I like the idea that every time Dad's Army takes a 'casualty' it is just one of them getting into a comedy predicament where they are unable to participate and the more casualties taken represents more of them trying to help

@@201bio could keep up with the rest of them, lingering behind ever so politely asking in his soft voice. "Oh would you mind I need a moment to catch my breath". The deranged German officer furious to be caught by the elderly and foolish rag tag group manages to slip away to the back whilst his men are all caught or killed, screaming as he takes ol' jones captive. Mannering won't let one of his men die and offers to take jones place as the hostage, jones insists captain Mainwaring shoots the Jerry. As tensions rise as the jerrys backed into the door, pews piled up as barricades, staring wide eyed at the serious face of Captain Mainwaring. Only for the door to open outwards, the pews to fall forward, as the day is saved when Godfrey comes in, "Oh I'm terribly sorry" he says to the officer as he's pinned to the floor by the pews. The lads crowding a shocked Jones who slowly takes down his beret to reveal a hole poking through it from where the officer shot. That's the kind of weird yet heroic ending of a dads army episode XD Mind you, nothing quite beats the actual movie ending, where they take out 3 paratroopers held up in a church having held hostage the actual rotary club. XD

"An old WWI Lewis gun." "No relation" That shouldn't have gotten a giggle, but it quite did.

The constanty swapping Dads Army might be my favourite thing ever. Even more fun is that Lewis is the one who suggested it. Nothing’s better where everyone is just in it for the fun, not to win. I love these battle reports and I hope you never stop making them. When watching I just always have a smile on my face all the way through

I know they were worried about somebody who has never seen Dad's Army would be confused about this on the Triforce, but honestly, having never seen anything of the like, this has been incredible.

This is, genuinely, my favourite format of battle reports on KZread. Just the joy and fun that you chaps exude while playing is so nice to see.

11:26 the image of this one dude watching his entire formation beaten, clubbed and shanked to death by the elderly and then watched the survivors get aniliated in a cloud of 12 gage to remain in composed is hilarious, i like to think its one of those situations where dude isnt holding his ground because hes brave or unshaken but the sheer truma has put him into some kind of PTSD induced autopilot

This has been the best bolt action video yet, it's also the first time I was rooting against Lewis

I like how, if this were real, the British army is just sitting back watching a small militia destroy a German paratrooper regiment

Being a gamer dad approaching 50 with all the decorum and manners a Carter USM fan has, I have fallen in love with this channel. I'll be showing my eldest this and hopefully we'll be cracking out some Bolt Action together soon.

This was incredible I love dad's army so much! In the original Dad's army film the church has actually been taken over by Germans holding the town hostage and they disguise a choir to get close to them to force a surrender

Yogs x Dad's Army is a crossover I never thought I'd see, but this is my video of the year for sure. As Pyrion chooses another Rotary Club to enter the fray and rolls a 1, I can just picture Arthur Lowe muttering "you stupid boy..."

The Dad's Army models seem so fantastically made! And so stupendously comedic, which is perfect for these sorts of games.

Having read some of the rules the Dad's Army section have, holy crap they're BONKERS - Godfrey can reroll his medic check 5/6 times, Jones halves the attacks the enemy get in melee, Walker lets the entire squad shoot twice once per game, and Pike can take up to 6 shots with his Tommy Gun (But it jams permanently if two or more ones are rolled)!

12:27 "Mr. Mainwaring Mr. Mainwaring! We've lost the butterfly spring Mr. Mainwaring!" which i believe was a actual storyline in dads army where fraise accidentally seals one of the Lewis guns main springs in a casket with someone.

These videos are SO GREAT. The editing and pacing of it all makes a multi-hour endeavor like wargaming a perfect video, and Lewis, Ben, and Pyrion are having such a great time playing. The rotating cast of actors is a HILARIOUS bit that I loved immensely. Amazing work, everyone involved!

Even as someone whos never watched Dad's Army, only knows of it, this was an absolute hoot. I think the more goofy approach made it a lot more entertaining, and the joy of you boys playing definitely came through too. Also fantastic editing Tommy B, your additions are an integral and appreciated part of the formula too!

