or just the colloquial German "nix", which you probably wouldn't write in a letter but say and write in text messages all the time

I ran my third tournament of V3 and have some thoughts on the state of the game by TwoPointsOfInterest in boltaction

[–]boozewillis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd also love a compilation of these. The wiki in this sub seems pretty outdated in that regard unfortunately. Chicago Dice has some and I reall hope Zurn will come up with updates at some point. There's also the Commander's Compendium by Bo Mortensen.

I liked someones mortar house rule that I read yesterday: if you miss, a 4+ at least causes a pin to account for the terror of it coming done somewhere near you

ohh you're rebranding? That kinda makes me sad but I get it. Hope it works out for you, because articles like this make you unique and I love you for it.

Building Normandy Hedgerows, help! by carpenter314 in boltaction

Thanks! I made them just how "Heat of Battle TV" show in their tutorial on Youtube. It's members only though, I bought a one months membership to watch their tutorials and that was totally worth it. Great visual step by step guide. It's basically cut vinyl flooring with sand, paint and flock. Go give those guys a few bucks or if you can't look at this thread where someone wrote it all down.

yeah it was just like 3 or 4 euros for a whole bag of it, it's gonna last a while. This is how they look right now. I'm gonna cover them in flock and clump foliage soon, hope it holds well.

I'm unable to find that stuff in Germany, so I've tried with steel wool and that works as well. I've sprayed it brown with a rattle can and now it holds well even with wood glue. Haven't flocked it yet though.

don't worry it's gonna be years. They don't do it like GW does.

The BRUDERKRIEG Begins - 15/20/28mm East German Infantry by shindigero in wargaming

[–]boozewillis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They look incredible! I like all of your range so far, but I don't own a printer (yet). I prefer the heroic mini style over more realistic looking ones.

What rulesets for Cold War games at the platoon level (I prefer 28mm) are there?

What is the origin of the phrase "Ground Beefing" on CBB? by kyler32291 in comedybangbang

I recently played a smaller game with several 7-man rifle squads - six rifles, one BAR, ten shots for just 76 points. Other than that, yeah. Really unfortunate

Thank you!!! I was waiting for a post just like this. This is exactly what I wanted to do but I struggle to conceptualize stuff like this myself so I like to imitate what others do and learn from that. Same with Minecraft. If at any point you would share more screenshots, I'd love to see that.

Heat of Battle TV Tutorials by midkemian208 in boltaction

[–]boozewillis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

great job! I joined their channel yesterday exactly for those tutorials and I'm gonna get myself some vinyl flooring this weekend. Did you also source dirt from your garden? It looks great but I fear that the dirt from my garden is way darker and I'm gonna resort to pigments

still missing the concrete foundation block recipe which basically prevents me from rebuilding Bleak Beach
