HellRaiser 7 replied to the topic Spotters in the forum Bolt Action 9 months, 3 weeks ago
I’m not going to debate with you any longer. I gave my take, so now it’s just beating a dead horse. I found today posts and forums around that say I’m correct and a found a couple that states they use your interpretation. Something Version 3 down the road will hopefully clarify better. All the games I’ve played and T/O , Bolt Action has the lea…[Read more]

No Nat, I’m not going into the “Historical Trap” of trying to put historical realism in the game. (I’ve been playing historical Wargames for almost 45 years, (I’m 59) I know the difference) I was only try to explain why a spotter could not get his coordinates and send them to the rear if he was pinned down. Back to the Gaming part of the game, whe…[Read more]

Thank you for you input Nat, I didn’t disagree with anything you said above (except the actual spotting) . I know they don’t have their own order dice. They do share it was the weapon team. The Spotter uses the “order” dice when they go to move and weapon team does nothing that turn. If the spotter needs to move, and it(the spotter not the weap…[Read more]

I think you’re misreading it. And you left out a key sentence following the statement the crew sees what’s he sees. The next sentence explains the spotter is enabling the crew to see a target that is invisible to them . If the spotter is pinned down by machinegun fire (for example), how can he relay coordinates and direct fire if he has a pin? So…[Read more]

If the spotter wants to run or advance move, and he has a pin, you have to give him an order check, why wouldn’t you give an order check if you use the spotter to spot the target?

If a spotter has a pin, (say for your medium Howitzer) and your Howitzer does not have LOS on the target, but that spotter does. Isn’t the spotter required to take an order check before (calling in the targets coordinates) for the Howitzer? Of course of the Howitzer can see the target they don’t need to use their spotter.

The New Warlord Army Builder App Has the Steyr M35 listed under Reinforced list. Is the Warlord App an official tool now to let participants use for tournaments? Is it ready to start having gamers use it as the Army builder for tournaments from now on?

Thanks for the post Stuart. I run several tournaments and events a year which I’ve always enforced the rule if the book doesn’t say that a unit can take a certain slot of the Generic List, I don’t allow it. (Friendly 1vs1 game I wouldn’t care). I was pretty sure Stuart the answer you gave was the one I’d get back as being the right one. While…[Read more]

<p class=”p3″>The Steyr ADZG M35 Armor Car is listed in the Germany Strikes book. It’s listed under New German Units. It doesn’t say it can be listed under generic units . I don’t think I’ve seen any Theater books state for vehicles to have the required statement “can take a vehicle/tank slot in a generic platoon”. That standard generic pla…[Read more]

I love the Vallejo Spray Paint colors, the paint goes on nice an even, doesn’t cover up details, and the colors I’ve used are historically spot on. They advertise theses spray paints can be used as the primer and base color for your miniatures. I wanted to see if anyone has just used a Vallejo Spray Paint as the primer and base coat (with just one…[Read more]

HellRaiser 7 replied to the topic Bulgarian Units in the forum Bolt Action 1 year, 8 months ago
Thank you. You can get a flamethrower team under the Axis support role. You can get any German unit as long as it isn’t a veteran. I know you can get a flamethrower team. I thought I saw it listed on the Warlord List builder as part of the normal reinforced listing. I’ve never seen non-combatants listed before couldn’t find which book had it.

I’m building a Bulgarian Army as I’m also building a Partisan Army so definitely some good gaming possibilities there. Trying to figure out the Bulgarian Generic Reinforced Platoon as I may use it for a tournament army just cause it’s not a common Army and I like to do use less popular. On the Bulgarian Generic Reinforced list in the Italy and A…[Read more]

I wasn’t being careless, that’s why I asked. I am also TO, run lots of BA tournaments. I had never noticed before the word “Reinforced” Platoon when describing a theater list. I wouldn’t of probably asked except for the other wording, ( to be honest, I’m not sure what it means) when it said use with the Partisan list in the Armies of French Book…[Read more]

For the Paris Uprising Reinforced Platoon, even thought it’s listed under the theater section, is it allowed for tournaments since it is listed as a “Reinforced “ Platoon and says is for use with Partisan armies found in the Armies of France and Allies book?
Also under this platoon list , it says if you use a Captured/Recaptured French vehic…[Read more]

<p style=”text-align: center;”>If the new (for example the rifle grenades) equipment should listed in a squad list and if that squad has listed it can be used in Generic Reenforced Platoon it should be good.
What Unit are you talking about with Rifle Grenades?</p> - Load More
