Love you guys..I need my Battlebois back...I didn't build and paint this necromunda gang for nothin❤
Should do a full length campagin. Bring back indiana jones XD
Just to be one of THOSE TYPES!! I thought I'd inform you ,youve actually got it all wrong about the fabulous PIAT anti tank launcher. Everyone thinks it's just a spring that fired the bomb but it is actually a kind of rocket just like other bazookers etc. It's just that the charge in the bomb that launches it or fires it is set off by the spigot which was like a huge firing pin. It took that much kinetic energy to set the thing off but Instead of firing in a tube making a huge cloud of smoke and blasting anyone behind this mechanism meant you could fire from inside a building for instance, something the bazooka and panzerfausts etc couldnt do! . It was terrible to load, you got that right but it was actually a really effective anti tank weapon. They kept using it right through the Korean war so you know it must have been half decent. Also when it fired there wasn't the tell tale back blast on the firer's position, so it was easier to stay hidden! 😁
Ahhhh that feels better. Just don't tell that Hans about it!! Ah but he's dead , so no worries there.
Crazy hans in german is "Verrückter Hans"
The 2 hours of goodness is genuinely worth it, so good!
"First, shoot the wizard. Then run in and melee-attack the bomb." is pure tactical genius.
Sounds like a round of SS13
He should have said "i try to cut the wire"
@@XMysticHerox No, in that case you melee attack the wizard _with_ the bomb.
should have gone for the melee the wire connecting it.
Well. If shadorun taught me anything it's geek the mage
I really love these bolt action videos with more supernatural or hero based extras, like this one and the Indiana Jones one
agreed. Its fun when someone has an advantage over the dice to make exciting things happen. I prefer balance as well though, which also helps because usually that means a larger defence which looks like a more overwhelming challenge. Also cool to see the baddies win once in a while
I’d be interested to see them use some of the other non-magic konflict 47 stuff (a pulpy magitech expansion to regular bolt action where the zombies from the indiana jones came from). Having a boss fight against one of the mechs or some guys with power armour.
When you have a shiny new fantasy boss monster, but Warhammer night isn't until next month:
What's nice about it is it adds an unknown element for both us and the players
Star wars was my favourite
I can't tell you how much I enjoy watching these
Come and play with us!
Ooh, now that sounds like quite a fun video!
@@dogechannel9933 Would be quite a lot of honking.
Why not?
Thatd be brilliant
"A guy came down a year ago and spent 1 day telling us how to do it, then left. None of us paid attention because we thought it would never happen. "
Yup, it sounds like an army thing alright.
That's actually pretty cool that the reinforcements Pyrion got was a pegasus knight, since that's the insignia of the 1st airborne division.
I love the magic nonsense in these bolt-action games. It honestly adds a perfect level of chaos to an otherwise normal game! I cant wait to run similar games for my friends!
The tiny "Rip Hans" at 15:22 is the level of comical detail I've come to expect on this channel. Well done.
Haha well spotted!
This might be the most enjoyable battle report I've ever watched. The scenarios are so unique, and I love that sometimes even the players don't know what will happen- Ben this is such a kudos to you. But it's also the players inhabiting the little worlds you set up so well, telling such fun stories with such enjoyment. I think, in my opinion, this is the PEAK of what tabletop wargaming can be. So glad we get to watch it.
Rest in Power Hans, the brightest stars burn out the fastest. Games night still out here making the best batreps out there. Fast, well edited and always with some fun twist, keep up the amazing work!
"issuing correction on a previous post, regarding the *silly nazi named Hans. you do not, under any circumstances, 'gotta hand it to them.'"
Funnily enough, the real Battle for Pegasus Bridge had its own 'Piat Pete'. Sgt Thorton of the 6th Airborne fired a Piat round at a Panzer IV reinforcement.
"Thornton’s remarkable shot with the Piat had blocked the road junction and bought precious time for the defenders of the canal bridge. German officers convinced that the British were in possession of anti-tank guns, pulled back to regroup."
The time afforded by this action potentially saved D-Day, if the British paratroopers had lost the bridge and allowed German divisions to flank the beachhead from the east, they would have likely been successful at wiping the Allied forces out.
