Before I watch I’m gonna guess at Soviet victory.
love BoW bat reps
Hold on to your lug-nuts . . . THIS WILL BE FREAKIN’ AWESOME!
Think @Justin could not find his, but then again he never had a chance to.
great battle report
Man, those little German Helicopter are gonna be difficult to deal with.
Okay, I’m still watching this . . . but ARGGH! These choppers are meant to kill tanks. Justin! Shoot your Hinds at the TANKS. The reason these to-hot rolls are so tough (correctly so) against enemy aircraft is they’re not really designed to fight enemy aircraft. An AT-9 against a Leopard II is a good kill, and now you have 4 Leopards vs. 9 T-72s, better odds.
Just what I was thinking (about the Hind) and I’m not even an expert. Who knew a game site would be so educational.
just to be mean 😉 heading up this weekend to Co. Antrim so going over to play against the lads on Sunday WooHooo!!! sorry Jim just had to say it
@buggeroff – I see how you are. 😀 Belated best wishes for success in your games!
Go Germans , let’s win.
Looks cool
Don’t feel bad, my dice crap out on me turn 3 every time and that’s the turn that makes or brakes my games.
I might just be Russian to get this
Been waiting all week for this video.. Gotta do all the evening chores before I can settle down to watch this tonight with a nice cuppa tea… Excellent.. Ps this week has got my team yankee mojo all fired up…
Yes finally. Now we need at least one or two more bat reps
Nice to see how the game plays out.
It looks like the Soviets could almost play Napoleonics. Just make a gun battery and slowly advance while firing.
Great, love you’re battle reports.

As a Soviet player I’m looking forward to tangling with some Leopards. @oriskany, too far for you to travel? 🙂
@benc – Well, I flew 4300 miles to play Team Yankee in the boot camp. If I get across that way again for Operation Zeus or some other BoW event, who knows? My Leopards might have to crack open some 120mm smoothbores . . . 😀 (once they get here and I build them, that is).
@oriskany If you make it over at some point then your Leopards are welcome to try 🙂
Justin was far to gungho, great battle report, liking the look of this game
Great game, relly enjoyed watching
love those Hinds
Just primed my french army (yes I know there are no rules yet). 7 AMX 30, 3 AMX 155mm GC, 17 Panhard APCs, 17 Infantry stand (1 small), 16 ML Teams, 4 HOT Tank Hunters, 1 Obs, 3 Trucks, 2 Jeeps, 4 Mirage and 4 Eurocopters (I know they weren’t around yet in 1985, but they look SO cool). And I’m sitting here thinking “HOW THE HELL SHOULD I PAINT ALL THIS.”
Suddenly a wild BOW TY batrep appears. Perfect timing! Let’s get out the brush and hit the paints.
where did you get the amx from want some for my spanish army
nice bat rep though I think a lot more could have been tactically.
Thanks for the report, was helpful to get a grasp of the rules.
What has struck me is how ‘fast’ this game is compared to FoW. Firstly how fast the tanks are (how they can move and shoot at full rate), how hard they hit, how fast the helicopters are. I can’t see too many static gun lines in this game!
This is going to make me dig out my WWIII fiction again…
Hmm, with unlimited movement of the Hinds, as Oriskany said above, fly all the way to the edge of the board, possibly behind the fuel/water tanks and shoot the tanks in the rear. Especially the command tank. Now the smaller German copters which couldn’t move and shoot, would have a poorer time doing that.
Do the Hinds, thinking about the one in the Rambo movie, have the ability to carry napalm?
before watching or reading any comments… man I hope germany crushes face!
