Thanks for the feedback, Luis. I’m still learning how to balance voice, music and sound effects to get them all at a good level, so I appreciate the comment! Thanks!
Amazing video introduction! I loved the background information for this most important battle in our history, and the choice of overlay illustrations - so good! As for the game, the unit counters are just great, lovely artwork. So, I'm looking forward to every move of this series as it's one of my favourite periods in history and I just know it'll benefit from the Zilla Blitz treatment. Way to go! :)
Thanks for the kind words, SOLO! I'm excited to try a new game and figure out how to shoot it. I think this will be a short series, probably 2-4 episodes or so. I'm hopeful it turns out and the battle is interesting. Thanks for stopping in!
Thanks, Peter! This scenario came from a magazine issue, so it's got larger counters, really striking. I mean, all the counters are strong, but when they are LARGER, they are even more striking. :)
Thanks, Geoff! I have started shooting Episode 1, and without giving too much away, I can say that my French strategy is ... not off to a promising start. :)
Awesome! Been waiting for this one. I've already watched a playthrough of this particular scenario a few months ago, but your video format and overall commentary is so enjoyable I wouldn't mind seeing the French struggle once more (but hey, they might just pull of a victory and prove me wrong). Can't wait for Episode 1! 😃
Thanks, Hex! I have an idea for the French so we'll see what happens. I tried a flanking move with them last time, but the English were able to stuff that in its tracks. I'm not confident in this idea, but we'll give it a shot. :)
I wasted no time moving in to the next report. I am familiar with this battle thanks to Henry but know very little about military history of this time period. Looking forward to it.
My last boss was English, and like Jeremy Clarkson, he would always bring up Agincourt any time he wanted to demonstrate some superiority over the French. :) I'm having trouble with the map's directions. It looks like the legend is printed so that North would be *down*? Isn't that a sort of torture? Also, the table looks good! :)
It was a remarkable battle in so many ways, for sure! I'm not sure if we have something like this in the US? Battle of the Bulge? The Alamo (but we lost)? Midway? North is to the left side, so the bottom of the map is west. And the table is working out so well. Thanks again for all the help!
Oh, now I understand your legend question! This scenario was actually first published in a wargame magazine, after the series had been released, so the terrain/combat legend is on the map instead of on a separate player aid. I think it faces the way it does because it's assumed two players will be sitting alongside the long horizontal sides of the map. :)
