Tabletop CP: Bolt Action Battle Report- Operation Neptune

We try out the Operation Neptune scenario from the new Case Blue campaign book for Bolt Action

[@MiniatureGameMontage]

I love the way this looks. Terrain looks fantastic and natural. And a good game to boot!

[@nl4770]

Just bought my first bolt action set, a buddy and i are going to give it a shot! Thanks for the uploads!!

[@RoosterRC]

Because I hear it all the time: Heer is spoken like Hare (rabbit). Your batreps are top!

Andre's Soviet SMG squad forgot to reroll failed morale as per the Soviet National Rules. Great Patriotic War rule

[@bazza1carter]

A couple of us at the club are discussing campaign play and I'm glad this one came up. I've been playing Romanians so this is a great scenario from the Case Blue book I have for us to try :) Someone has already mentioned the Soviet re-roll that could've helped Andre, the other thing is the Marder has a crew operated MMG means it can fire either/or but not both.

[@howardeverton2847]

Awesome game as always. The Case Blue is a fantastic supplement.

[@josephsaliba9514]

Is that one gaming mat used or 2?

[@thefourhorsemen4839]

Such amazing battle reports, for the roads do you just put down some fine sand?

[@tabletopcp]

Thanks! Yeah it’s just sand.

[@geraldeade391]

Great game. What a difference the hill made, 👏

[@tabletopgeneralsde310]

Andre, the Soviets can re-roll test, which destroy the unit. Close game at the start, but Travis still came on top.

[@tabletopcp]

Doh we always forget that one. Thanks Jens

How did you made that grass patches? Where did you buy it? They are so cool

[@tabletopcp]

A friend made them for me. It’s teddy bear fur painted to look like grass.

[@stump182]

How do you manage cleaning up and reusing the gravel roads you put down?

[@tabletopcp]

I just shake it off outside. It’s just sand. I have like 59 pounds of it so it’s disposable

[@jamesmaybrick2001]

Obviously, each grain of sand is picked up with a pair of tweezers and put back in the exact space allocated to it in the SandTransportBox. Isn't that how everyone does it? :)lol.

[@stuarts9545]

I really enjoyed watching this game. I don't know if the straffing fighter rule is different in Case Blue, but ordinarily it comes with a +2 PEN, so all three hits should have caused casualties.

[@bena7294]

Great game, I am a bit confused about the choice of running the SMG squad directly out in front of the tank though 😅

[@tabletopcp]

Haha desperate times and all

[@ryanhorton2716]

If the dug in rules make them count as down wouldn’t that automatically halve hits taken from HE? 47:50

[@tabletopcp]

Yes. I believe we added some men back to the squad a few minutes later.

[@kierdalemodels]

Good game, gents! Very entertaining👍

[@zacharyjohnson4068]

Any tips for painting?

[@tabletopcp]

Oh man that is quite a big topic. Too much for a reply. Check out sonic sledgehammers how to paint KZbin channel. He does great and easy to follow painting tutorials

[@dnXprq9]

no need ruler/measuring tape?🤔

[@tabletopcp]

No you need them for this game

[@deccabw]

Played this at our club last Tuesday,1500pts Romanians v 1000pts,ended up a draw , would have won but our pilot rolled a one and hit our tank 😕😂

[@tabletopcp]

Damn pilots. Can never rely on them.

[@Fredeye63]
