  • Join Rich from Too Fat Lardies and our own Justin as they tackle a scenario from the Blitzkrieg 1940 book released earlier this year for Chain of Command.
    The Going With A Bang scenario involves a group of French resistance fighters attempting to blow up two key culverts to impede the approaching first wave Nazi forces.
    Have you played any Blitzkrieg scenarios?

      You're absolutely mental. Game is so skewed towards attackers that being the defender is an exercise in absolute futility.

    • @Nazgull2k1
      @Nazgull2k1 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      as an example, the attacker can choose to take a fucking Panzer Tank.. the defender can choose.. a terrain piece, a LMG emplacement, or a guy with a brick in his hand.

      @@Nazgull2k1 Support is scenario based. For example, a patrol scenario, each player rolls a 1d6. On a roll of 1or 2 select from list 1, 3 or 4 from list 2, 5 or 6 from list 3. Players can't choose entrenchments, static defences or preliminary bombardments. Lists 1-3 include supports from Demo teams, Medic, adjutant, Bazook/Pzschrek & senior leader to light armoured cars & an extra infantry squad. In addition, where forces have an initial imbalance in force ratings, the weaker force is compensated for by allowing the weaker force to select support from a higher list. See page 72 of the rules.

    I love this game and the game scale : for instance 15mm miniatures the ground scale is correct for the miniature size, also if you use 6mm miniatures and use centimetres instead of inches, again the ground scale works out about right.
    Meaning buildings vehicles and infantry don’t distort the look of the game I like the set up of the jump off points means forward planning can be advantageous showing just how a brilliant plan may not survive contact with the enemy.
    I suppose planning in depth might help you to recover from a poor dice roll. 😂 or not. 😩.

    I like how Justin used legit tactics, and the game makes it work well. Normally you have the pl 2IC man the fire base while the pl cmd leads the assault, prefferably in a flanking maneuver. Watching it come together was great, as well as tense as both sides were teatering on defeat.

  • @marcrenouf2470
    @marcrenouf2470 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I always love seeing Lardie games on BoW! It's great that the game rewards the use of period tactics - Justin's flanking movement was pretty much a textbook example of fire and maneuver, and his keeping focus on the engineers turned what was looking like a bitter defeat into a come-from-behind victory.

    Rich missed a trick here....when the Germans doubled 13" across the open ground they should have deducted points for their shock - which would have left them sat in the open...and when they fired he didn't deduct for the shock either

      @thattassiewargamer 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I agree. Richard even asked him for his instructions and he replied with "Shimmying around"??? Richard just sighed and bit his tongue. That tank would have needed to do two 90 degree turns to get there, which is a bit much on a single dice roll.

    need to know how it works so I can build/buy a well rounded army/platoon ?

    • @PLASMAMATE
      @PLASMAMATE 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, armies are what the different countries had historically and then you have supply points that you can use to choose support weapons (tanks, AT guns, engineers, more sections, etc). There is a cavalry option for Russians : they can play mounted or dismounted

  • @isitanos
    @isitanos 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    A nice watch overall, but I felt there were a lot of unrealistic events and tactics:
    - The van hadn't turned around in advance to move quickly to the engineers' next target
    - AT gun waiting for the commander to shout at it to take shots at the tank closing in on them... if anything you'd need to order them around to *prevent* them from shooting or running away.
    - An MG team in the second story building at the road corner would've laid down some serious hurt on the forest and road german positions and made the "tactical" manoeuvre of units entering in the open wholly impractical.
    - The prevalence of units popping into existence close to enemy units and somehow still getting the first shot... I could understand if they were flanking or something, but this is a bit too much. Overall the lack of reaction fire is a bit grating.
    So, not convinced by the system.

    • @PLASMAMATE
      @PLASMAMATE 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If the enemy is too close to the Jump up point, you cannot use it and if a turn passes (3 six results on your command dice role) the enemy can capture your Jump up points and you lose morale.
