They’re not dropping the dice bag. The mechanic literally makes it the most unique mass-battle game on the market.
@@SuperDuperHappyTime I agree. But I’ve heard people complain about it being swingy so thought I would bring that up.
I would like to see you play a solo game of bolt action, that would be cool to watch.
To see how I play Bolt Action solo watch this.

Great video ! Lots of cool ideas !
I liked the rules you did for the mine feild,
There are rules for mines in BA but I prefer my system.
Nice update, I've always enjoyed bolt a film games I've played high I background in a while. I didn't realise grenades was not factored in seems odd considering the type of game it is and the importance of the grenade in the infantry tactics. I like the pin system also and agree the machine gun did dominate areas through expression and was a very difficult adversary. I even agree too with your thoughts on melee I would like a unit ability to go into melee with a rare leadership trait and even with that trait the leader would need to roll to summon the quality footsie a unit in. I think some scenario specific games perhaps could make it more easy to do. Units should also not stand in a position once opposite g fire gets to a point.with the position back games stronghold factor..With a certain concentration of fire should be a tipping point for a unit to get out. ...thanks for posting I'm looking forward to see what they bring kht..I hope you don't need to buy to many supplements to play a basic game..Thanks for posting.
A submachine gun and pistol both have the Assault rule, this means it doesn't suffer the -1 penalty for movement anyway. You still take Long Range penalties at 12 and 6 inches respectively
The Sherman has a turret mounted Medium Anti-Tank gun, possessing a penetration value of +5. The Hellcat is equiped with a Heavy Anti-Tank gun, with a penetration of +6. That is because the Hellcat's gun has a higher velocity than a Sherman's.
Where are you getting templates for flamethrowers? They only deal at most d6 hits for an Infantry flamethrower, and have a 6" range
What half-tracks come with 5 MGs?
In Konflikt 47, they have a rule called Elite, it is a hefty cost (11 points per unit) but they get a chance at doing another action so long as they didn't like shoot or assault on their last action. I think you might enjoy that even if just homebrewed
Someone proposed that there should be a leadership test if they lose, a pass means they fall back, and failing is they are all dropped. That sounds better, or if they went to an overrun system where you roll like 1d6 when you lose and if the enemy rolls equal or higher they wipe the losing squad
what if orphaned tank crews join the closest friendly infantry squad? The squad could replace d3 casualties, say.
No stores in ny carry any of these books
Interesting. Don‘t play the game but doesn‘t sound very historical.
Have not played other wargames, but yeah Bolt action rules are pretty straitforward and are too simple for details. Also fun is important thing.
Would it be fun that your tanks break down before the battle and you could not use them? Same can be said about foot troops, they execute their orders perfectly, in real life there would be lots of uncertainty for commander.
There are 4 things in my opinion that make Bolt action more realistic than many other game.
1. War is random and is not a pokemon battle, the turns are randomiced on the dice bag.
2. Humans are scared of shooty things, thus in the game they take pins if shot at. These pins make executing orders harder.
3. Armored targets are nearly impossible to defeat without antitank weapons. In the game and in real life.
4. Japanese, Germans and Brits are all humans thus all nations have units that can do the same job. Your list can specialice in any way you want.
@@Ostvalt Didn’t mean to imply people can’t play and like the game. I’m in the hobbyist camp. If you are having fun playing the game then it’s a good game. Having said that, regarding the tank breakdown, why not? For someone else, that level of verisimilitude could be exactly what makes it “fun”.
@@marchhare22-lm9on You have to understand that tanks are point sinks and losing one randomly is not fun. You could easily lose 1/5 of your fighting power.
Bolt Action is skirmish/battle wargame. There are different wargames for ultrarealism. These are usually theater level games, good example is The campaing for North Africa.
