Bolt Action 3rd Edition Demonstration

Version 3 Battle Report ready for release date 28th September 2024. As one of the fortunate play testers this was filmed approx 10 weeks prior to release so some aspects may have changed slightly but you will definitely get the idea.

I’ve been following all the hype online, but you can’t beat a battle report, which demonstrates how the new game will play out. Large static infantry teams, lots of mortars, tanks still as useless as V2, but cheaper to take? Where are we going? Have they created a WW1 game? Looks like old 40K players might be interested, but for me the jury’s still out. Great report, very informative and just what we needed with only a couple of weeks to release. Thank you guys

@@blackdragonminiatures you’re most welcome, I’m really looking forward to the tournament in October, it’ll be interesting to see how V3 develops …..

Bolt Action is one of those games I really enjoy but don't have a chance to play it nearly enough and am terrible at it (haha). Wondering how Konflict '47 would look with the V3 release of BA.

@@cjanquart I’ve only played conflict 47 a few times, I really love the reaction order stage in this game, so in all honesty, I’m not sure.

You should employ a dice tray.
Otherwise, good battle report. Thank you for sharing!

Wow, I wrote and played a 1K list with 20 Order dice against my mate's French 29 order dice list. Hearing you say 10 and 12 dice makes me think you've gone very thematic. Thanks for the vid

@@arkenhemnall6224 just going with a balanced non min max list for the video don’t get me wrong I used to run a 30plus Japanese and stalingrad list in V2

[@arkenhemnall6224]

@@blackdragonminiatures 30 plus is just disgusting, well done 🤣😎, I'd say that'll be more than possible using 30+ in v.3. I'm playing a friend shortly and written a 9 OD list at 750pts with a Panzer IV and 3 half tracks, it'll be a challenge.... 😬

Looks Great!

[@cjanquart]

Pinning is much different. I get the elimination of many modifiers but really miss the small team modifier so better screen your leaders. Army composition will take me a while to bend my head around. MG teams might be worth it and interesting take on half firepower of MGs on moving vehicles. Would've liked to see something with pinned units getting assaulted.
I'm liking that "Captain America" marker!

[@pennypenland2390]

So an unarmored truck takes fire from an infantry squad, a machine gun, and a tank while taking no damage? I'm not liking that rule.

What is the cost of the M10 and the Sherman ?

[@boltactiontutorialsbybomor3846]

10 dice at 1250😮😮😮😮

[@danko90]

Tanks are a joke in this game

[@blackdragonminiatures]

In fairness this game has never really been about the tanks, if you took a tank in V2 and your opponent didnt it was very hard to get your points back, they are a lot cheaper in V3 😉
