I just got into FOW and want to say great video! I really appreciate you guys taking the time to explain what's happening and why roll values are what they are, really helps me to better understand the game and the rule book. Looking forward to watching your previous video and any new ones that come out.

You have to roll a cross check for any kind of obstacle. However, terrain is pretty subjective, so its best to discuss it with your opponent before the game. I have been playing for 11 years and forgetting to talk terrain before the battle has bitten me more than once.

As far as I know it's Fortress Europe (generic late war), the 4 D-Day books and the latest book, Bagration. All of those use the new points scale. older V3 books can still be used in V4 with the conversion info that's out there but I wouldn't mix them against each other.

FYI - gun teams CANNOT Blitz. And, the 6-lbrs only have ROF of 2 now!! Otherwise, a very enjoyable game to watch !! Sorry, one more point worth noting. At the end of the German Turn 6, had the Tiger consolidated back to within 4" of the Cromwell objective, it would have been game over since the Tigers started their turn contesting the objective and at the end of the assault, there were no British forces left within 4" to contest. But then again we would have missed all the ensuing action, so maybe just as well. Again, it was fun to watch, thx.

Harlow, great point with the blitz thing, just paused the game to raise the issue but then I would like to say that if the Tiger started the turn in 4 inch of the objective and at the end of the german player there were no defending units with 4inch, the German player would have won the game even if the Tiger was outside 4 inchs. This is the new rule in V4 for winning. But then amd again, I will resume the video, great job, keep posting battle reports and engage with the community!

The Tiger is a beast for sure. I'm honestly surprised that Jake pulled it off, but it goes to show you that stubborn veteran infantry can keep you in the game. I think Jake needs to up his anti-tank game though. PIATs and AT10 tanks just don't cut it in a land full of cats. I have a shed load of Fireflies and they really earn their points. Also, 17lbrs, when you're going to be on the defensive, are very useful. I do like the 6lbr though and his platoon was a plucky bunch. I do disagree with Jake that his list was superior. It's solid for sure, but I think the Tiger list is more powerful. Maybe you should have taken more infantry, Jon? I love STUGs, but honestly your Tigers had the whole big gun thing covered. I think a full grenadier company would have really helped here as it would have given you the bodies that you needed to swamp Jake. Or perhaps a battery of artillery? Jake's boys were pretty close in- a battery wefers would have really ruined his day! Anyway, great game!

Agree that Stugs were redundant - I'd take grenadier platoon plus Wespes and maybe observer to let them stay hidden. Same price, and it would have created MUCH more pressure for Jake than the Stugs did.

the models in this game represent one to one, with infantry stands having 3-4 man on each medium base. I took a Tiger Company, so I would expect lots of tanks, Jake had Paras with Tank Support. While perhaps Artillery and more AT guns would be More realistic it is not unrealistic to assume that the first units arriving to support beleaguered infantry might be motorized. Thanks for watching!

Hi Martyn, Thanks for checking out the channel. Coming up with the justification about mission goals is up to you(and is part of the fun). What to the Objectives in this game really represent? It's not really important to defend a burned out tank but if the bossman says, "Hold the Crossroads" that's what you do. In this scenario though the Random delayed reserves means that the players aren't sure where the enemy is until the roll onto the table.
