've probably figured it out yourselves by now, but they are classified as team based weapons, meaning that if 1 of then dies, they all die
Dude this guys got that rule book thoroughly tabbed and marked up. We’re watching a professional beast
I thought you had to leaving destroyed vehicles on the table?
Why did the Sherman MMG only fire 4 dice per MMG and the T 34 5 dice per MMG ?.
Both should have been 5 dice.
YES!!!! MORE BOLT ACTION!!!!
Please someone can explain what is this Bolt Action?
"like thats gunna happen" ahem, in syria theres a clip of some faction or another sneaking up on a T72 and lobbing a grenade down the barrel after it fired resulting in it touching off the magazine
Im an ex tanky, that sounds very dubious. To start there is a flash extractor half way down the barrel on a T72 and secondly the magazine is not directly connected to the barrel to prevent anything rolling out of the barrel into it. And lastly, have you ever tried throwing anything down a 14ft pipe, its not going to happen. Quite probably some silly propaganda video made by the towly ban.
Americans have the fire & maneuver rule meaning many weapons don’t suffer the -1 for an Advance when shooting. Also, the Americans are only allowed one Jeep with an MG because when armed, jeeps are in the Armored Car slot and its only 1 armored car per platoon.
Blipvertus That rule is only for armoured jeeps. You can put as many unarmoured jeeps with MG’s as you want in your transport slots, but they loose their transport ability.
@@pbeccas Blipvertus is actually right, any transports that loses its transport/tow capabilities from being upgunned is then considered an armored car in the force organization chart. I can't remember if it's in the Rulebook or in a FAQ but I am 300% sure that's how it works. Feel free to research it
Where did you get the old Abe dice bag?
i have seen lots of nice bolt action dice bags at wargaming shows. I guess you can probably acquire them online too
what do you make your hedgerows from?
I know I’m a bit late, but I believe it to be strips of turf. Those fake grass mats.
@@j_d_gamer2091 Cheers!
Americans don't have penalties for moving and shooting on BAR's and rifles.
Yep its one of the thongs that make the yanks so maneuverable
@@leejames929 They wear thongs? Wouldn't that limit maneuverability? Lol
@@sartanawillpay7977 I've heard from a reliable Irishman that Scot's wear thongs under their kilts.
@@readhistory2023 I'm totally going to interpret that as flip flops because when standing there are clearly beneath it
MG Jeeps take up an Armoured Car slot, so only one per platoon -
Just to add to the other points raised. Good to see BA on the channel again though
George RR Martin VS Bruce Willis.
The charisma at work here.....
Jeremy did you forget how to play BA M8? 😂
MORE BOLT ACTION
This duel in Konflikt 47 would have been great! :D And yes, we need more Bolt Action and K47 battle reps!
Glad to see BA on the table. Love to see more Chain of Command and a continuation of the Kingdom Death campaign.
You were robbed Gerry, but a very entertaining video thanks
more grudge matchs please....bolt action tank war...konflict 47....shows the best alpha strikes lol
What a nice batrep! But please please please stop repeating myths from Enemy at the gates.
I had heard about that "myth" years before "enemy at the gates" came out so I guess it predates the film by a good 15years at least. I'm sure I read about it in a book about Stalingrad so either which mentioned NKVD shooting Soviet troops if they tried to retreat so I'm guessing that's where the film got the idea from.
Just a question but how many factions/country armies are in Bolt Action????
Pyrrhic Victory!
I don’t know about Jerry being robbed, but Justin did a good job of robbing himself. The Sherman can potentially have 10 shots, 5 from the hull mounted MMG and 5 from the co-ax. MMG get 5 shots in second edition. US troops armed with rifle and BAR do not take a penalty for moving and firing. So for most of the time you would have scored many more hits Justin. Love the game however, and would like to see more Bolt Action.
Jerry looks like Jerry Garcia
As good is the painting is on the American infantry those old plastic figures have nothing on the new sculpts
O for awersom
1:12:45 the tanks an M60 Patton
Why why why
Why not to a historical match?!!
Good video though
why not the lovely thing of table tops is you don't have to be historical you can do alot of what ifs
For the Americans first shots of the game you would of killed the sniper team. US troops don’t suffer the movement penalty unless it’s a LMG.
When wounding on 6’s you reroll then to see if you get exceptional damage and the medics can’t roll to save on exceptional damage. But you guys at least caught that right after.
On moral checks you don’t run away if you fail one. The whole squad is disbanded and is taken off the table and is counted as a kill for the other team. But you seemed to catch that one too as I continue to watch. Ha.
When hitting vehicles only indirect open top vehicles get the +1 on the damage chart. This was direct fire so that does not apply here.
Not sure where you get 4 shots for the American from. Unless it’s an LMG on the Jeep.
On the air strike you kind of messed that up. You forgot to place what direction the aircraft will come in at. That matters, check the rules.
When the tank shot at the sniper it was supposed to be 5 shots for an MMG. That rule has been messed up a couple times now.
You do draw a dice from the bag for defensive fire.
When shooting that Jeep, especially at the end I have no idea what you guys were doing!
The Zis gun should of shot HE instead of AP at infantry, I’m not sure why you would do that. And when 2 of the crew died fro that mortar a moral check was needed.
Yes robbed him but its all part of the game!
I can't believe U.S. would have won this. Everything went so sideways for them from the beginning.
7:22 AM 11/28/2020 Yeah this stuff sells. I like playing the computer game versions better.
Enjoy the game but one problem is that this could only happen after the Germans surrendered in which the soviets would use IS-3s and a few T-44s also the infantry would be consisted of veterans and trained units. But no matter love the show and good day
What is this Russian army with only 11 dice. Shame
the russian player looks like santa and thats a compliment
lol u actually came down here congrats to u
A friend of mine ha been trying to get me interested in playing BA. After watching this game all I have to say is NOPE. What a boring game, no maneuvering no tactics, no tension and no excitement. I'll stick with what I've been playing.
jdg - Can only agree with you. Played games like this when I was aged 12: directionless, plodding and very unsatisfying: put me off WW2 for several decades. BA seems to bear little resemblance to twentieth-century warfare: might work though for Crimean War, American Civil War or earlier.
And what have you been playing?
BA is imo one of the most tactical and interesting systems out there (at least among the more popular mainstream games) perhaps it was this matchup/scenario/players that you didnt fancy.
@@-Markus- I have no interest in getting into an internet furball over wargame rules just expressing my opinion. I'm glad you've found rules that you like and find interesting, I don't find them to be either. The game I play is a constant attempt to try and overcome the friction both the fiction of war as well as your opponent. I've watched several games of BA and none of them have appealed to me. And the game that I play is one of the most popular surprisingly popular considering that it doesn't have a major figure producing company behind it.
@@jdg6668 yeah but what is the NAME of your game
@@jdg6668 Nut up or shut up with the game title.
