Great video. That first Panzer shot was brutal! At around 17:25 you used a Move order to reverse and then a Turn order to turn more than one hex edge I think. You can only reverse with a reverse order and can only turn one hex edge per turn order. I think you correct this. Doubles can’t be used to reverse either, just move or turn. The red “FMG” at miscellaneous 1 is Fire Main Gun. 2 is fire machine guns. At 27:20 you forgot your Miscellaneous phase. At 31.41 you turned twice with one order. None of this affected the outcome - you did well to survive! Thanks Dan.
Thank you for the clarifications mike! I notice that I got a little excited from feeling the pressure of being hunted by those Panzers! I try to remain calm next mission, but we got a Tiger comming for us so I'll make no promises!! 😁

Got mine the other day and scanned/printed the map and Mission 1 card. (I wish the book was spiral bound to lay flat.) I am going to use a combination of Lone Sherman and American Tank Ace counters. I hope to try it tomorrow. I am surprised the infantry do not move - it should be pretty easy to stay away from them. 🤔Thanks for the playthrough - you have been very busy!
Yeah infantry major problem for the player is the sniper. It can also become tight on the map when you have several infantry squads, and you are looking to stay away from them while in the same time trying to counter several enemy tanks! But in the first mission they are not such a big problem. haha yepp, got to try to slow down soon, but at the moment there is just a crazy amount of cool new games released!
Tip to keep them flat: Get 4 of those big paper clamps that form a V. Place a hardcover booklet (same size) under the right side and clip the open right half to the cover of the booklet.
Infantry appear in woodland and villages. It seemed a little unrealistic that they would leave that cover behind when there is a tank about. Don’t worry, as Dan says, they can still be a real nuisance in many missions!
@@mikelambosolitairebookgames Thanks for the confirmation. As Daniel mentioned, Infantry will likely have more effect in later missions. (Great game BTW)
Man, that’s a lot of tank rules for you to keep straight in your head. Thank you for the video. I’ve been curious about these book games, doubting they are for me. I did pick up Bismarck when it first came out, but haven’t played it yet. After watching the video, I still don’t think these book games are for me. The color and quality of the maps and counters add a lot to the experience for me. Good luck with your next mission.
Haha yes, I am amazed that I can actually do all of these games at the same time with so many rules 😆 Thanks Ted! Well if you do decide to try a book game in the future (besides Bismarck), this is the one I'd go with!
Cool, I now have a second use for my fully painted Tide of Iron painted painted minis. Oh and you forgot the mention for the Heroes of Normandie dice Tower😃
You know, just the other day I was thinking, "Daniel doesn't have enough Sherman tank videos on his channel. As a fellow RUclipsr I need to let him know ASAP!" I'm glad you noticed first though. 😉😆😆🤣
makes sense to go into hex 3 behind the forest and go hull down and try to smoke showing them your front, you will have protection from the impassable forest and the tree lines, then you can try flank them when they approach.
Great video! Just bought this. What are those tank models from? If we don't own them is there a sheet in the book we can copy and print with tokens, or we just use whatever we want? Would like to get the tanks to make it more thematic.
That sentence makes no sense? 🙈 But if firing with 1 armor piercing value against an armored value of 4, you need to roll 3 or higher. I hope that helps!

Your videos for B17 were my 1st to see of yours. Year later, we meet again for my new purchase of Lone Sherman. Your videos are great and very helpful
@@musik_non_stop Welcome back! I am sure you will enjoy Lone Sherman as well. In many ways it's similar to B17. A fun and narrative experience

Haha that's true! Sharp eye my friend! Combining the best from many worlds.

Thank god that it didn't have to come to that though 😆
@@WW2SolitaireBoardGameChannel I am very relieved 😌
Have a great day today! 😀

Good plan
Thanks for this video!!
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment Sir!
@@WW2SolitaireBoardGameChannel it’s a pleasure to watch your videos.
At 17:19 You are moving in reverse even though you didn't get a "reverse" result. 😉
ops! Thanks for noting :)
Great video! Just bought this. What are those tank models from? If we don't own them is there a sheet in the book we can copy and print with tokens, or we just use whatever we want? Would like to get the tanks to make it more thematic.
These tanks are from Memoir 44 and Tide of Iron! I'd really recommend Memoir 44, it's an amazing 2-player game.
At 14:29 you are not on the road 😉
ops! Thanks for noting :)
Are the tokens and pieces included or is it just the book
Just the book, and if you watch my "unboxing" you'll see the pages in the book where you have all necessary counters included on a page
If his amour is four and your AP is one do you not need a 3+ not a 4+
That sentence makes no sense? 🙈 But if firing with 1 armor piercing value against an armored value of 4, you need to roll 3 or higher. I hope that helps!
@@WW2SolitaireBoardGameChannel That's what I said, in the video you said you needed a 4+, I guess you just miss spoke
@@waynedaly100 Yes I've must have misspoke
