    When the PIAT hit in round one, you shot to glance needing a 2…should have been a 3 for long range.
    Enjoyed the vid and battle - good stuff 😊

    • @theministryofminiatures

      I believe Piat’s are shaped charge so do not have a long range penalty for penetration… page 73.

    Great battle report. keep up the good work.
    Lucky artillery strike from the British did take away the initiative of the Germans so they never managed to do anything except defending. But still exciting to the end.
    Love the beautiful painted models on both sides. Great paint work 😊

    Maybe the officer could have be given one of the men attached to the FOO instead... just a thought. As usual lovely figures and terrain. Great Game. 😄

      @theministryofminiatures  2 месяца назад

      I did think about that, but knew I would be hiding him out of sight and from being hit… 3 observer squad always gives my opponent something to think about and can be a good thorn in their side.

    For the british player: there's no Firefly in X corps reinforced platoon. Firefly saw very little action in Italian front 😉

    • @theministryofminiatures
      @theministryofminiatures  2 месяца назад +2

      Indeed you are correct, that’s why the army is based on X Corps and not actually X Corps… but it was fun to take in the game, especially since I don’t normally use tanks 😂

    Weren't there two or three opportunities for the British to assault and take out small teams (such as the mortar) rather than limited shots?

    • @theministryofminiatures
      @theministryofminiatures  2 месяца назад

      Maybe, sometimes I like to assault other times not, just depends on the circumstances… also I love using the flamethrower so try to maximise its use… there is always a risk of losing with an assault, even when you outnumber your opponent.

    Guys, one question, is it just me or do the British have almost no armor?
    Of their armored vehicles, I have only seen a maximum of two so far, Churchill and the fire-flay. Does this have any special reason?

    • @theministryofminiatures
      @theministryofminiatures  2 месяца назад

      You are correct, Bolt Action is predominantly an infantry game in my opinion at least, and I do not overly like sinking a lot of points in to expensive armour…. Expect when I take big tanks 😂
      Although I do like my Bren carriers and wasps!
      Any suggestions for what you would like to see?

    Shouldn't the 222's machine gun have 5 shots cos of Hitler buzzsaw rule.
