Let's Play MBT by GMT Games, Turns 1 & 2

[@holden88]

Soviet penetration of 108 vs M1 armour of 100 means KO not BU, correct?

[@jeffthompson2264]

I am trying to wrap my head around the need in this system for a MBT with stabilizing fire control why a short halt order is applied to by the M1. As an armor officer during this time I can assure you we did not require short halts to engage targets on the move. In fact increasing speed in average terrain gave the gunners a better Shooting platform and cleared obscuration from the last round shot. I just picked up the rules to add to my collection. I am looking forward to trying them either way.

[@CounterProductiveGames]

I think that is mostly just a game mechanic and the stabilization is there to compensate for that. And the golden rule I truly believe in is, if something doesn't make sense, just house rule a change. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment.

I hate to be grumpy but that 1 thumb down bothers me, I love this game. you did a great job to play this game out. Please play out more of this game, such a great tac game.

[@CounterProductiveGames]

Thank you Kevin for taking the time to watch and leave a comment. I wish I could make content that pleases everyone, but I'm glad you enjoyed this one!

@ 10:00 : where did you read movement sequence is different from PANZER? I think the sequence of play is exactly the same... also, there are staggered optional rules for both... the only differences from both come obviously of the different equipments. Regards!

[@CounterProductiveGames]

I watched that clip and I mentioned that I thought it was different. I was going off my memory which is never a good thing. They are the same, I just reread both rules. We house rule with alternating movement and I think that is what I was remembering. Good call out though, don't want to confuse people!

[@SaxonChronicles]

I just played this solo also. I didn't see any need for terrain objectives. the combat is so deadly in 15 turns the side that survives would then just take the objectives with no opposition

[@CounterProductiveGames]

It just feels deadly in general. I'm not sure i've played any long games.

[@jeannettebertelsen5367]

very enjoyable vid.

[@war_gamer]

what was the catalyst for using all basic rules vs advanced?

[@CounterProductiveGames]

Thanks for asking. My thinking was start with basics just in case someone new to the game is watching. I can add more advanced elements later to show the modularity of the system and how easy it is to add more complexity over time.

[@Tareezo]

You didn't roll to hit with the M1s. Only with the T-80.

Cue the Sir-Mixalot "I like big tanks, and I cannot lie." An attempt to invigorate the P500? Done! I have the AH version which was good for it's time but the GMT is much prettier. Thank you for the video.

[@CounterProductiveGames]

Thanks for watching, I'm glad it was use for you. If we can get enough P500 orders, maybe they can send me box :)

[@MrNeverbeentoEurope]

@@CounterProductiveGames I thought it was weird they had all the components except the box. Hopefully we can get you a box!

[@mister2628]

Despite it's numerous flaws this is an excellent game to play.
