    Just think, if you were playing 40k rules, one of you could have stood and watched for 30 minutes whilst the other dismantles half their army without response!! 😆 Love the reports and the campaign structure. The rules are perfect for this period. Many thanks and keep up the good work!!

    Damn you Martin. Just when I thought the temptation of building a War of the Roses was over, you slip in with 2 bat reps (and the possibility of a third) and pull me right back in.
    Excellent video as usual.

    Okay, the young man who is leading that armoured cav in turn 7 needs a god damn promotion! Butchers the light cav attacking the wagon, takes fire off the handgunners and retreats to regroup. Then takes off more fire than D-Day AND THNEN recharges up the hill. Valiant is an understatement. Great video as always mate! Really enjoying the background stories coming out of this, plus I like that you're doing the smaller fueds and quabbles

      @@7thson726 am I imagining that handgunners had a rule that would require a breaktest if you took fire from them? Or was that replaced with capping saves at 5?

      @7thson726  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@karlmcbride9265 nope your right, if you take hits from them, even if you save you must take a break test, essentially as if the shooting unit had rolled a natural 6. So either way when the heavy cav charged they would have been taking one, and saves capped at 5+, may have forgotten to apply it in couple of places 🤔😁

    I noticed that you force a breaktest when rolling a single 6 on shooting. The HC rules are that if you need a minimum 6 to hit then two rolls of 6 are needed for the breaktest. If you need a 5 or 6 (or 4,5,6) then a single 6 forces the test.
