The Defense of Sihang Warehouse 1937 Wargame

[@samb2052]

That’s an awesome looking table. I like to see BA being used for historical scenarios rather than the generic ‘competition’ style normally seen. I find the ‘Too Fat Lardies’ Pint Size Campaigns work really well with BA. Looking forward to P2.

@@samb2052 thank you for your encouragement 🙏🏼

[@lessonsfromthefront]

@@samb2052 thinking back, just the set up of the table took me 4 hours, almost as long as the game itself 😂

Always the best games come down to the final turn. Well done and lovely to see good gamesmanship.

[@lessonsfromthefront]

@@vincnetjones3037 yes, thank you, it worked out brilliantly. You've also called it, the dudes really do have gamesmanship any club would be proud of!

@@jeremytaylor6045 I'm so pleased you found us and if you're ever in the neighbourhood, let us know, we'll include you in a big or one on one game.

[@lessonsfromthefront]

There is a part 2 and there are also other Big Game batreports. Where are you based?

[@shawncomrie9617]

Thanks you for yet another most interesting 'Hist-Battlegame' lesson. Great effort by you and your team.

[@lessonsfromthefront]

Thanks Shawn, appreciated 👍🏼

[@TheGlp007]

Great looking game. The table was very well done. I liked the "agenda and objective cards " Good fun :)

[@lessonsfromthefront]

@@TheGlp007 thank you

[@lessonsfromthefront]

Part 2 will explain the special rules a bit better

[@wargamingchina9174]

Fantastic game Eugene

[@lessonsfromthefront]

@@johnmumford9731 ahhh, nice, thank you

[@cymrodave]

Excellent board, looks like a great event. I really wish warlord would do more from the Chinese front of WW2, a battle for Shanghai would make such a good two player starter set.

[@lessonsfromthefront]

@@cymrodave yes, thank you, I totally agree. I wonder how I could get Warlord games to watch this video. Many have kit-bashed Chinese, I feel they deserve their own sprue. Having said that, there are so many uniform options for the Chinese, it may be difficult to know how to present a sprue...

[@ScottCundill]

Super cool! The work that went into this is epic. Good meeting you and your wife at the airport today in Malaysia Eugene! :)

[@lessonsfromthefront]

@@ScottCundill yes thanks Scott, it was great meeting you too

[@msoong]

An amazing setup, look forward to hear where you get your Chinese figures!

[@lessonsfromthefront]

@@msoong thank you and you're the second viewer to indicate an interest in the Chinese figures, so I'll make an effort to include some focus on how I created the Chinese. Thanks for watching. My next video will most likely be on the Ha-Go light tank, before I complete Part 2.

[@talesfromshedhq5208]

Make that three. Excellent batrep, very interesting. Been enjoying the Wargaming China channel as well 👍 looking forward to the info on scrtachbuilding the warehouse.​@@lessonsfromthefront

[@lessonsfromthefront]

@@talesfromshedhq5208 thank you and ok, will add a piece on the figures too. I'll be releasing a video on the Ha-Go first and then hopefully Part 2 will be done soon after that. Thanks for your support, cheers 🤙🏼

[@lessonsfromthefront]

Hi, did you get to see Part 2 and was the last chapter helpful?

[@msoong]

@@lessonsfromthefront Yes I did, it was very inspiring

[@h.s.lafever3277]

magnificent

[@lessonsfromthefront]

@@h.s.lafever3277 thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@drblasphemy]

Another wonderful batrep. I'm looking forward to part 2. Will you do a video going over the miniatures you used? There are always players looking for ways to convert miniatures into Chinese infantry. Cheers!

[@lessonsfromthefront]

@@drblasphemy mmm, good idea, I wasn't planning too, but I guess I could try to show some of the conversion off too... Thanks for your awesome comment 🙏🏼

@@drysavy12 thanks for watching 🙏🏼

[@matthiuskoenig3378]

quite a close game, considering how quickly the building could be scaled once entered why didn't the chinese put any units into ambush? could have won them the game. as for the ending *Battotai intensifies*

[@lessonsfromthefront]

@@matthiuskoenig3378 true, but I guess they were banking on evacuating squads into the British controlled concession across the river. Unfortunately for them, they miscalculated the distance and came up short. Had that squad crossed into British captivity, the Chinese would have snuck a win
