Bolt Action Boot Camp: Saturday
Battle Report: British Vs Japanese Round Three
Things got bloody in the third round. The Brits managed to get the first activation and Ryan ran his infantry up into the glider to snag the objective. Just as they were celebrating though, they heard a cry of "Banzai!" from outside and suddenly were facing a screaming unit of Japanese infantry. The Brits didn't stand a chance and were quickly wiped out in combat, the Japanese stealing the objective.
Meanwhile, the inexperienced Japanese infantry had continued to advance down the flank, taking their chance to fire at the remaining British infantry unit and killing three men and their NCO who was carrying the sub-machine gun.
For the rest of the turn, Ryan poured all of his firepower into the Japanese vets who had snagged the objective.
The Cromwell, Vickers machine gun team, Bren Carrier and even the medic tried to shoot down the unit. Together they managed to take out three men, as well as the NCO, and put five pin markers on the unit, but in the end the unit was still there.
Everything hangs in the balance for the next turn.
I’m just wondering why the Japanese officer is modeled laying belly down on the ground and still holding his sword in a charge position.
And i’m genuinely curious about this.
maybe he’s hoping that the enemy will run into it
Are there rules for this in the rulebook?
err he’s just about to stand up;;; ;-), we actually switched out the model for another when they got to the plane
That pic looking from the back of the tank forward is sweet! Hope he gets to shoot before those guys move
He is poised to spring an ambush on someone!
Seems the Japanese could win this one if they can hold on to that objective.
I like the map and the placing ov the objdctive 🙂
This board is amazing!
Love the plane objective!
I’m with Japanese for my next army
