    Fabulous board, nicely painted minis, brilliant game play. Those Americans must have been deep into the Christmas punch and all had hangovers, it is the only explanation for all those ones. Well done!

      @ it is. My wife got me an Elegoo Neptune 4. I was printing a sd kfz 250/10. Id show how it looks but they don’t let you post a pic in the comments. (At least on the app)

      I want a printer for tanks and scenery - but can’t have smelly curing station etc due to lack of space with ventilation.

    34:30 Yes I'm still lucky. But if I remember right, than the reverse move of a vehicle is only made after an order test was failed. 🤔 And by the way a Panther has Reinforced Front Armor. So it has a pen value of 10 at the front. But you rolled a 6 anyway. 😅

      @Erzbischof1968 Месяц назад +2

      ​@theministryofminiatures At least I survived. But with the 4 at the front armor of a Panther, it was not a superficial damage. But it is game, and we are all in the beginning of V3. Let us see, what the next game brings. 😉

    Not sure the white panther should have retired as it didn’t fail a moral test-down is just halt for (armoured) vehicles?
