Hello! I found this guide to be somewhat useful, but it does not cover problematic and not always obvious rules. Like it doesn't cover the flanking, gun jums, MG shooting from different turrets, reloading, angle the hull etc. There is also no examples in a video of how the shooting works against infantry and armored vehicles, which are quite different and may confuse new players (like me 😁). This game is not as simple and easy as it might seem. And I've found that many youtube gamers make huge mistakes during their playthroughs. It would be great to see a more detailed guide on the combat system itself. Because that's the core of this game.

Hello! Thank you for watching and for the feedback. There are two main goals of this channel. The first is to provide an overview of each game to those considering a purchase. Hopefully these videos provide enough information to help gamers make what is sometimes a considerable financial commitment. The other goal is to provide a basic introduction to the gameplay, not necessarily to review all of the rules or nuances of the game so a new viewer is not overwhelmed. You mentioned some good points regarding this game. Perhaps more advanced videos that focus on a deeper dive into the rules and actual strategy might be appropriate for a Patreon channel. If there is a demand for these types of advanced videos, that should definitely be considered. Thanks for the suggestions.

Hi! I have a doubt about the attack secuence. Suppose it is the enemy side's turn to attack: the rules say that the unit that fires must attack against the player's unit located in the first position of its alignment.. but what if the first unit of the player's line is panicked. .. The enemy side must also shoot at that panicked unit or must jump over it and attack the next unit in the lineup. What do you think? Thanks for your help. Grettings from Spain!
@learnthisgame661210 ай бұрын
Hello to you in Spain! If you refer to rule 19.2 Battle Results Table in the Commando main rules (not the scenario rules) it states that a unit that receives a second Panic result is eliminated, so I would direct the enemy units to fire at the player's first unit even if it is Panicked because it can still be eliminated with another Panic result. That is my understanding. Hope this helps and thank you for the question.

How do you know McDougal only gets 2 actions? It doesn’t seem to say on his card.
@learnthisgame6612 Жыл бұрын
That's a good question because it is easy to miss in the rulebook. There have been multiple versions of the rules including the original dedicated versions (for WW2 specifically) and universal rulebooks. Regardless of the version you can refer to the very beginning of the section SOLDIER ACTIONS: "All Player Soldiers have 2 Actions that can be spent each Solider Turn, unless otherwise noted on their cards." In the original WW2 rulebook I have, it is on page 20. In the April 2021 universal rulebook, it is on page 32. Hope this helps.

This was a really helpful video. Thanks for posting. I am about to play my first game and I had some rules questions that you’ve cleared up for me. A quick note-I just recently got this game (about a week ago), and I see that my map and rules have a 2023 copyright. It seems that there have been some small but significant changes with the new edition. The DAK counter is now placed randomly for each mission, rather than being assigned by the Mission Card. Jalo is now a base (and I have the odd situation as I’m about to play the Raid Rommel mission that one of my Objective Markers is on Jalo-I’m wondering if there is a rules oversight there, because if that marker ends up being a real objective, it’s already at a base, but if it’s a minefield, that doesn’t make sense-I think I’ll re-roll it). The rule regarding flipping Objective Markers is also a bit different-it seems that now you have to draw an Event Card when you enter a space with an Objective Marker, conduct any combat if required, then flip the marker, and if it’s a Minefield, you don’t draw a second Event Card. These notes are more FYI for you all, and for people coming to this video hoping to get play advice. I hadn’t run across your channel before, and I see you’ve done videos for a number of games I want to learn. This one was very well done. Looking forward to utilizing your instructions in future games.
