The Lard Strikes Back Chain of Command Star Wars Battle Report | Storm of Steel Wargaming

[@thataussiegamer6113]

Great to see another SW:CoC video! As admin and initial creator of the mod, it makes me so happy to see people having fun games (even solo ones). Looks great in 15mm too. And of course your video has brought a large influx of new members to the Facebook group, with hopefully more games to be played, ideas to be shared and fun to be had! Thank you!

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I'm glad it's given a boost to the group. The mod is excellent and I've used it several times now!

[@Heatsaber]

This is kind of what I imagine alot of the battles would actually look like. the generator are gone. I loved the Rebels getting cheeky and trying to sneak up the side and falling into an ambush essentially. Fun game.

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Cheers! I'm glad you enjoyed the game, it was great fun to play!

Hey Alex I've got a list question for you (grab a cup of tea because this might be a long one)... So I'm looking a head for building my Rebel Platoon (I want to use Star Wars Legion figures, in case I want to dabble in those rules later on, yes a little 2 for 1 show). I am struggling to find Rebel Troopers brandishing the T-21. So, I'd like your opinion on this list modification, if I replace the T-21 Team with a Z-6 Rotary Blaster Team (which are fairly common in the legion boxes) would a fair compromise be to Add one additional Stormtrooper to each opposing Assault Team? (Since the T-6 has similar characteristics as the T-21)

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

TBH, I'm not too sure what the effect would be and f you'd need to balance it with more Stromtroopers, why not just try it out and see what fits?

[@basement1908]

Sounds good 👍 I'm still in the planning/ pre-purchase phase. I will let you know later.

[@andrewdad10]

The long awaited return. So much better with 15mm miniatures.

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Cheers!

[@andrewdad10]

@@StormofSteelWargaming Have you ever though about clone wars COC?

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

@@andrewdad10 no, because I only like the original three films and the Madolorian series when it comes to Star Wars. I can't stand any of the other stuff, tbh.

[@oldschoolfrp2326]

Nice, good Star Wars rules are good WWII rules, and vice versa. The combat in the original movies seems heavily inspired by WWII adventure movies of the 60s-70s, with a bit of Wild West & samurai films stirred into the mix.

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Cheers, glad you enjoyed the video. Yep, Star Wars was heavily influenced by Kurosawa and Flash Gordon.

[@get_the_lead_out]

Loved the CAT-AT!!!!😸😼. Really enjoyed the game - CoC rules port over to the Star Wars genre really well. I have a bunch of WOTC SW minis. I definitely will try these rules out! Have a question about the marshy areas. Did you use resin for the wet parts, or something like Modge Podge? I’d like to try my hand at making those - they really look great. I’d love to see a video on how you made them.

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Thank-you, glad you enjoyed the video. CoC is a perfect game for Star Wars. I bought the marshes from somewhere, but I forget where now, I'm sorry!

[@DH-WarRoom]

My cat wrecks the board on purpose. :D

[@AndrewSmith-fd3fi]

Great to see another COC SW AAR! Few quick questions if I may, were did you get the Morale Trackers, perfectly sized for Minis bases, and are there rules for At-ATs and X-Wings or Snow Speeders?

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Glad you enjoyed it! The morale trackers are made by Sabotag3d, as for rules with vehicles, currently there isn't, but I don't think they'd be too hard to brew up your own, TBH.

[@AndrewSmith-fd3fi]

@@StormofSteelWargaming Thanks for the reply, hope its not another year for the 4th one of these. Vehicles something to follow up with the FB group I think then get back gaming at my FLGS. Might start with the Clone Wars, also this seems to be 3-0 to the Empire from the AAR, I think this was closest of the 3, but I wonder are the Rebels missing something?

[@richardb1815]

fabulous video Alex.. the quality and graphics just continue to improve all the time. I have a hoard of unpainted Star Wars legions minis and am definitely inspired to get them painted up for some CoC

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Thanks Richard, the CoC SW mod is an excellent one and the Legion figures work really well for games!

[@basement1908]

Alex this is so awesome. thanks for doing this! Great game. Quick question, is there a file for a main rulebook? I'm just seeing the special rules and the list files on the Facebook group. Is that everything? I haven't read them yet, just downloading real quick while I'm at work.

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Non worries and I am glad you enjoyed the show! Yes the special rules and lists are all you need. It plays pretty similar to CoC, just the weapons have different names and a few extra little rules amd national characteristics.

[@basement1908]

Thanks Brother. Have a great rest of the week 👍

[@theDexMcHenry]

Fun stuff. I wonder if the rules would work for scifi outside the Star Wars universe. I have loads of the old Laserburn figures.

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Cheers, yeah, there would be no issue with changing a few things around to make it work.

[@theDexMcHenry]

And I am guessing the Highlander Minis are now OoP?

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Not that I am aware, they still seem to be active on the blog so it's worth sending them an email

[@sebastiansteudtner8264]

How do you do that computer-aided Patrol Phase?

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

From I Would Like to Rage's app. Have a look at my other CoC videos and you'll find the link in the description of some of the newer ones.

[@leefisher6766]

Scruffy looking nerfherder..... figures look great!

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Who's scruffy looking? Cheers Lee!

[@leefisher6766]

Just finished the game, really enjoyed it. That bright white dulux really does help in woods, love it! Will try coc with my heretic 28mm legion stuff.

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

@@leefisher6766 don't worry, I have Legion stuff as well that I use for CoC!
