US Airborne Vs Germans - 1000pts Late War - Bolt Action! 2nd Ed.

[@TikitheHutt]

Bolt Action Crew, Rise UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@MordianGlory]

Banzai!!!! Thank you for the support :D

[@utarefson9]

More Bolt Action is always welcome!

[@colonelsanders82]

Think this video might have sold me on Bolt Action. I love the way the units are showing up on the battlefield gradually as opposed to all at once. Also Kudos for the Medal of Honor soundtrack used at the start.

[@Astronomical_Cinematics]

Cheers! As an editor I figured I’d pay homage to respect the veterans of the Second World War. And to truly dedicate these batreps to those who love military history like myself. Thanks for watching!

[@arminsfrozenpeas007]

Everytime I watch one of these my wallet trembles.

[@beardfistthegoldenone7273]

Bolt action buy-in is quite inexpensive. Think I spent 200$ usd total?

[@arminsfrozenpeas007]

@@beardfistthegoldenone7273 good to know!

[@MutsuKazuma]

@@beardfistthegoldenone7273 yeah paints a re more expensive than the armies in bolt action

[@darrensbattlebunker]

More bolt action at last. Great video as always

[@JUST_GAUNT_GET_ENOUGH]

Heavily considering getting into bolt action with a friend.

[@dannyhalas9408]

Do it, it's so much fun.

[@beardfistthegoldenone7273]

It's a great alternative to 40k or fantasy if you play those.

[@Astronomical_Cinematics]

It's honestly great to finally watch this awesome matchup now of two of my favourite armies in the game (I recently bought the US Airborne starter set) after editing this batrep! Looking forward to providing more improvements on future batreps for both 40k and Bolt Action!

[@Per_Sun]

Utterly brilliant. Come for the 40k, stay for the Bolt Action! Thanks Mordian!

[@357Dejavu]

Wish we had Bolt Action in my local area! Fun game! I like this method of deployment!

[@RationalExpectations]

Always look forward to Bolt Action. The energy you put into these batreps is infectious.

[@Dracowinges]

That intro...ahhh..goosebumbps.

[@Astronomical_Cinematics]

Glad you enjoyed the new intro! I definitely will make some touch ups on improving the batrep introductions for the channel! Thanks for watching!!! o7

[@midwesternexplorer9339]

Its so nice to see Bolt Action. Though its weird seeing a USA Faction without air support.

[@Andrew-yl7lm]

Aren't US airborne air support lol

[@jtl-08]

@@Andrew-yl7lm they are ground troops, Airborne is an army division. He was talking about CAS or CAP those are actual air support.

[@cloaker2829]

i've heard cas is horrible in the current edition

[@ijsbeermeneer9952]

​@@cloaker2829quite true. Theres a pretty decent chance that the plane either doesnt show up or bombs/strafes your own soldiers. Just a few months till 3rd ed tho!

[@briarsandbantams]

Classy intro. Shows that we can have fun with a wargame, but still show some respect to the real people who fought and died.

[@charlesgould8572]

Ahh drats, now I want to get a bolt action army(ies)! Great report!!

[@ThatGuyMrman]

Always a good day when mordian is covering bolt action!!

[@robhassall1996]

More Bolt Action please!

[@domhardiman6437]

Highly entertaining and educational as always.

[@AJMOFO1987]

Cracking, looks like a lot of fun

[@calumdeighton]

2:47 "I've got all the Stgs" I very nearly heard STDs there, not what you said/meant.

[@ChrisS-fh7zt]

Stug 33B?, Stug IV?

[@calumdeighton]

@@ChrisS-fh7zt Stg44 rifles. Not Stug.

[@Per_Sun]

I'm pretty sure it's written STDeez.

I love the host his laugh has serious Basil Brush boom boom energy!

