Again I didn't want it lanquish in the pile of potential so quickly got it underway and here it is.
Gaming returned to OHQ this week with Dave been mobile once more. I arranged a WW2 game using Bolt Action III, a force of German Volksgrenadiers with tank support would be trying to breakout from an Allied encirclement.
Unfortunately I neglected to take any photos after the first turn, not as it really mattered my Volksgrenadiers didn't advance much after that. Constant pinning by British fire virtually halted the German advance after turn two. The breakout ground to a halt completely in turn five, pinning and poor planning on my part led to failure. It was good to see pinning being the order of the day in third rather than killing everything in sight in the previous incarnations. This like the game over at GHQ recently was certainly more WW2 than 1940K.
Until next time, here are the pics.
Neat truck and a fantastic looking game.
ReplyDeleteThank you Jonathan.
DeleteTruck looks ace! I enjoyed the game, and the rare win, but felt you weren't at your best yesterday.
ReplyDeleteThank you, glad you enjoyed the game. Not one of my better days indeed.
DeleteA beautiful vehicle Phil and a lovely WW2 battle 👍
ReplyDeleteThank you Matt.
DeleteSuperb painting as always and lovely shots of the game too:).
ReplyDeleteThank you Steve, sorry there aren't more but it would only be of my poor grenadiers cowering in cover 😟
DeleteNice Phil, I am still on the fence re V3.
ReplyDeleteThank you George. V3 is definitely better but Battlegroup will remain my go to, I do hope a lower level version appears at some point. BA is fine for chucking stuff down on the table and letting rip.
DeleteLovely truck and the game looks great as well Phil!
ReplyDeleteChristopher
Thank you Christopher.
DeleteGreat looking truck, very nice model and really well done. Good looking game as well!
ReplyDeleteThank you Donnie.
DeleteA fine display of models, figures and terrain there once again Phil. Nice to see you're getting along with V3, and that it seems to be working well for this scale of game. Excellent work all round 👍
ReplyDeleteThank you Paul, most kind. BA can be fine if you ignore all the nonsense included for the tournament crowd and stuff to sell Warlords wares, nebelwerfers on a 6x4 table for instance🙄
ReplyDeleteA. Nice looking truck Phil…
ReplyDeleteAnd …as always a lovely looking game.
All the best. Aly
Thank you for continued encouragement Aly.
DeleteLooking good! I wasn't even aware there was a 3rd edition of BA out 🙈
ReplyDeleteThank you Nic, you did well managing to miss all the hype.
