Dave, your videos on 'Storm of Steel' have been very useful in helping me learn the game. I just purchased a copy of the game and l have a suggestion. I noticed that the Ju-87 cards tend to spin on the board. I purchased some photo corners used to hold photos in scrapbooks. I used one on the upper right hand corner and another on the lower left hand corner. It holds the card in place without obstructing the card or board. Again, Thank you for your videos!

You did a good job you have missed a few rules mainly in the ASW phase but you've got a lot of it correct. I would like to see how you set up your escort cup. I'm thinking you may have done it incorrectly, but we didn't get to see you set it up. Reach out to me if you have any questions, I'd be happy to help.

Can you start an ASW phase you should do all of your escort movement it's number 1 on the flow chart and move escorts from the bottom of the track to the top

I’m still learning the game, but I think you should have only drawn three damage cards on the depth charge attack that sank your u-boat because you were at thirty meters. The extra three cards, I believe, are just for periscope depth if I’m reading the icon correctly. Thanks for the video, it was very helpful.

Thanks for the demo Dave. Interesting game, but I think I'll stick with the simpler faster "The Hunters/The Hunted"system.

Those boards could benefit from some double layered indentation....

Remember. Hvy is to be avoided as you can. RIP

You could have spent your last TP to re-pull that catastrophic damage card

When you're resolving attach on your U-boat you do them one at a time and complete them before going onto the second one so you pull that attack card and if there's any damage you pull a damage card and resolve it before moving on to the next card

Dave. Vassal has a great aids for the game. Watched a live playthrough with the designer Bill. Very cool.

How many turns do you have to stay in the approach boxes getting pummeled?

On turn 2 when you did it crash dive that should've cost you a TP

I'm learning a lot from your video. I'd say go a bit slower on the card pulls and explain the result. I'm a bit lost on those. Good work though ...

So when the playthrough arrives?

Interested to watch your play through but man I have probably 5 unplayed games on the shelf and two in the P500 pipeline. Maybe this winter I'll get some time...

I so want to see s playthrough. Looks like a good game.

I wish only sales were not now I just don't have the money to to buy anything. Hurts to delete all those sale emails. Maybe some odds and ends for my miniatures but I can't see buying any $100, plus or minus, game at this time. I've got a few pre-orders in and I'll probably just stick with those for now. Looks good though...

Evening.👍

8:35 Doesnt this symbol mean you have to DO a check at +20, not that you get a bonus to other checks? Wonderful video in any case, really help understanding the game to see it in action in such a clear way and at a good steady pace!

Didn't roll for landing

Really appreciate the playthrough, awesome stuff, ty!

Can you tell us where you found the chart cited at the 10:30 mark?

Enjoying this play through. Looking forward to more missions!

Thanks. In general, I do not like home made player aids and components added in any game. I trust designers and playtesters to do their work and add player aid if needed.. Adding stuff will often break the flow. I use only the manual. Tables are in sequence - flipping to next page as I go. Moving to a different table (rarely) out of sequence, it is noted in the table. I play much much faster without missing a step, than guys using player aid here at youtube. I find the optional rules interesting. No doubt a lot of work creating this. But of course not well organized. If I am going to try it, I will use the basic manual as I normally do, with yellow out reference to optional rule, with a similar note in optional rule where to go back to the manual. Unless optional rule or just this campaign - Escort strength is rolled for one leg at time, not the complete route. In this case, checking escort strength back home is done after target zone. Off target - you still roll for possible hit % - a different table. Sequence in target zone: Normal sequence from tech fail to complete attack sequence. Flak. Bomb run - and turn bomb counter facing back home. Flak. Complete attack sequence - no change in weather. Thanks for doing this. I really enjoy your Gaming Cave. We have identical interest in wargames.

Thanks for previous answer. Does this 190 game somehow reflect that 190 had 4 times the firepower of 109? You have both games as I see in your playlist, so is it different from Skies over the Reich?

There should be a second edition of TFT using the updated rules. But considering the meager production rate from Legion Games I'm afraid that we'll never see it.

Is there somehow in the rules reflected that when you have multiple planes attacking the same area it lowers the defensive fire intensity by spreading it?

great play through.

Love the game,my crew is now on 20missions, minus one casualties and crash landing.

isn't DAYS 2d6?

Chris and Joe have done some excellent variants for TFT.

I am also using the same Zone sheet, but I modified mine a little. The original did not have the mechanical failure check on it so I used the same format and just added it in. Also with the typed font, it makes it more thematic to the time period.

This is one of my favorite games. A friend of mine had B-17 Queen of the Skies and we had a blast with that one. However, I think Target for Today is a better game. I have been using most of the charts you mention except for the one that were released in July. I will be sure to Check them out. I hope you are planning to make this a series.

Thanks. I love this game. I will have to check out the variant tables.

My problem with this otherwise excellent game is that it doesn't take time in between missions into account. Resulting in a game that basically lasts a month.

Hi! Great video! Time to get the game from the shelf! Could you please list the variants mentioned in the video or at least the variant author? Thank you in advance.

Impressive - looking forward to the missions. As mentioned by Quicksilver, I will doing the same

I just dusted my copy of this game. Guess what I’ll be playing real soon.

Thanks for the video. Regarding the enemy being unprepared, I think the rule says that once alerted, they receive orders the next Impulse, not the next turn, but they can't act on it until the NEXT impulse. In effect, they won't act until TWO impulses later.

Been watching through these. it's a great game! ty very much for your time One thing I wasn’t doing for the longest time was having the enemy soldiers duck back when they move from an out of cover position to an in cover position. They have to pass a TQC. Need to look that rule up bc it can change the game quite drastically. I didn’t really think about it until I watched Combat Boot Camp vids where he explained all that.

This is a real fun game and a great value. I’m glad to see other people playing it.

6:10 first turn you could have drawn a card from your special starter (which ended up being a fight). You would have had 6 attack the first turn! You could have hit Goldfinger the first turn of the game. Amazing

The thrilla in Manila

Dave I’d like to make a suggestion for a fight…recreate the ‘Rumble in the jungle’ Ali vs Foreman!

Was there no weight points penalty and/or extra stress based on the mission's location?

Nice where can I get this game in the US? Thanks

More Title Bout II please Dave.

You modify the WS or TQ not the dice roll. You are doing it right sometimes and not sometimes. Ex hide un Brocage is -4 WS he had weapons skill of 4 so his WS=0 so you had to roll a 0. Not -4 off the dice roll. Also you are forgetting that you are BOLD sometimes.

glad you like the tarot cards.. they are neat... I showed that off on my channel about 2 months ago... and I love them as well...

whats up Dave.... good stuff..
