1. Greetings. Love watching you guys play this game. One thing the defending troops should start the game in ambush because they can see the Germans coming long before they get to the beach. I would like to see you play this using the Chain of command rules

2. Guys more close ups again please. I can see a battlefield but get into it really as i would like without close ups.

3. I have a qeustion. If i have macinegun team. Are they to receive orders as seperate unit. Or do they integrate into a squad? And throw rhe fire dices together with the rifle men and move etc.

4. For the mine field. i would have the British side conceal a roll every time someone moves on the beach. If the movement was in fact in the mine field and would have set off the mine then reveal the roll to the German player. This way you never know it you are in the mine field until a mine goes off. Might be more overhead but it will keep the German player guessing. 🙂

5. Where is the train from? Is it 28mm or just HO scale? And what about those tall masts???

6. More bolt action!

7. bald guy cheats when he rolls multiple dice…he drops them instead of rolling them out.

8. Of course you would turn around the table instead of switching player positions! 😀

9. Any chance of some more bolt action games?????

10. I love the bolt action videos! Please keep making them!

11. To bad I get made fun of because I like this stuff im 15

12. Loves your videos guys, keep it up!

13. i wish have this in brazil, but we dont have i luve u guys, nice work

14. Could you guys do black powder glory hallelujah? Or just black powder?

15. Where do you buy the gaming mat from??

16. did anyone else giggle a little seeing where justin put his minefield compared to John, the coincidence was too funny

17. A very nice game. And thank you for the corrections this time. You should try this scenario ones more with less armor.

18. Are the bunkers classed as buildings meaning you need sixes to kill instead of normal wound rolls? Same as the gun shield rule?

19. brilliant boys

20. Where did you get your terrain/bunkers etc. from? P.S. great work with simplicity in terms of showing us the rules – this helps as I'm currently making FOW rules with elements of Bolt Action mixed in! Very helpful!

21. great video guys glad to see you guys putting the correct rules on screen….love seeing you guys play bolt action! just one suggestion why not use the rules from battleground Normandy for mines to make it more interesting?

22. Watching you guys play makes me want to play.

23. Don't forget you can't shoot within 1" of your own troops. Lots of firing by the Shermans over the heads of their own men.

24. You could have shot and the Bren carrier with the squad and possibly pin it since it is an open top vehicle plus the squad inside would also suffer possible pins.

25. Remember that the SMG has the assault rule; therefore, no penalty for movement!

26. Great battle as always. I've just bought the BoltAction starter set because of you guys. A while back you did a video about the BoltAction Dads army set. any chance you can do a battle with these please ? would love to see Jones take on some German paras

27. Ok guys Sargent Rock here, great game! heres some suggestion, on a beach assault get those guys out the beach and into cover as soon as possible, even if it means passing those bonkers and securing one side of the table from behind. try to separate units more and practice breaking clusters of men from behind hard targets by pressing with indirect fire. also Rallying troops is easier now as you roll to remove pins on your base moral so don't let your troops sit around collecting pins they will cripple you in the long run. also learn how to use smoke to move, it really helps. also do everything you can to keep units always moving forward while moving cover to cover. its all about maneuvering your troops for the shot even with pins. sorry got a bit carried away there. you should really try out small book camp sessions with say two squads with an officer and a mortar team, it will really help you practice using indirect fire and smoke. I love to watch these game. hope you keep them coming Thanx!
