Flames of War Battle Report - King Tigers vs US Veteran Shermans 

Thanks for checking out the video. We enjoy the game very much and hope the video was informative.

Thanks Philip, we are trying to fit more into the report whilst managing the length of the video. Thanks for watching!

It was only hot for two days! Brian was unlucky and earlier reserves would probably have won him the game.

Thanks Pacofores! Glad you enjoyed the format.

Thanks M1sterP1nk. The Battle Weary Infantry are not too bad at rallying on a 4+. Ant it was crucial as you say as the US were running out of time and tanks on their side of the table!

@@PanzerSchule Okay now I get it. It was the four rolled at the end and I mixed it with last stand for the Pershing or so. My fault. But again good video with a smoothly run game.

I'm going to try this in the remote gaming too. Maybe not this week though.

Thanks for watching. You need to get around the flanks. Especially against the aggressive ones. They are really easy to hit.

Hello Philip, any team can choose to move out of command. There is a penalty of 1 to shooting for any teams that are moving when out of command. If they remain still there is no penalty to shoot. There is the risk that you may have to make a Last Stand if any casualties are suffered but only if casualties are suffered. Any questions, please let me know.

@@PanzerSchule shouldn't the KT have taken a last stand check then? Would have only had one team in command? Regardless, thanks for the clarification.

@@philiphale2785 That's right, Last Stands only come into effect after a casualty (including bails for tanks) are suffered. That's the chance you are forced to sometimes make with units like the King Tigers.

@@PanzerSchule ah, only after a casualty? I thought it was any time you only have 1 active tank team.

@@philiphale2785 Yes, you can't be in bad spirits if you haven't lost any teams/had any bailed out. That's when the single team becomes relevant.

It was effectively game over when the HQ KT died. We could have rolled a few more dice just in case I suppose. There was a statistical chance of a formation break.

Probably because of how much hiding I did! Scary things, the front end of a KT.

@@PanzerSchule alot of moving around for the KTs in the end and not enough numbers to hold the objectives. Unfortunate firepowers again made it difficult for you but tanks backed up with the infantry just wins

@@valleygamingfowmesbgswl if the Wespse had not died, the KTs might have pushed onto my objectives. Having to turn back broke their momentum. But it was always going to be a difficult game for Brian.

@@PanzerSchule Brian definitely went bold and I think it almost worked. If reserves had been a bit more interested in coming on

@@valleygamingfowmesbgswl aye, sometimes it's just down to the dice.

Hello Beth any. Are you referring to the clear green plastic artillery template? These are made by Flames of War. If you arexreferring to domething else, please let me know.

@@PanzerSchule No the deployment indicators

@@bethanylovely2251 These are made by Litko. Briam bough them many, many years ago so I'm not sure on availability.

@@PanzerSchule found something very similar on etsy today and purchased :)

@@bethanylovely2251 Good stuff. Hope they suit.

The old ones are gone I reckon. Its all about the new sets now.
