I have noted that.

I may make my figures run backwords, just for a laugh.

Capt Scarlett replied to the topic Breakthrough scenarion query in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 1 month ago

We played that right then.

I think the quarters deployment make things a bit more of a challenge.

SteveT started the topic 3rd vs 2nd in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 1 month ago

I am wondering if it’s worth buying 3rd or not. I am thinking not but…

I’m interested in the opinions and findings of those who have played both sets

From the 8 or so games I have seen on videos it, 3rd seems to produce more erratic outcomes and needs more rolling.

Hello Warlord designers,

I hope you read these posts as well as players.

As you develop Epic ACW figures here is what I would hope you will make. Please take notes.

1. U.S. Colored Troops – Infantry, Cavalry and Artillery. Facial features of “white” soldiers don’t match those of “black” soldiers. i.e. They don’t have zz top beards.

2. Sailors…[Read more]

Thanks again Stuart for taking time to read and answer my queries. I am enjoying my games of Bolt Action 3.

Stuart Harrison replied to the topic Breakthrough scenarion query in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 1 month ago

Breakthrough doesn’t allow reserves.
Fog of War requires half of your force (rounded up) to be placed in reserve.

That is the conflict between the two. The other two deployment types allow reserves, Fog of War requires it.

Stuart Harrison replied to the topic infantry arc of fire query in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 1 month ago

Default is a 360 degree arc. Fixed limits the arc for some infantry and most artillery weapons. Vehicles weapon arcs are specified on the weapons line of their entries.

Bart Garey replied to the topic Artillery Observers and Air Observers in Open Topped Transports in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 1 month ago

I ask this question to Warlord Games. Here is the Q&A

Q. Can Forward Observers call in Arty/Air strikes while in an open toped vehicle? (The question is HQ abilities vs not giving Fire order to passengers). I believe they can still spot for other on board artillery/mortars while in open top vehicles.

Can artillery/mortars Spotters spot from…[Read more]

Sorry to be Mr loadsa questions. I did try to search the forum for an answer. But do infantry and their weapons other than fixed weapons have an arc of fire? I ask because in my game last night a vehicle target appeared to the rear of a deployed AT rifle. When the AT rifle is activated can it just turn round with a fire action and shoot without…[Read more]

I’m quite enjoying the new BA3 battle scenario generator. However I note that with the Breakthrough page 165 it says if you roll for ‘Fog of War’ Deployment you have to re-roll because reserves are not allowed for this breakthrough object. But I note the deployment types allow reserves! Surely the reason for not allowing Fog of War is because the…[Read more]

OK I’m running a tournament at Battleground 2024! Scramble! BRS at Battleground 2024 and I need some more bloody players or Douglas Glover and the rest of the Lead Pursuit team will frankly point, laugh and use some “hilarious” memes at us Brits for not being able to organise a p*ssup in a brewery.

Mark replied to the topic Soviet Lend Lease tanks in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 1 month ago

Thanks!

been looking at trying to find a tank with the same pts in the Soviet list and using that as a proxy for now.

luckily for me I’am the guy in charge of Bolt action at my local club so I can get away with ALOT!🤣

Nat replied to the topic Soviet Lend Lease tanks in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 1 month ago

Lend-Lease stuff is probably going to wait till next October with the armies of book 🙁

till then I’d use a British armoured pltn as a lend-lease armd pltn to add the Shermans & Churchills. (British shermans can workout about 5pts more expensive than the US ones..)

(I’ve already got my local clubs agreement to do that with my lend-lease shermans)

Nat replied to the topic Missing Parts in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 1 month ago

WL have a very good customer service dept… best off emailing them even if you dont require the part so that they’re aware

also include the name on the packing slip (if you still have it) & where you got it from incase its a batch issue rather than just misfortune that you and your mate had the same thing missing.

As a side note I had a scout…[Read more]

Its not a problem for me as I have a very deep parts box , but new comers to the hobby might feel different . Check your molds Warlord

I currently have a Churchill and Sherman both painted in Soviet colours and am struggling to get em in my army using the warlord app!

OR you can wait till the end of January and get hold of the new armies of Germany book which could change your mind with what you want to build.

Great idea I might wait and see. Thanks for the input.

Stuart Harrison replied to the topic Calculating morale bonus and pin in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 1 month ago

The maximum/minimum is applied after ALL modifiers, not between the positives and the negatives. “Regardless of how many pin markers it has, or how many bonuses or penalties apply, a unit cannot have a morale value of more than 11, or less than 2.” (p71, Orders, Order Tests, last para before the ‘At Full Strength’ sub heading, and repeated p73,…[Read more]

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Hi,</p>
In my gaming group(we are all pretty new to bolt action) we have an differant point of view regarding how to calculate moral.

Example:

Regular:9

Pin:-3

Company commander:+4

So we were told to calculate it in the following way: 9-3+4=10 morale

Some of our player argues that we should calculate the bonus…[Read more]
