Mark Prichard replied to the topic What house rules do you guys use? in the forum Bolt Action 3 years, 11 months ago
In our league we have discussed some of these sniper rules set forth in this topic, but we have also discussed getting rid of the HE template and just use basic hits against units instead (Such as 2 hits for HE 1, 4 hits HE 2, etc). It would quicken the game slightly as players would not have to reach across the table to see how many figures…[Read more]

Mark Prichard started the topic Totenkorp (or other zomb ie units) and Reactions in the forum Konflikt '47 4 years, 1 month ago
The Totenkorps (or other zombie units such as the Japanese) ignore pin markers and morale checks. So does that mean they cannot perform a reaction because they do not do morale checks, or does it mean they automatically pass the morale test and can always do reactions?
Obviously is seems that animated corpses would not be able to perform a…[Read more]

Mark Prichard started the topic Charging though friendly units in the forum Pike & Shotte 4 years, 1 month ago
Can a unit charge through friendly units? The rules indicate that you must be able to see the unit in order to charge but that the charge is only the last movement, so that a unit can move over a hill and once able to see use its last movement order to charge (or at least that is how I understand it). How does it work if unit ordered to charge i…[Read more]

Mark Prichard replied to the topic Commander MacColla Unit and Disorder in the forum Pike & Shotte 4 years, 1 month ago
So MacColla is separate from the body guard unit (unless he purposely joins the unit and is subject to the rules for eliminating leaders who are a part of a unit as normal). Therefore, if the body guard unit is disordered it will follow the normal rules for disordered units and MacColla who is separate may still give orders as normal.

The Army of Montrose can bring Alasdair MacColla which includes a bodyguard unit (page 163).

A USMC Dog team can have between 1-4 handlers with each handler with a dog. Do the Dogs count as models and can be taken as a casualty or are the handler and the dog considered 1 model?

Mark Prichard replied to the topic Angle of impact in the forum Bolt Action 4 years, 6 months ago
We use a 45 degree template and a laser line to determine what arc a player is shooting. You place the template under the vehicles being shot and then use the laser pointer to determine where it hits. It is is on the side, it is a side shot. If it is only on the front its a front shot. It has made games alot less argumentative on the subject.
