Jake looks so much older in this video, like an Eastern Front General who has seen too much, haha. War with the soviets has aged him

Enjoyable watch, thanks. I particularly like the cut scenes with cool lighting effects. Great spirits regardless of dice, showing the way to play. Never thought id say this, but Soviet Smoke is very good, and really restricts the usual first couple I'd turns where the defender things out the attacker.

Game deciding error at 43:18: The 2 Panthers would have had a turn to move In Command. They were In Good Spirits, since they ended their previous movement phase In Command, and they stay In Good Spirits until the end of their next Movement Phase. They rolled a 2 for Last Stand but they shouldn't have rolled in the first place. If you play it by the rules, the upper Panther would have moved towards the Unit Leader Panther, and they would still had 3 shots at the IS-2s and 2 fully funcional Panthers for the IS-2s to shoot at.
@sveda223 жыл бұрын
Another mistake at 56:20: Even if the IS-2 had the Range to shoot at the 88 (not entirely sure) it wasn't a 4+ but a 5+ because of the 88 is aggressive (3+), dug in (4+) and at long range (5+). The 4 that was rolled for the IS-2 was not enough to hit, that 88 should have remained on the table.
@sveda223 жыл бұрын
The Final big mistake at 1:00:00: You always have to roll for Remount (and Rally) first, only after those rolls you go ahead and roll for any Last Stand tests. It was incorrect to make the Last Stand test for the Panther the first roll in the Starting Step. The 1 that was rolled should only mean that the Panther doesn't Remount.

in this case, not sure if i would not have put the 88 on the board and the panther's in ambush, that way, the IL 2's can't target them. It would limit their placement but they can still move if they want and you can reveal the ambush, i believe within 8 inches if in concealing terrain. Congrats on graduating Jake and always make time for AMG&S
@AllMiniaturesGreatandSmall3 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the comments, It's always a challenge to decide. 88s on the board from the get go are so much more easily countered or dealt with but Ambushing a panther platoon is so very powerful.
@bernhardholmok99503 жыл бұрын
@@AllMiniaturesGreatandSmall the panthers in ambush are devastating,,,,3 x 2 shots and then they can move, etc. The 88's can start dug in giving them additional protection. If you get flak, you can get the non mobile flak and dig that in too. It may not move but really, that should become your within 4 inches of the objective.

Great bat rep as usual. No offence, but Jake showed how not to use a luck card. You use it to save a platoon of Panthers or some other game-winning roll. It also looked like those 88s should have been in the central field for a better LOS. Thanks for posting.

Maybe the 88's (or the Panthers) should have ambushed earlier up against the smokescreen. I think this is what we will see more and more for German players against the Soviet 2 round smoke.

Now that’s how the Russians play! Crush the dirty Nazis with impunity with 80% of the Rusky points still on the table. Pretty much my experience playing Germans, Russians and watching games lol. Keep up the good videos! And congratulations on graduation, I’m graduating too so cheers! And I’d enjoy a blue on blue fight, it’ll definitely be less predictable (last two games were flukes of a new army). Actually I enjoy all your content so if you wanna put up a legion vid, please do, would enjoy a black seas (naval game) report because I’ve never played it, and I’d love to see that old Yamamoto fly the skies once more!

The German players hasn't nothing to do I think he got confused with the battle plan choosen defend vs these soviet list. Soviet has planes with at 10 with cannos or AT 5 vs 1 on top in Panthers ignoring short terrain, has a 9 IS 2 vs 3 Panther... the game is a fucking joke
