Ambush in Bolt Action, a rookie tutorial

[@hawkins1384]

Hello! You meant the Australian commandos being set up in FD and with ambush?

[@williamkarl-gustafmoller8492]

So lets say a unit of 12 horses move up at the bottom of turn 2. At the top of turn 3 I go into ambush with my assault gun, and Fire with my LMG squad at the enemy horses. Because Ambush triggers on any movement - - even recce - - that squad of horses get blown up by my assault gun's ambush resolve. I see.

Yup or they stay andd take the LMG to the face😊

Parking Lot Ambush.

Very helpful stuff.

Ambush is a fun order. Thank you for the situation examples that helped me understand the rule book.

This was an extremely helpful video - I rarely call Ambush, but now I'm starting to see why it's so useful. Great video as always!

I almost always use ambush with weapons team or if I have a lot of weapons on a vehicle like a Tiger one with pintle MMG, or Sherman with a pintle MMG. I have not really used it for any of my infantry as I sort of move them almost every turn they are on the board.

I like combining ambush with my hidden set-up. They can’t be targeted for indirect fire because they are hidden and are only hit on a seven roll even in soft cover. Very good for AT guns if you do take them for covering a lane. I took out my son’s Tiger 1 (400+ pts) with my 57mm AT gun. So satisfying lol!

Which unit in the German has the hedgerow ambush rule?

[@boltactiontutorialsbybomor3846]

That is ONLY for certain theatre selectors. Not a unit
