Super cool video, made me feel really good to see some lovely American family times - just like Kiwis! On the game, I find the squares off putting but I’m going to try the rules anyway!
Awesome to see. 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻Please do a tutorial on how to play Fire at Sea. I know that you have covered it a little in past videos, but it would be awesome if you were to do a full video on how to play and the different mechanics of the game. 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻
We'll find the German battleship that's makin' such a fuss We gotta sink the Scharnhorst cause the world depends on us Hit the decks a-runnin' boys and spin those guns around When we find the Scharnhost we gotta cut her down
I am currently reading 'A game of Birds and Wolves', about the Western Approaches Command, and the UBoat threat to convoys (by Simon Parkin - highly recommended). Could these rules be use for submarine and hunter pack games?
Coughka, I'm working with Mark to create submarine warfare rules and scenarios for Fire at Sea as we speak. It will be called Death From Below. Hoping to have it ready before Christmas. I'm totally gonna check out "A Game of Birds and Wolves." I've been devouring Battle of the Atlantic literature all summer. Thanks for the recommendation.
@@christopherhunt1957 Thank you for this great reply. This may well be the first naval game I try. These videos are a good starting point th-cam.com/video/lVWw628Mkac/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/fVet82IUAqQ/w-d-xo.html ..
The real battle was played in the depths of an Arctic winter night, when the sun never shone. The Scharnhorst was afraid to switch on its radar (they thought it would result in their detection by the British) and got surprised by the British ships, which weren't afraid to use their radar. Interesting to see a scenario where the Germans might have had some chance of winning, but given their lack of destroyers and their rules of engagement, the Germans didn't stand a chance.
Great battle report gentlemen. The BBC did a great documentary on the Scharnhorst in the 70s with some fascinating 1st hand accounts if anyone wants to find out more about the star of this battle (th-cam.com/video/iMruFhUuwXY/w-d-xo.html).
I feel like this is the most wholesome thing I am going to encounter all day, and perhaps all week.
Occasionally we like to make up for our Scotch drinking and debauchery with some wholesome family fare!
Goes to show you can have fun with a simple set up and a great location. Kudos Mark and fam!
HA! Just played Columbia Games Gettysburg in my hotel room on the slope of Cemetery Hill
A most excellent place for such a game! Playing games like that on location is an awesome experience and adds a new level of appreciation.
Love Cape May. Favorite place to vacation and the concrete ship is really interesting.
Hi Mark lovely to see you all. Excellent video. Thanks for sharing.
Great game, always good to hear my local cities mentioned by Americans (Sheffield)! 😂😂
This is so wholesome and cute. I love it.

Awesome video.Would be cool if u guys can do the Battle of Borodino :)
You can visit HMS Belfast if you are ever in London - she is still going strong!
I saw the brandy wine video
you posted it for like a hour I left the battle of Kedash comment on my sisters account
The Royal Navy does NOT fail morale!!!!
In 4 roles of 2 dice a 1 came up 6 times lol
Great entertainment. I wondered, could the rules be used for WW1 as I have several navies in 1.3000 scale?
I wish you lived or visited Florida so I could play games with you oh well I'm going to try to come to historicon next year
the minis are pretty, but the rules are (way too?) simple -- certainly plays fast
Man this kid keeps stealing, Little wars tv

RIP Scharnhorst, 1968 men found their early grave that day.
