    Not liking it, rules be damned but having vehicles on both sides makes better box for new guys who will split it.

    It doesn't even matter if it's balanced or not. Nobody getting into the hobby would feel good splitting a starter set when once force has 24 soldiers + a vehicle and the other has just 18 soldiers. Such a miss on warlord's side.

  • @gwerig3692
    @gwerig3692 3 месяца назад +1

    I love the new miniatures, they look great. The box doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me, though. Even if, hypothetically speaking, the sides are balanced for 3rd edition, or if the miniatures are made with a very specific packet of scenarios in mind, it's a very poor deal for a current German player or someone just getting into Germans. If we assume that the new infantry boxes are going to run $60 USD for 30 minis (or 5 sprues), the German player is getting about $36 worth of miniatures, and the American player is getting $83 worth of miniatures. I wonder why Warlord did it this way? I was hoping for an article on their website explaining their thinking behind the box set.

  • @gdmunn83
    @gdmunn83 3 месяца назад +6

    Always fancied getting in to bolt action but all the battle reports I watch seem to be small infantry squads fighting each other at range needing 7’s to hit and then if they do hit they cause like 1 damage from a whole squad or some suppression. It’s like the squads run around firing blindly in the air and never really cause much damage. Also the games always seem very heavily infantry biased and I very rarely see any exciting tanks fighting off against each other?

    • @ethanklee9041
      @ethanklee9041 3 месяца назад +2

      Well the games main focus is heavily infantry centric, and the game generally has a really high time to kill. The game doesn't tend to focus around killing enemies, rather instead being objective heavy missions.

    The new Battle of the Bulge starter set looks great. I know that some U.S. soldiers lacked winter clothes at the start of the battle, hence the lack of winter camo, but I’m not a fan of the brown (nearly maroon) colour scheme in the sample photos. They’re practically Redcoats! The box art’s brown jackets look more authentic; I plan to paint them like that.
    It’s disappointing that the Germans don’t get a vehicle (I know they’re paratroopers) but I suppose the terrain piece will be a good discount.

    I love the Battle of the Bulge, so I'm excited for the new miniatures.
    I have no idea why Warlord Games is so abysmal at taking product photos though.
    There is literally no indication that you're getting two vehicles until you view the entire slide show or read the entire product description.
    Why is it so hard for them to take pictures?
    I've got army sets here from them which don't even have a single picture on the box of what's inside.
    It's infuriating.
    I'm a bit upset that the "free" rulebook is just the mini rulebook with the absolute minimum too.
    I also really want the Major Erwin Konig model and I'm also irritated that he's only available as a tournament prize. I don't do tournaments, so I'll probably never get it.

    No, I disagree. You have the assaulting force from the historical scenario, who should probably have been Panzer Grenadiers, inferior in numbers to the defending units and without any historical armoured units, like a STUG or MKIV. Very unbalanced kit.
