Hello. Does hedgehog formation fight cavalry with all pikemen and musketeer bonuses? that is, the HtH dice of the pikemen x2, plus the HtH dice of the musketeers (15dice). Of course in the first round of the fight.

Are you using a generic platoon or a specific TL from a campaign book? if so which one?
Are you just using FFL squads or are you putting FFL crew on weapon /artillery teams?
But going off the Free French TL from the western deset
1 x vet 1st LT + bodyguard
1 x 6 man legion squad (3 SMGs & VB launcher)
2 x 6 man legion squd + pistol legionnaire…[Read more] -

Greetings.
Does anyone have any experience running a Foreign Legion list? I’m really wanting to get a list on the table, but every time I start putting one together I get to “Eh, not worth the time/effort/money” pretty quickly. No great options for mobile platforms that can put out good firepower; Legionnaires look cool, but the list seems…[Read more]

Cliff C replied to the topic Captain Kim’s Recon Patrol in the forum Bolt Action 3 years, 1 month ago
Thanks that’s what I’m thinking too. The original author was probably trying to emulate the skirmish rules before they were invented with the relaxed 1 inch rule.  But still seems to need a game master German player with randomized movement/actions.
The real action was amazing because it was conducted in broad daylight. Capt Kim and PFC Akah…[Read more]

See if you can get a copy of firefight (Academey of Street Fighting – Bolt Action:firefight on the Warlord store)- which is the half a dozen models aside version of Bolt Action.

Scenario 2 – Captain Kim’s Recon Patrol
Captain Young Oak Kim’s daring recon raid to capture German soldiers for intelligence is the stuff of legend. Five lightly armed Nisei snuck of the Anzio beachhead, past enemy frontline outposts and into the rearguard using nothing more than wheat fields and drainage ditches for cover. Once there, they…[Read more]

I live in Hawaii where the 100th Infantry Battalion is a big deal. I got into Bolt Action because of the nisei figures and the sample scenarios because I wanted to use the game to educate kids about what their grandfathers went through. I was just contacted by the family of the soldier who went on Captain Kim’s patrol and I think they’d like to…[Read more]

SteveT started the topic Splitting Epic Bases in the forum Black Powder 3 years, 1 month ago
I am toying with the idea of getting the Epic scale Napoleonic.
Looking at the standard way they supply infantry I cannot really see how they would form squares, or allow many changes in formations such as line vs column unless each regiment was made of many bases. I read some people cut each strip of infantry in half. Is that realistic? I…[Read more]

Hi All,
I’ve just joined a local group that have started with Epic Napoleonic’s, they was an interesting conservation starter posted.
I haven’t tried yet but apparently cavalry hang over the front and back of the 20mm wide bases so 60 x 30mm bases have been suggested.
Also for the look it’s been suggested heavy cavalry use 6 minis per stand…[Read more]

Stuart Harrison replied to the topic Mortar hits a Bren Carrier in the forum Bolt Action 3 years, 1 month ago
Pen modifiers (top, side, rear, long range) only apply when heavy weapons hit armoured vehicles – no effect vs soft skins.
Open topped only affects armoured vehicles, so no change on the damage results chart from that.
You are correct that superficial damage doesn’t apply for soft skins so if you match the damage value with your roll to damage…[Read more]

Sniper team is also a small unit, so you’re on 7+ to hit – requires a 6 followed by a 6.
Other than that, looks correct.
