25 pdr are large gun if they ambush cannot be placed from Ambush within 16”/40cm of enemy Teams.
Firefly has protected ammo so pass double bailed to 3+.. the rulebook say " if the score is greater than or equal to the Team’s Motivation rating (or its Remount rating if different), the shot has no additional effect on the tank."
Yeah, it's not bad to make mistakes, but mistakes on base level rules... ouch.
Now that's what a game should be. Not hyper-competitive, friendly and good humoured. And it's nice to see forces that actually bear some resemblance to real-world formations. Far too easy in FOW to just take 2 Koenigstiger, 2 88 and a cheap platoon of infantry. Good video guys. Subbed on the strength of it.
Idk why but these games are so interesting. People say “it’s a board game it’s boring.” But games like these are very tense cause it can all change on a roll of a dice.
The next time someone say that this game is "boring" then we should just say that they are boring
Lovely armies and battle. Best board game.
Great battle report as always John. 👏
Sam why did you leave most of your armor out in the open? 🤦♂
Your firefly's should always be in cover as they can take out anything on the table easily so they will always be the main target if available for John to hit.
Good batrep. Shows off the rules well. Nicely painted armies. In terms of tactics - and this is gentle criticism - the Shermans should remain hidden behind woods until the reserves arrive. No point in advancing into the teeth of reinforcing Panthers. (I am guilty of this all the time, but I am working on it. LOL) Moving the Stugs to expose their flanks to the 25 pounders was just suicide.
I'll be real. At 31 minutes in I had no idea how Sam could stretch this out another 40 some minutes.
I like your games and your friendly way of playing them, always entertaining.
A quick reminder, don't forget to aim the attacking units at the target. This can be very important in terms of side armor or frontal armor in the enemy turn.
Rules question, why didn't the Panther fire its' machine guns at the artillery? It was within 16", otherwise there'd be a penalty for long range
Great game! Always love tuning into your battle reports!
Great report, thanks for sharing... John your dice can be filthy!! Worth noting that Sturmtigers have to range in each turn, ie they don't keep a range in marker on the board.
The dice were rigged, clearly! :-)
You had me hooked with Sturmtiger
What infantry platoon did the uk player take. Everything looks mechanized in the Bulge Britain book.🤷. Also it looks like Britain may be over 100 points.
Bail In? Do you mean remount? :)
Just come to your channel. Thanks for this, I enjoyed seeing how FoW plays.
I hate this wobly motion sickness inducing camera, learn to do fixed camera's please it's 2024 it's not that hard lol x
sorry you didn't like it. Currently I prefer the hand held look for battle reports. I'm sure there are other Batrep styles out there for you to enjoy.
@@AllMiniaturesGreatandSmall Really doesn't matter what you or I think about it, it's a method that's gonna get less and less popular on the account that motion/simulator sickness is constantly on the rise with each generation.
But of course I understand there is a limit to what you can do within a budget.
I'd look into a camera that can do higher FPS recording with less motion blur.
Or maybe it doesn't matter and most your fanbase doesn't care. Just feedback in the end of the day.
But yeah there are a lot of other battle rep styles out there that I like, just sadly none for specifically ww2/historical battle reports, I guess that might be why the sub genre is slowly dying... A lack of adaptability and a resistance to innovation can lead to things being left behind.
Not that it matters, your house your rules, what matters is if you have fun making these, anyway good luck bro, would've been fun for me if it didn't make me sea sick lol
Is there any reason the British didnt do any "shoot and scoots"?
Thanks for the video. I enjoy watching and playing friendly games. Both you and Sam are the kind of gamers I would like to have playing on my side or as opponents. Thanks for again showing that a game can and should be fun and not cutthroat.
The defensive fire from John's assault should have been 4's as he made base to base contact in cover. Right?
Ouch Sam, that looked painful! Will hopefully get my Brits out soon.
Oh yeah! Been waiting for this!
Doesn't the Brutal rule stack up with the repeat bombardment? Both force a reroll of succesful saves, so he should have rerolled twice, no?
Under re-rolls on page 24 of the rulebook, you can't re-roll a re-roll. My group has always played that this includes your scenario above.
@@michaelstuart614 Thanks for the heads up. I do not play that often.
I see the Team Yankee booklet peeking back there, future plans, maybe? 👀
If not mistaken the sturmgers get one swing for tank firing in the bombardment
You are right, they get 1 attempt to range in per Sturmtiger in the battery.
always one of the best FoW battle reports channel
Thanks!
Well done gents!
Didn’t think Archers could fire after coming on from reserves?
You are correct. Our mistake!
@@AllMiniaturesGreatandSmall still another great report though, I always enjoy them.
What specific UK rifle platoon did you take?
Oh I am seeing lots of Shermans! Most wonderful!
Bulge v Bulge *owo wat's dis?! intensifies*
Guards Armored Squadron.
thank you nice game 😃
you guys need to learn proper battle tactics and stop using 17 hundred battle tactics WW 2 was fought using fire and manouver one halh of the company manouvers to out flank the enemy while the other half stays stationary to pin the enemy in place also smoke gives cover and obscures vision use it.
Stugs are pronounced stewg not stug
