Flames of War FTW: How To Deal With Dug In Infantry
May 22, 2015 by warzan
Dave and Warren are back for the third season of FOW FTW. This time they're looking at the more vital tactical aspects of the game. To start things off they deal with dug in infantry; "The bane of everyone's existence."
Watch the XLBS Show
If you enjoy the show there is even more Flames of War For the Win for you to enjoy as we have the XLBS companion video exclusive for Backstage members. In it we look at more effective ways of deal with dug in infantry including Soviets with flamethrowers!
How do you deal with dug in infantry?
Great show, was it worth compared to the first way yes. I love confounding people with the PBI in FOW.
Great to have FOW FTW back on
I loved the show. I really enjoy the new format, using actual situations to explain rules and concepts really helps. I liked there were options and not just one style wins all. I look forward to more episodes and learning much more about the cool games of FoW!!!!!!
good to see how the different ways pan out.
GREAT as always!!!!
Glad to see this back 🙂 almost missed it with all the excitement of the BA Bootcamp! Maybe it was a different camera angle or something but it seemed much easier to follow what you were doing in this episode than it did in the last season which was good.
Really well produced episode of the show. Agree with D41ykj that it was very smartly filmed. Even for someone like me with a passing familiarity with this game, the concepts and tactics were easy to understand. I love these kinds of videos.
Great to see FOW-FTW back on. Couple of things on the second attempt to unseat the dug in panzergrenadiers: You should have shot them with the tanks first… a pinned unit is considered gone to ground. Having shot the bombardment before the tanks makes it harder for the more penetrating tanks to get hits. Also, the Germans were not pinned because Dave ranged in, they are pinned when they take a hit, so not until the roll to hit are they pinned, which he got two so no problem. Also, check on whether a team can shoot twice in defensive… Read more »
I love these videos, thanks for putting them together
