    Really enjoyed hearing Greg walk through this. His enthusiasm for what he does comes across. I am about to start mission one on my first play through so here getting some training before OJT. I wonder if sales are good enough to warrant a North Africa/Italy version?

    @@WW2SolitaireBoardGameChannel Only in the first combat round of an Attack or Assault battle, the Germans go first, so in that one round the Germans would roll and possibly shoot at you before you get to take your actions. In all later round of an Attack or Assault, and in ALL rounds of a Move to Contact or Defend battle, you go first and only after you are done do you roll for the Germans to see if they shoot at you. Any German that you have fired at will automatically fire at you, and will continue firing at you every round with no roll required. Likewise, once a German rolls a 1 and fires at you he keeps on firing in every subsequent round with no die roll needed.

    I think he forgot to roll for immobilization when turning the hull for face the Pz 4.

  • @MoesWargames

    @MoesWargames

    Жыл бұрын

    Yes, he did not roll for immobilization and that was because he didn't have to. He's in clear terrain, and on the B5 chart the only roll he can get for immobilized is a 2 and he already has the "Eye for Terrain" skill for his driver and that gives him a +1. On a 2d6 roll he cannot roll lower than a 2, so in clear terrain it's always a pass with that modifier. Good job in paying attention, you have completed tank school Brian! :)

    Vassal is a digital version of the board game, so what you're seeing on screen are the same pieces you'll have in your physical game. It's much easier to use and record with the Vassal module than it is with the physical game since you don't have to worry about camera quality, lighting etc.