I absolutely love these Weird War 2 style scenario's Ben keeps throwing our way.
My grandad never talked about his time in the war, but this might explain his 1000 yard stare every time we visited a restaurant that had calamari on the menu.
I'm a simple man. I see Tom and Ben in a battle report with Pyrion and I click. Fast.
There’s definitely something fun about having Ben, P.Flax, and Tom together playing Bolt Action. Love it!
Love how at 6:59, when talking about the Tetrarch, they show a picture of a M22 Locust unloading from a glider. Classic Yogscast
The yogscast guarantee
Or how they said units didn't normally have chaplains. Yes they did
@@tallleprechaun1318 The guy in BoB walking around giving lasts rites as bullets whizz past comes to mind. "Crazy Irish!"
@@tallleprechaun1318 not on a covet mission
With how many limbs regular soldiers were able to remove from the squid, it seems the Great Old Ones were sealed before the invention of gunpowder.
David vs Goliath, amazing! This one was great! I love Tom role-playing the characters, so fun! XD
I love the pulp adventure feel of these supernatural-enhanced bolt action games
My god the Battle for Pegasus Bridge! I learnt about that battle when I visited it and I found it so interesting! However, since then I have struggled to find references to it, so great to see it played out again like this!
did you learn about the squid and the pegasus?
Ended with Triple Dave vs Goliath. Couldn't write it better. Amazing stuff.
Lol being a massive fan of Tom is taking me to some dark places; I'm actually finding myself rooting for the black magic wielding Nazis
Absolutely incredible game ! My favorite bit was the historically acurate Lovecraftian summoning !
IT's always nice to see more educational content. I'm quite excited to learn about the battle of Rat Ogre Crossing.
I cried for piat pete.
and fucking pegasus coming in like gandalf at helm's deep!
fantastic work guys, love these videos.
My favourite Yogs content these days, I think i'm just old now but I hope you guys keep these going.
Literally gasped when I saw tom was battling pyrion. I am eager
I love that Von Drakken has told the same stories enough times that even he's sick of hearing them
pegasus bridge, being attacked by troops with pegasus as their icon, supported by a pegasus knight
Love the humor in all your videos - great fun! One very tiny nit-pick here: the "Tetrarch" shown exiting the glider in the photo is actually an M22 Locust, another light tank (US made) but only used by the Brits in airborne scenarios.
"The longer he spends the better it'll be."
"Okay. Edging."
good god lmfao
I really like the idea of Tom and Ben being like sportscasters for tabletop miniature war games, but instead of commenting on the match being played they kind of just ramble about different ideas involving the match's cannon.
I never play these type of games but always look forward to the next video, they are so enjoyable
“The Tetrarch” m22 locust picture 😂 love it
These videos are getting better and better! The added practical effects simulating smoke and fire are a really nice touch as well.
Love the video! The little chapter titles are also hilarious and on point!
Absolutely sensational lads, hope you manage to viably keep making these as the passion is plain to see.
I feel sincerely robbed that I was never taught about this battle in history class.
These just keep getting better and better! I really enjoy these battle reports 🙌
I love that the lads doesn’t know what’s gonna happen with their own summons! Makes it more authentic from a commanders POV. Would have liked to see what Pyrion could have gotten with more cubes! 😁
Beautifully set up and edited, plus you can really tell you guys had a blast! great video
'Light tank Mk VII Tetrarch'
Shows an M22 Locust
It doesn't matter. It hasn't mattered for 80 years. It will never matter again.
These are so good. The format is perfect. Thanks
Really fun to watch, love the editing.
I like how this normal WWII battle was interrupted by a 5 minutes Cthulhu fight, then immediately just went back to a WWII fight like it never happened.
As an american who grew up watching monty python and fawlty towers, this show scratches that dry british humor itch just right. I also love whoever your graphics person is, that spring grenade plinking away was very funny.
There are always the best! Love these story driven stories with the game driving it!
35:24
This rejected episode of deadliest warrior is truly wild
Great video as always, This was a really fun one. I'm so happy they started doing these videos, can't wait for the next one.
These Games Night videos are so incredibly well made. Every one so far has been added into my best favorites playlist. You guys are awesome.