This series has literally gotten me into bolt action and now I go to an old persons home and play on a monday night. You made me into an old man and I'm loving it

I have been waiting so fucking long for this after it kept getting mentioned in the triforce. I love these lewis and pyrion bolt action games so much.

So glad I’ve discovered this channel. I get clickbaited into so many live plays, and lose interest in the majority as they become, for lack of a better word, boring. What this channel is doing though is incredible. The Sharpe episode felt like it could have been a script from the show, the hobbits and ringwraiths was so fun, and this one I will be chuckling over for days to come. The humor, the rule of cool, and using the game to tell a story! Brilliant work everyone involved, and thank you 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I love these games. I know there's a ton of editing needed so thank you all

The rotating members from Dad's Army actually sounds like a neat little rule/ability. Can swap out one model with one of the wounded models, but you can only swap one model.

I love the little Dad's Army figures. Were those an 'official' off the shelf product or were they just made for this video? I do love the swapping of characters as well, even if it's a bit of a cheat. Kinda works like an old school continuity error, like the episode 'Things that go bump in the night' where the exterior scenes have Private Walker but not the studio scenes due to those being filmed after the actor, James Beck's, death.

It was not continuity "error" as such - more a continuity "challenge". If I recall correctly Walker's lines were given to the actor who played the ubiquitous but usually silent Private Sponge.

I loved the moment when, putting their rivalry aside for King and Country, Captain Square and the Eastgate Platoon arrived to reinforce Capt Mainwaring's men!

a dads army episode where they save the local church from germans trying to steal the vicars diary would be class

This needs to become the plot to a remake of Dad’s Army! And I can’t believe Pyrion would even consider letting Jones die (and get retroactively revived)!

I love how the dads army went from old and unfit men to a spec ops crew

I love these, I would never be able to play it so watching you guys tell funny stories along with it is awesome

This is wonderful, I love how they're all so in to it. The pure EMOTION in every dice roll. The shock from the triple 1s the saving grace of the holy 6. It's poetry in film

This was splendid! Excellent editing and narration. Especially appreciated the pictures of the Dad's Army characters, I had no idea who they were talking about 😅

What I really appreciate about the "X hours of game in 30 minutes" format is that it's really good at showing off a game. You get JUST enough snippets of actual play to get an understanding of the mechanics of the game without it dragging on. AND with the retelling you get the Story of the game. The fun more cinematic version the players imagined in their heads. I haven't played many war games and they've always seemed difficult to get into but these videos get me excited to try! Informative and very fun.

I love how you started out with a quite serious war game and ended with a British comedy movie XD

This was hilarious good fun. I loved that show growing up (I'm old) and this game captured the spirit so very well! Especially the "I'm not dead yet!" model swapping! Gotta love old BBC editing! Thanks for this!

This video is so well done! The set-up of the game. The editing. Even lighting the room differently to differentiate between the play footage and the after commentary! Love the "in 30 minutes" format and this one was aces!

I've loved every single Bolt-Action video so far, they're amazing. The editing is absolutely phenomenal, the models are wonderfully painted, and the fun spirit of things was a great cherry-on-top. Please do more, and continue to take your time with them, the final product has been superb every time. I'm very excited for the next one! 💙

these are the best. i know they take alot of time and effort to make and do. so thanks to Tom and everyone for making these great battle reports happen!

The Bolt Action player in me says "That's not how Assault" works but oh well! Really fun to watch. Nice scenario and a lovely little board.

I'm so glad there's another of these videos, I adore how you edit them together and still manage to capture the joy and intensity of the game!

Another brilliant episode. Loved the editing as always, and Pyrion had some amazing rolls this game (that triple 1 🤯)

Now I want to see a full on 'Allo 'Allo scenario with all of the recurring characters in their own little groups: Rene and the cafe staff, the German officers that liaise with them, the Gestapo, the French resistance and of course not forgetting the British airmen and the undercover policeman. I think the scenario should centre about retrieving that well known painting.
