Nanashi started the topic Have cost formulas been revealed or reverse-engineered? in the forum Bolt Action 3 years, 6 months ago

Units forced to stack mutually exclusive “upgrades” aside (like replacing SMG with LMG, replacing transport with MMG), unit costs in Bolt Action are fairly consistent: An unarmored, unarmed, wheel transport that moves three people will cost the same no matter what model it is unless it has some special property, the same for a light tank with a…[Read more]

“A force for a skirmish game “cannot include […] Artillery (i.e. field artillery, anti-tank guns and anti-aircraft guns)”. ”

There are three basic types of units in the game, Infantry, Artillery, and Vehicles. In this case, the list is sub types/classes of Artillery. The Sahariana is not Artillery, it’s a Vehicle.

Stuart Harrison replied to the topic Non-open top transports other than the French? in the forum Bolt Action 3 years, 6 months ago

Campaign: Road to Berlin has a Polish Home Army modified SdKfz 251 with enclosed roof (p56), but that’s the only other fully enclosed transport that comes to mind.

France’s Lorraine 38 and Unic P107 are both 7+ armor transports without the open top rule. Are these the only transports in the game that have armor and lack the open top rule?

Greetings all! My name is Robin and I run a hobby youtube channel called Kabin Miniatures. I recently bought my first Warlord Games miniatures when Sláine: Kiss My Axe was released.

1) Rules which work on a unit level are ignored as the game works on the individuals level not squad… (so yes Green is ignored)

2) see 1

I think the rules are clear, the cavalry attack column is the remaining stands behind the Leader stand as per your picture. Not that that make sense, when we play 28mm we have two ranks of six figures.

Richard C started the topic French Epic Battles in the forum Black Powder 3 years, 6 months ago

I purchased the French epic battles starter and the infantry sprues have about 50:50 greatcoats v uniform. I have never been a fan of greatcoat on mini’s to me it’s lazy.

What are ppl doing? Having mixed uniforms in each battalion (hiding greatcoats in the second rank)? I’m thinking of splitting them out and having battalions of greatcoats and…[Read more]

Just roll off for what happens.

You could set up the board for a game, but seriously it would be incredibly one sided in favour of the attacker.

Close Quarters page 50 denotes transport capacity for a number of units. The LCM-3 is noted to transport 30 men or 1 light tank/armoured car/APC or 1 Medium tank/self propelled gun…meaning a typical…[Read more]

Andrew Cree replied to the topic First Impressions in the forum Combined Arms 3 years, 6 months ago

After finding my copy of Close Quarters (the Cruel Seas expansion), turns out they have ‘Invasion Rules’ on page 50.

A Reinforced Platoon would barely be noticeable in VaS. You can fit the standard 1,000pts into about 5 LCM-3s (British/Americans) , a Marinefahrpram (Germany/Italy) or 3 Daihatsu Landing Craft (Japan). Tank War force would be a bit…[Read more]

Green and other abilities like it (Such as Party Indoctrination) trigger “The first time the unit suffers a casualty roll a die.” while in Skirmish a single model “is a unit”. Is Green (and variants that are actually paid for, like Party Indoctrination or Mixed Quality) useless in Skirmish?

Replacements (Fortress Budapest) triggers if “if the…[Read more]

Just wondering if anyone knows what sizes of card sleeves the game requires? I want to sleeve all the cards and they are not Standard NA card sizes.

@legere TBH all you need is a token to go on the table to tell you if the ship has a critical effect…. then laminate the ship card are write the effects on there.