To the German Commander, N U T S ! The American Commander"

[@TheKodiak72]

Didnt invite Midwinter to have a game? He can play as Germans hahahaha

[@ChrisS-fh7zt]

Brought my IS-3 out on a 1300 point game and it is just bad when everything is an almost sure bounce off to the front of the thing DV-12. I lost but it sure cost the Germans most of their vehicles minus a Opel truck and Kubelwagen, 2 other trucks a SD Kfz 250/9 and Panther went up in flames. The Germans was able to claim central and both objectives on their side and I was only able to claim both of mine. The IS-3 cost 600 points so almost half of my points was tied into the thing but just fun watching an opponent sweat knowing he has not many things to go toe to toe with the thing.

[@robertstrong6798]

In fairness late war , Germany 🇩🇪 had assault weapons in mass production. But we’re running very low on man power. So your fav troops make 100% sense

[@Dirt1061]

We need more Jeeps!

[@ShaneBrayla-ed9qz]

Great game absolutely awesome to watch

[@Edithae]

Is that a german truck on the side of the US Airborne? I like it! Suits the theme to be using looted German vehicles behind German lines.

[@fedrick1connery607]

Great video

[@brandonmyers1400]

Snipers do their job

[@angelsoffurtitude]

>medal of honor theme god damn, i did not expect a nostalgia kick to the face

[@RussellWilliams736]

should have recced with the hellcat

[@joesteadman1014]

You can forward deploy on the objectives scenario? Guess I need to reread rules

[@destinhope3775]

I know this was just a friendly game but i just have to ask at 50:34 he rolls his green test/mixed quality and gets a 1, doesn't this mean he should take a d6 pins and go down? I'm not used to playing Germans....yet so as a bonus question is there any penalty for rolling a 1 on the second test other than them just staying regular assuming they passed their first test? I assume not but just wondering if anyone knows for sure?

[@binkymoon5238]

You are correct, the unit should have gone down and taken additional D6 pins. Page 90 in the rules.

[@TheTobaccoman]

BANZAI !!!!!

[@TikitheHutt]

BANZAAAAAIII

[@jonasgabriellim1315]

loved the video man! you should do a Band of Brothers custom scenario, i know i'd love to watch something like that with some lore and backstory

[@amaelrodrigues4076]

When you rolled that 1 on the green test for your inexperienced guys you were supposed to roll an additional D6 pins. Got lucky on that one.

[@Dreamaster72]

Good fight greetings from Mexico. Can the truck move without troops?

[@rileyjessup2414]

What battlemat is that?

[@westernfreedom5031]

HOLD YOUR CAMERA STILL!!!!

[@jonathanbirkeland1085]

You made a few critical rules errors that might’ve changed the outcome of the game. 1. You rolled a 1 on your Green test for your Volksgrenadiers. That means that not only do they not up-rate to regulars, but they also go DOWN and take D6 pins. 2. You have to win by more than one point. This game was technically a draw.

[@MordianGlory]

Good spot on the Volks! I checked my book and never noticed that before :) As for the mission, we were playing objectives and that mission specifically states that the player holding the most objectives at the end of the game wins

[@gamingborger]

this game really interests me but i'd go german cuuuuuz i like the panzer IV and we know who used those :P

[@robhassall1996]

Yesss more bolt action please!!!!!🎉

[@asArsenic]

Hmm. 40k with bolt action rules…

[@treerhino9k]

BoB, Gentlemans War, or Island Assault?

[@johnteixeira1791]

A year late but I think it would be M3 technically, lol.

its easy they had no more men to give them the best guns

[@keyne444]

The German victory made me upset >:(

[@mikeiamwtf]

[@TaylorMorrison-f9e]

Soooo sloooooow..... Nothing happens in this game....... Not encouraged to play this at all!

[@petergeddes8073]

41 mins in and nothing happened still. So I see we’re playing to be super-try hard and not actual fun. Maybe it’s a fault of how the map was designed, but these 6 on 6 rolls are so tedious. Take some actual risk instead of trying to chip away all of 1 or 2 models of the opposing army. The dice clearly aren’t rolling that way 🤷🏻‍♂️
