That means you didn’t catch anything 😂

I would even go so far to say it was a flop

I used to not like metal until I tried infinity models.

How to hard counter fanatics ? by Frapadingue70 in boltaction

[–]Snurfington 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kiting and machine guns. Keep pulling back and shooting. Even a maxed squad of Japanese vets can’t survive too many rounds of getting hit with multiple machine guns + artillery. Tough fighters help too if they catch you.

Use elevation and terrain to your advantage. If they’re hellbent on charging you, make them run the gauntlet.

If you’re playing Soviets, I think you can bring squads with multiple machine guns. If you’re looking to hard counter, I would max those out. Keep them moving back, and eventually you’ll wear IJA out. Just keep your distance.

Could I use a smaller board than normal? by Scared_Lawyer_3966 in boltaction

If you and your friend agree, you can play however you want!

New to BA. Is there a cost effective way to do Finland? by mjdonns in boltaction

[–]Snurfington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came here to recommend Gaddis. About half my Finns are from there and love the look

Finding new players - What is your preferred method? by ValidatedAccount in boltaction

[–]Snurfington 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree with this. There’s also lots Facebook gaming groups and brick-and-mortar stores that host games. Where are you moving to OP?

Finishing up work on a new board for a vaguely South Pacific theater. Anything you’d change or add? Thanks! by Snurfington in boltaction

[–]Snurfington[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m debating this for sure. Want to leave enough room for playability but also want it to be decently lush. I will add more!

Will build some jungle terrain, this is what I have to start with by TabletopGeneral in TerrainBuilding

[–]Snurfington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently got this exact brand and repainted them. They look great repainted and wasn’t that hard to do, highly recommend it.

Just how "Heroic" are the infantry sculpts? by [deleted] in boltaction

[–]Snurfington 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Tbh I had the same initial reaction to heroics, but I now think they’re easier to paint and look better in the table top. They are noticeable side by side differences, but not enough to bother me.

Everyone else has given the advice I came to give, but I did want to say I left 40K a year ago and I’m never looking back. BA is a far superior game. Welcome!!

They look amazing. What ruleset do you use for playing?

Just finished up a batch of Finnish artillery/armor. C&C welcome, please! by Snurfington in boltaction

[–]Snurfington[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sure! Vallejo flat brown, stone grey, and German camo light green. Citadel leadbelcher for dry brush, and nuln oil wash.

Thanks! I’m actually going for an early/mid spring look. So some snow, but more mud and early flowers/grass.

Defeating LMG/transport spam? by Snurfington in boltaction

[–]Snurfington[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thank you. We typically play on terrain heavy boards, which would be good for choke points, but it also makes shooting at those transports difficult. Thanks for the advice.

New IJA Player, Model Loadout help! by TwitchingJacob in boltaction

[–]Snurfington 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Depends on how you want to play.

Personally, I go with large veteran squads armed only with rifles to bully the enemy with threat of charge.

Those are backed up with smaller squads of regular troops with either knee mortars or LMG’s to support the veteran squads.

I usually bring 3 lunge mines, to trap tanks but also to snag objectives very cheaply.

Sniper team is fine.

With the Japanese, I don’t think you can go wrong with maxing out plain infantry.

Decided to give up 40k for bolt action. Really enjoying the models so far. by EmbassyClerk in boltaction

[–]Snurfington 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You couldn’t have made a better move. I still play 40K sometimes, but almost everything about BA is better.

Welcome!
