Eastern Front 1943 6mm AAR

[@MrElliptific]

Just discovered PW through Little Wars. Awesome battle report!

[@System-Update]

Great to see some 6mm on YT. Nowhere near enough WW2 at this scale out there. Nice bite size video too. Cheers!

[@WARdROBEPlaysWWII]

Agreed

[@davidwasilewski]

Looked like a great game. Thanks for sharing.

[@fedjagalperin9565]

Very nice looking game - I am a fan of 6mm anyhow. Never tried FFT3 though - we used to play PANZER in this scale, which is a board game but is easily playable with miniatures as well. Thanks for showing mate. Cheers Fedja

panzer is the hex wargame right?

I just buy the samurai pack. I was interested in the 2mm troops but... Samurais men. Thanks, they are really beautiful

[@russjenkins7349]

Great game with some great guys. Thanks goes out to the GM..

[@DE-rd1zl]

Very nice. When I saw this pop up and saw 6mm, I thought it was your Italian theater...nope. Russia 1943...awesome. I have always found Russian troops have a hard time vs German troops. I tried it with both armies being Average, that was fun.

[@MiniWarzone]

Very good to watch and great camera angles 😎

[@dluff]

Big fan of Fistful of TOWS 3 and play the rules here in Northern Virginia

[@ogopriater5914]

Which hobby shop in NoVA does FFT3?

[@popeofthesmurfs]

very very nice especially when i actually just picked up a copy of FFOT3. now may i know the scenarios that was featured in the video and the OOBs of both sides? thanks! looking forward to more ww2 6mm battle report videos!

[@Aaronfromprojectwargaming]

Unfortunately not since I didn't write anything down. Just played with what had. Sorry.

[@sparkey6746]

Good looking game, great AAR.

[@rickybell2190]

The amount of vehicles on the table is something I like too see whilst gaming 6mm. However I've never found rules that I enjoy except spearhead which has a few downfalls. I don't really know much about Fistful TOWs but the fact your fielding masses is a rule set that I'd might enjoy. Not sure if you have used spearhead but if you have would you consider F.TOWs better ?

[@Aaronfromprojectwargaming]

I have spearhead but never played it so unfortunately I can not compare them.

[@WARdROBEPlaysWWII]

Blitzkrieg commander is very good.

[@Templarorator]

Always good to see FFT3.

[@matth5241]

Great video! Love FFoT and GHQ Micro Armor

[@WARdROBEPlaysWWII]

Did you play just the free introductory rules or did you modify the full rules to make them simpler?

[@Aaronfromprojectwargaming]

Mostly the free rules set. I have the rule book and it's worth it for the unit and vehicle data but for ww2 I find the simple rules work just fine.

[@toketokepass]

Any chance you lads will be starting a batrep Patreon any time soon? Would be fab to watch these in full

[@Aaronfromprojectwargaming]

No plans to do a patreon.

[@thomasoneil28]

This may have been asked but was this battle at 1:1 scale or the usual 1:5 scale? Just wondering for organizational purposes. Thanks!

[@Aaronfromprojectwargaming]

The larger scale but pretty loose with that.

[@Anvilarm07]

Very cool. What looks like green roads confused me.

[@tabletop.will.phillips]

I like the multi camera setup. How'd you do that?

[@Aaronfromprojectwargaming]

One is my phone. The other is a web camera mounted to the wall run to my computer. Requires more editing but it can add a bit to the overall video.

[@tabletop.will.phillips]

@@Aaronfromprojectwargaming So it's a matter of using one audio file or another and then syncing the two video files together as best you can?

[@Aaronfromprojectwargaming]

@@tabletop.will.phillips correct. It can be a little tricky. Helps if you stop and start the videos so they are smaller. Easier if you do a voice over so you don't have sync sound.

[@uisgeuisce]

Great wargame! To what scale does 6mm correspond? (1:144? 1:350).

[@Aaronfromprojectwargaming]

1:300

[@uisgeuisce]

@@Aaronfromprojectwargaming Thank you! I can find easily 1:144 land and air units but impossible for sea units. Was hoping to find a scale to make an all army wargame. It seems I have to make the navy from scratch though I would have preferred 1:350 since it's more manageable though air and land units are missing there. Easier to make ships than the later.

[@rioploon]

Great board and report. Thanks!

[@minifun]

Good battle report. Unique way of showing it. With you talking and game chatter reduced GREAT

[@WARdROBEPlaysWWII]

I’ve just started playing 6mm FFoT, please post more game vids.

[@WARdROBEPlaysWWII]

How big is the table and the base size for infantry?

[@Aaronfromprojectwargaming]

Table was 4x6 plus. Infantry bases on 3/4 round.

[@a.t.822]

is one tank a single tank on the map or represents platoon

[@Aaronfromprojectwargaming]

One stand roughly represents a company or platoon.

How long did the game last?

[@Aaronfromprojectwargaming]

I think we played about 3 hours. Most of us new the rules already

[@S_sleepin]

@@Aaronfromprojectwargaming So you packed 3 hours of game into an 11 minute video? Amazing.

[@matthewwagner47]

Maybe the russian side used poor strategy and feel both groups positioned them selves for a slug fest decided in first round. My opinion. Great game friends. New to this

[@alexhunt7810]

bit of an ahistoric outcome. Getting into a close-in fight with Russian armour should have badly mauled the Germans, but instead they triumphed.

[@Aaronfromprojectwargaming]

True bit the germans ganged up on a couple t34 so they definitely had the advantage in that fight.
