Brian Alter replied to the topic Rules Question Thread in the forum Black Powder 4 years, 8 months ago
Hello,
For British Cavalry (in Albion Triumphant Vol2), I see references to a breakthrough move that is required ” even if it takes them off the table” as part of the “Gallop at Anything” rule. I searched both the V1 and V2 rulebooks pdfs and both Albion 1&2 but couldn’t find anything pertaining to what a “breakthrough move” is. Could someone…[Read more]

The metal crew for the plastic 88 look much better than the guys that came with a buddies resin kit , new molds ? Not much of a metal fan so I got both the Italeri and RM guns . I noticed that while you get the transport wheels with the RM kit , the drop legs on the gun platform have the stakes molded in them . And the Italeri kit has the stakes…[Read more]

thats going to cause problems….. same aircraft with 2 different offical stat cards from different current sources 🙁
Sorry but the BoM zero should have got the the same as with the card pack and the ‘no stalling’ a ‘named’ equipment upgrade.

HE v Buildings… yep they ignore the -2 cover for being in a building (because they are hitting the building)… so following on yep 2″ v bunker = pins only
Yep the rules dont say anything (that I can see on a quick flick through) about not applying PINs or limiting them
Assaulting any building has to be done through entrances … so windows,…[Read more]

I finally got to the RM’s 88. As mentioned before, anyone of these plastic kits (Italeri/Warlord, Rubicon Models) would be a great addition to anyone’s collection. These are so much better than the older/resin metal kits for multiple reasons. That being said, I like how the RM kit give you the wheels and lots of extra stuff like fired shells,…[Read more]

I’ve not had a chance to compare the physical models however the A6M2 is a totally new sculpt and it has different stats, including the new “No Stalling” trait. The main visual difference is the A6M2 has longer wings, and the A6M5 has three visible exhaust pipes each side at the edge of the engine cowling.

Nice to read as usual.
As the newsletter just provide more details about the content I just noticed that the Zero are M2 while the one available since BoB release are M5.
Models are obviously different sculpts as the new are made of Warlord Resin but I don’t know if there’s much visual difference (as far as I know the main upgrades were engine and guns).

Steiner replied to the topic Attacking bunkers in the forum Bolt Action 4 years, 8 months ago
Thanks, Nat. This is getting clearer now!
So, if a medium mortar hits a bunker, it will never cause any kills inside and cannot destroy it because it is a HE 2″ weapon, D6 and you need at least 12 points (2D6) or more.
What about the pinning? Do I still roll a D3 to pin the soldiers inside?
Thanks

Nat replied to the topic Attacking bunkers in the forum Bolt Action 4 years, 8 months ago
Yes bunker = a -4 cover mod so snipers (& flamethrowers) ignore it!
Most shooting at bunkers is hail marys (aka 7+ to hit… :p 6 followed by a 6)HE… can always target buildings ignoring cover mods!.. however you dont get to roll damage against models inside, & you need 12 hits to bring a bunker down…. so 3 or 4″ template only
Other me…[Read more]

Dear Comrades,
We have some questions.
It is the first time we are playing with bunkers, the bunkers give you a plus 4 of cover protection but the sniper ignores all covers, so can the sniper shoot through the slits of the bunker?
The second question is you always need double sixes because of the plus 4, so if you get in point blan you on…[Read more]
