Hi Nigel,

If you rig the basic plastic ships per the rule book and glue on the sails and ratlings well they are very robust. I’ve dropped a plastic brig off the table onto a wood floor and it was completely unscathed.

The larger metal/resin ships are a bit more delicate as white metal is always free to bend. I’ve heard some people make their own…[Read more]

It’s a boost to morale, so affects any morale based test. (so both in your example, order test and morale check).

If on FB or discord drop them a DM with your email address as I’ve had mine end up in their spam system before….

I generally leave it 2 days if I’ve not had an auto response (its happened twice) I contact one of the team via FB and they look into where the emails gone.

You’ve hit on 2 subjects which come up a fair bit over on the wardroom facebook group, and Warlord have (unfortunatly in my opionion) ‘doubled down’ on by not acknowleging the issue(s) and saying they’re all fine in the FAQ:

Points – dispite the comment on page 129 saying its balanced for pickup games, they are only any good as a rough guide……[Read more]

Well, UPS admited: it’s lost in transit. They tell me to contact WL costumer services. I’m up to my hair with this. Just sent another email to WL (number 4 regarding this issue, no answer to the other three) and will wait for more time until WL decides I’m worthy of a reply. Or maybe someone in WL will, accidently, read this post and remembers…[Read more]

Wow, that makes those big planes really good… almost to good for their points.

And while we are at it, the DD for the B17 is very much over the top. Wouldnt it be “more realistic”, or better playable that the carpet bombs hit better, because they may bombard a greater field. 16DD with heavy are for every ship a death sentence … (statistical 4…[Read more]

Yes,

Against tough or very tough flights all the hits need to come from the same weapon system (so 1 ship basically) at the same time – so calling tough 2 HP is a bit wrong, its more that tough counts the first hit as a miss.
However dont forget that DP only fires when the ship fires in the gunnery phase not in the defensive fire step when the AA…[Read more]

Thanks! That’s exactly what I was looking for.

Hi, while we are at that. The AA batteries only do 1 dmg on flights. But the DP guns just kill a flight regardless of its 1 or 2 or 3 hp?

Thanks for your time.

p107, Vehicles, Shooting at Vehicles, Hits From HE Shells, first para, first sentence “… the template is placed as close as possible to the centre of the vehicle.” and second para, first sentence “If a vehicle is caught under the template of an HE shot directed at a different unit, always use the front armour value of the vehicle as the vehicle…[Read more]

A few more pics attached. Also, for anyone who was iffy on whether or not to do decals, do them. It’s not as hard as I thought it would be, and I am by no means an expert.

Update- Still very much into BA, been busy painting a lot of my US Airborne miniatures as well as some starting to build some terrain/buildings. Gotten several days worth of games in with some friends and have ironed out alot of the kinks with rules, but still learning every day new rules or rules that were misinterpreted. Here are some pictures…[Read more]

I just recently built up a Soviet Army and I’m hoping to play more often. I just want to play Bolt Action and if someone has both armies I would love to play any theater. I’m out of Oakland CA, but I can travel a few hours to get a game in on weekends. So anywhere between Sacramento to Fresno would be swell. San Francisco, Oakland, and greater Bay…[Read more]