This series is so utterly amazing. The attention to detail, the way that the game is carefully crafted to accurate recreate historical events while maintaining a level of randomness and intrigue is just the best.
But for real, this is hilarious and awesome. Keep up the good work, guys!
Yes! Been waiting for this! This series got me into painting miniatures. Love all your work!
Absolutely loved this video! Great banter between the two guys, please make more videos with them!
I LOVE these bolt action battle reports, I just got into it and this is the best, please keep making great bolt action content its so great!
These Bolt Action videos have quickly become a favorite series of mine! Keep em coming!
I think my favourite thing is genuinely Tom's ability to inject goofy characters and background narratives in a way that is just the right side of quirky and endearing. You take an already enjoyable tabletop battle recap and suddenly you have the Tragedy of Diligent Hans, the inexperienced bomb experts, D-Day fake news Nazis and the dark wizard Von Drachen.
Genuinely the best part of every month, thank you so much
I love these videos! They're so hilarious and entertaining! Great job! 👍
I'm quite new to the game and am currently watching through all of your guys' vids, and I must say - I've never seen Bolt Action presented in such an exciting and engaging way. I'm really enjoying trawling your back-catalog, and it's giving me lots of ideas for future games. Ta very much!
I love watching these big battles. You guys do a great job keep it up.
I am LOVING these videoes! My Brothers and I are watching these every time a new one comes out, thank you for bringing these back! And I love having Ben as the game master!
these are always such a genuine delight to watch; I had a big dumb smile the whole video through watching Hans, and Piat Pete, and [REDACTED]
You’re all fantastic
I love the little practical effects for explosions itd only be better with a paper and magic marker sign that said "kaboom" or something 😂
Loving all these videos, please keep em coming
15:50 What did you expect? The tetrarch is a reserve vehicle while the puma has a BR of 3.3!
Great video as always. Love the banter between you all.
LOVE these videos! Keep them coming :)
I loved this. One of the best you've made. I genuinely think these are the best wargame vids on youtube
That was excellent. Keeps on surprising and delighting me with the quality of this batreps :)
I for one can't wait for the battle for Minotaur bridge, in this ongoing bridge series.
I love this style of battle reports! Great work
God these are so GOOD! I cant stop raving each vodeo that drops!
these always rule, but the supernatural twist cracked me up. Excellent work guys
This is pure gold. Ty guys.
This is so good, well done guys !
This is absolutely amazing! I love this series :D
Loved the game and the style of these videos!
Not to drop a glider on the video, but the image for the Tetrarch at 7:00 is an M22 Locust loading/unloading into a Hamilcar Glider.
Man the production value on this one was great!!! Also the battle was hilarious, Ser Pegasus and his trusty human said the day!
Im so happy you guys are back, love your bolt action vids
I love, LOVE the squid’s paint job!!
I've never played the game but love these condensed bolt action videos
Brilliant... been waiting ages for a vid from you guys.
Always a great batrep
I love these battle reports!
Literally been waiting for this. Hooray 😊
That was awesome! Such a fun game to watch. Excellent editing, great players, and ofc a wonderful GM
Really enjoyed this! Would love more
Brilliant video love pyrion and Tom combo too love this channel so much thank you Ben and everyone involved!
Love the editing with SFX and historical photos. 10/10 will be singing about Hans staring down a tank forever.
Been binging these. These are so entertaining I think I might just become a member to see the full cuts.
Thanks for the video! Love watching your games!
These videos are some of the best content on TH-cam. Good job, Ben and friends!
Great video. Loved the game. I could honestly watch you guys play a campaign of any wargame.
Great vid, really love the overview at the start of turn 11, if that could happen for most turns it would really help with keeping track of units.
These are so entertaining I drop everything to watch these. These 3 are like magic together anything they to is spectacular!
Bolt action? Yes please!
Tom? Yes please!!
These videos are an absolute gem, love the atmosphere and entertainment.
God yeah, feels so great that these are made possible by members. So worth it
Fantastic showing. Some of the best content on TH-cam.
Thank you for running this ben.
I liked the grail knight and giant squid additions.
Pflax's win streak has ended.🎉😂🎉😂.
