somewhere, midwinter minis is screaming into a pillow right now
He has ancestral grievances from the channel islands being occupied
Oh gawd!
My tummie!! 🤣
Good
I don't know yelling at the early and mid war sets for being early and mid war sets is like buying a tractor for a pet and being mad it can't do backflips.
Wintergermans are Great. 48 Minis are Great. A Transport and a Panzer 4. I started with the Grenadiers and it was a great Kit.
Why do all those Imperial Japanese Bamboo Spear Fighters have guns..... and blue eyes..... and keep yelling back at me in German?
Keep the new bolt action coming. 😅 finally cracked and sub'd.
Excellent video and very informative!
As always, love the BoltAction content Sah! still awaiting coverage of the glorious Type 3 Ka-Chi boat tank. I remember getting the Blitzkrieg starter set years ago, good kit but sad to see it killed by the price increase.
Hello, do you habe experience on how people react to using warlord Bolt Action as Imperial guard for 40k? I honestly dont like cadians, but i loved the idea of your infantry guard army😅😁
Soviet infantry (particularly the winter infantry/Siberian veterans) are perfect for Valhallans, you could even get away with Soviet tanks for IG armour in friendly games. For Cadian replacements probably the best options are gonna be US mariens or Rangers, but Soviet helmets might work as well.
The Japanese are, rules wise, very much like the "standard" IG because they are a mass attack army that doesn't mind losing individuals, likewise for soviets, to a slightly lesser extent, and Japanese kitbashed with US Marines and/or Australian models would make really good catachan.
The best starter army is the one that you are interested in surely?
If you’re into the history, buy the army that fits, if you’re into competitive play, then why are you buying a starter army?
The reason that the are no Panzerfausts and Stg44’s in the Blitzkrieg army is that they were issued until 1943/44 and this army represents the German army of 1939/1940. It is supposedly a historical game…
I just recently picked up a blitzkrieg army to play a battle of France campaign with my friend, who is buying the French starter. Despite it being last on the list it’s the best starter army for me. I agree with you that looking at it purely from a game standpoint doesn’t cover all the bases.
I'm looking at this game because I used to play Company of Heroes with my Dad, and I liked playing the panzer elite army using the luftwaffe focus with falchimjaegers.
To this day I still play CoH1: Blitzkrieg Mod. Highly suggest you look into it. Ultra lethal longer range battles with more historically accurate units. Total rework.
@@-BL1NKY where can I find it? Is there a steam workshop or something?
@prestonjohnson1537 yes man. Steam workshop has it I can't use links on TH-cam but look it up. To this day there's even people still playing multi-player. I was once called a noob relentlessly all round as airborne and when I came in clutch they called me a Hacker. I'm the Noob Hacker 🤣🤣
Fantastic ranking - was a bit worried going into it, but honestly I think you're basically spot on for all of them (though I wish Afrika Corps was higher): Winter and Grenadier specifically are so good, and you will use basically everything in all of them. And in fact, the Winter starter set might be one of the best starter sets period across all nations, the more I think about it
Great video, always love to see bolt action
Can’t wait to get into this. Just got 5 guys in my group that are keen. After 20 years of playing my Warhammer. Can’t wait to play a different game!
I'm considering buying another Winter Germans box. You can always use more infantry, plus I want another Maultier and I'm interested in building another variant of the Panzer IV. I might take the leftover infantry I don't need, plus the redundant weapons teams, and make another demo army for the club, or make a 500 point army to domate as a tournament prize.
You have a new sub here!
Can you do a similar themed video for US forces? I've decided it's time to jump into bolt action for 3rd
Stay tuned as those will be posted this month :)
Hey man, your videos have gotten me into bolt action so thank you! Just wondering how you base your German forces? Love the dark green.
As someone looking to get into Bolt Action for the first time later this year, is there ever much interest in playing early-mid war games or is it all about the Panthers, Tigers and bears oh my?
