VIVE LA LATRINE!

Really enjoyed your naval Battles, just bought some Tumbling dice ships

Great looking game, enjoyed it

Flaneur didn’t need to make an Uncontrolled Troops test to attack the jaegers behind the hedge. Uncontrolled Fire only applies to Formations, not to single Groups firing.

Don't know this rules, but I wonder if IRL the skirmisher screens shouldn't retreat behind their parent battalions when attacked

Excellent

Great battle and the French really was eager and pushed on. Keeping the initiative and forced the russian to respond and didn't give them any respite.

Very good game and a great set of rules! Cheers ;)

The re rolls take a while to get used to, but I think they relate well to the ebb & flow of battle that we read about. Visually spendid, those mass 6mm units really are effective as a birds eye view and the close ups. Well done Crusty! more please!👍

13:26 that's purdy!!

You said, "The rules are fairly detailed, and it takes a lot of getting used to." in a reply to a comment elsewhere here. I'd like to know, and it might be too early to say - so fair enough if so, but is all that detail providing anything of substance (making a better game experience) beyond what, say, 2x2 Napoleonic provides? I am enjoying watching the game, as always, but it feels watching that it's a bit fiddley.

Very nice table and minis - I like the way you keep all the dice rolling in the video and fast forward through the movement. I did notice one rules issue at 16:50, when you fired the skirmishers at the artillery. There was an enemy skirmish unit near the artillery unit, and I think it was supposed to take the first casualty (pg 63).

Great looking table and really enjoyable battle to watch,the Russians looked a little outclassed today but enough lived to fight another day

Very nice ....but not in favour of rerolls, time wasted :( I use a re roll only when an ADC and or a General with but not using GdA.

Looks great, superb table and great looking battle...haven't played this one yet, but looks interesting!

This was a year's worth of good news for us.

Good show. Thank you.

Lots of interesting stuff to look forward to. Your channel is excellent! Subscriber count well deserved, many more will come. Cheers!

Best of luck sticking to a plan for 2025! Somehow, i find it very hard to manage anything like that. I am much too easily led astray into new projects .... by people who make great game videos using Fighting Sail, for exsmple😂! Anyway, I am looking foward to your (projected) year ahead's output, esp your 1807, N Africa and the 1066 projects. i remember a group of us recreating Hastings, decades ago, using Dave Millwards Gods Acre rules. The Normans were sent scurrying back to the brunt out wrecks of their ships on the Wessex coast!

Thank you for everything.

I have ignored your planner as best I could. Clearly a bit of work has gone into it, but I love a surprise! The tanks look great to my eye for the little guys, rumbling forward as one on their lovely little bases!

Nice, so much to look forward to, your channel is top notch IMHO, keep up the great work.

Hallooo! 1) Do a video on how you made that map! Pleae. 2) For the WW2 North Africa, Peter Pig just released a "2025 PBI". Would love to see that get some love and see how it plays out via one of your great campaign vblog styles! 2a) FiveCore Company Command -or- FiveCore Battalion Commander!!! I'll even gift you the rules on Wargaming Vault if you'd like! 3) Glad to hear that though there might not be campaigns and things, there is still possibility for further 2x2 Napoleonics and other things I have come to watch and love. 4) A request for 2026? I would love to see someone play "Blown Away" - an obscure Napoleonic (but I guess any rank/file era really) 'Skirmish' (?) game that is free. (Obscure meaning it is HARD to find online, but is truly free, meaning it's not a pirated thing. Author just has a webpage in amongst a bunch of other non-gamey pages)

I first discovered your channel watching the Saxon v Vikings games using Age of Hannibal rules and followed your channel ever since. I think most wargamers are butterflies. For your WW2 desert games can I suggest either Rommel or the newer Eisenhower rules both by Sam Mustafa for big Division and Corps size desert battles. Looking forwards to watching your videos over the coming year.

Absolutely loving your channel! I have no idea what game led me to your channel, but you play a bunch of games I love (Sharp Practice, Dux Britaniarum and Silver Bayonet well really almost everything you play, I enjoy myself it seems). I also just got an order of ships from Tumbling Dice after watching your Fighting Sail games. Seems just the type of beer and pretzels game someone who grew up regularly visiting the USS Constitution would love to play! I look forward to the games you're playing this year and wish you good health and great fun! Thank you!

I recommend Blitzkrieg Commander for your WW2 Desert campaign. That with a couple of house rules regarding stacking damage and artillery scatter will probably do you fine for an evening's gaming!

I came for the silver bayonet, and stayed for the puns...But seriously, I think your butterflying is actually a nice feature and not a bug. You have exposed me (us???) to many other eras, campaigns, rule sets and miniatures I wouldn't normally consider and now I have to exert great mental discipline not to follow you down that rabbit hole and remain focused on my own niche. Thank you and I look forward to seeing new content.

For the WW2 project, Rommel, Blitzkrieg Commander or Fistful of TOWs 3 could do.

Great presentation, thank you. Even with my fairly quick deterring health I'm still able to watch your programs. Thank you for making me happy.

Nice catch up video and some great games to look forward to in the future, keep up the good work 👍

Looking forward to everything you're planning for this year.

Nothing wrong with being a butterfly, it’s a hobby so should never become a chore. For my money, your’s is one of the best channels around. A great combination of good research, good game systems and regular output.

The trailing French ship should have been named the Escargot!😂 I recently ran across your channel - subscribed and looking forward to more salty adventures!! I really like the ruleset, except that the wear maneuver seems such an abrupt one, especially for first rate ships!

What a terrific report! And an interesting ruleset.

They certainly are quick play. Great game. The Admirals names... LOL!

Most excellent

The dice gods were not kind to Nippon's ships this time. Better fortune next encounter....
