    As someone who has played close to 10.000 matches of World of Tanks, I can confirm that this is a very accurate simulation of how a match goes. The german tank spends the whole match camping behind a house, the sherman BLOWS UP IMMEDIATELY, the russian tank is new at the game and drives seemingly aimless around in the open until he explodes and the cromwell is the seasoned hardcore player with the premium consumables who kills everyone. :D 10/10

    I bought into the previous incarnation of this game, TANKS, played a few games with my dad who is in his 60s and remembers the classic ww2 movies of the 60s and 70s. We got some enjoyment out of that simple system so I scaled it up and showed him Tank War from Bolt Action and now we play that on the living room floor at his house when I go out and visit.

    Funny story: most military vehicles dont actually have keys: in fact it's a joke in the military to get the new guy to go check out the keys for the 7 ton trucks. There is in fact one set of keys on a CH-46, though: to lock the crew door to close the aircraft up, but the actual lock usually isnt installed (not that the lock would do anything, you can access hydraulic controls to open the back from the outside). The Germans actually had keys to some of their tanks, but usually keys are one tiny thing a junior soldier can easily lose to destroy the combat effectiveness of a massive asset.

    • @Cloudman572
      @Cloudman572 3 года назад

      There is plenty of evidence to show that the early Sherman was no more likely to catch fire than other WW2 tanks including PzIII, PZ IV and Panthers, later WW2 Shermans were a lot less likely to burn than German tanks due to the later Sherman's wet ammo storage. Check any google search for Sherman tank burning/ronson/zippo myth.
      Zippo was the Sherman flamethrower tank and there is no credible evidence that zippo was used as a reference to the Sherman's burning "ability".
      Belton Cooper is responsible for a number of falsehoods about Sherman survivability.

    This looks like a simple and fun introductory game.
    I just wish they somehow incorporated different armour values into the system. They already have you measuring the 180-degree arc, and give a negative on the defense rolls for side shots. Doesn't feel like adding armour values to the front/sides/back would slow down the game that much. And preferrably as an extra step instead of just altering the successes.

    I used to play the old Mongoose game Battlefield Evolution with pre-painted miniatures. One thing I liked was that the game was more skirmish (with vehicles and squads) and allowed you to play in constricted urban environments. Has anyone seen anything more recent like that, that would work for 15mm? I'd love to use my Team Yankee mini's for something more skirmish like (but fast playing).

  • @mythrando
    @mythrando 3 года назад +4

    I really dig Team Yankee, but I love the skirmish feel of World of Tanks that you have shown. I'd much rather play with smaller forces where you move units individually rather than swarms of tanks.

    Thank you for this excellent video! As cool as this looks, I already play a lot of BattleTech, and this doesn't seem to do all that much differently than BattleTech, aside from the scale. I could see this as being a nice rules set for like an alternate-history RPG, but the fact it doesn't conform to historical standards and seems more like a tie-in to the video game kind of turns me off. I was an RPG-player first long before I became a wargamer, so things like universe consistency and other such topics is very important to me. Don't get me wrong, the game looks fun, and I hope people enjoy it, but I can definitely tell its not for me. Still, awesome to see another video from you, Ash!

      For $40, its impressively cheap if you're just looking to introduce someone to miniature wargaming. There might be some cheaper alternatives available (like the BattleTech Beginner Box, which I think is $20), but a lot of people will more readily recognize World of Tanks and real world tanks from history a lot more than giant fighting robots. Its simple (ish?) enough for new people to the hobby to understand, but like I've said in another comment, the fact that its more-or-less a historically-inaccurate tank game that plays a lot like Alpha Strike kind of turns me off of it.