All eras are viable. In my local shop alone there's 6 guys who play the desert and early War in Russia.
Mid-War is actually quite common - it gives you access to a lot of stuff people like (light/medium tanks, most artillery, most small arms), and you don't get as many of the crazy stuff (tanks with rocket launchers on them, for example)
I find North Africa is the most popular at my club. I’m the only one with a late war German Army and I hardly ever use my Panzer 4 let alone a Tiger. I have a Churchill for my late war British and have never used it.
Now SDKFZ 222’s, they are the dogs…
@@JimHurst-UK yeah especially post-FAQ the 222 is SWEEEEET
Thanks guys, really looking forward to getting the show on the road.
Fuck yeah! New Bolt Action content
Do the bloody ANZAC starter army sir, don't bring shame to us sir.
I've been wanting to get into bolt action for ages. I bought the band of brothers set last year, but I never got around to putting it together and painting it as i'm trying to catch up with the rest of my pile of shame but i might wait now till the 3rd edition comes out to see how to do the best bulld for each army the band of brothers comes with. Knowing me i'll also buy a 3rd edition starter set too... Lol
Love the cut off audio at the start - sounds like MG is calling the Germans jerks.
I think the most important aspect is: get whatever starter you like because emotional bond between you and your models is more important than value or strength. Also I call bullshit. Waffen SS army is amazing because it has A FUCKING TIGER! No matter how army building is going to be like, you will be able to include A FUCKING TIGER in your army and that's basically all you need to know.
Rule of cool…. But a Tiger is a serious waste of points and cash in BA2 and probably will be in BA3.
New player question here. Can you get a non-fucking Tiger or is copulation mandatory?
@@Jay-zk7uw
Responsible owners get their Tigers neutered.
Watching through the video just now (much appreciated), and got a question. I just scored a Afrika Korp starter army box for $78 US + tax, still unopened. Would that be on the fairer end of its price-tag, or should I consider alternatives?
The Waffen list makes about 1500pts which means you can make multiple lists.
Falschirmjager got rolled into regular german forces due to being badly used in campaign. You saw a lot more falschirmjager units than pumas in reality
BANZAI !!!!
BANZAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIII
all of these starter boxes are more or less tied to one of 3 phases. The early war, the mid, and the late war. Now much from the mid works in the late. So wich set to get, depends on what phase you will want to play. Now close to every thing from an early phase works fine in the later ones, but late war models not so much in the early, when it comes to weapon options. Models well why not, who really cares. And so playing early war having a lot of assault rifles won't work. You can always proxy assault rifle models for standard weapons, if you don't want to have to buy a seperate box to play early etc etc, atleast that is what i tell my friends.
So the North Africa corps is a great box, i own one, and it good for the entire North Arica + italian campaign. The only box i would never touch is the Blizt krieg, it was never really good to begin with.
If I would get into Bolt Action it would be in 15mm and probably early war.
But that aside, why would early war armies be considered limited? You are not mixing early and late war during matches, right
? 🤔
could you please start adding timestamps to your videos?
You're coming at this from a purely competitive point of view, just building the best force using the generic selector. I find that a bit boring and prefer to do more themed games, either by theatre or selector. The best starter, as others have said, is the one you like the most. I got the late war Grenadiers ages ago but didn't do anything with it. My 2nd one was Afrika Korps, which is built and painted and gets used, as I like the mid war desert setting, you don't get as many cheesy powerful units/tanks, which is refreshing. BTW there is no such thing as a late war PzIII as they ceased production in 43, as the Pz IV could be upgraded with a bigger gun and the PzIII chassis were then used to make Stugs, again with a bigger gun. Also the Warlord/Italeri Pz III isn't that good a kit. I built a couple and sold them, then bought several Rubicon Pz III's, which are much nicer ( Makes the H-N models) and have a proper scale long 50 unlike the oversize one from the Warlord kit.
