  1. Great video! Good to know that the US Army Starter Set is good, I was thinking on making a army of Brazilian Expeditionary Force, and this Box Set seems great to build it!

  2. One of my small dislikes with Bolt Action that I hoped they would change in this edition was the FG-42 being classified as an assault rifle in game. It was not an assault rifle.
    Its chambered in 8mm Mauser (same as K98k) not 8mm Kurz (same as STG44).
    It was supposed to be used for both sniping and squad support more akin to an automatic rifle. So it really should be classified as an automatic rifle in game.

  3. Mordian, I have the waffen starter set, all the other german infantry sets (besides winter ones), and I still feel like I need more boxes, just because the Germans have SO many awesome unit types that you can build. They have SO much potential from a modeling perspective.

  4. Returning player here, starting from scratch. I went with the British airborne starter set. Plus a pack howitzer and AA gun. I also order the light tank to come with my rule book.

    I'll be using my 3d printers to produce many jeeps for the army.

    I'm looking forward to 3rd edition. The local chaps have organised an intro day in October so I'm building up a small force to go along to that with.

  5. What will be the status of Canada and other commonwealth countries in 3rd edition while I know they won’t be in the rule book but will they get they’re own PDF or will we have to wait till the armies of Britain comes out?

    P.S what do you think the Best Buy for a Canadian army be other than the Sherman troop?

  6. Is just me? This 3rd edition has some terrible changes. I'm open to trying it and the Boys at warlord HQ reckon they can change my mind. But the changes to force composition will surely make the game prone to bad match ups and bloat the game, I don't like the dumbing down of shooting and the nerfing of combat. I'm probably going to stick to second. Also the free units (apart from the British one) were fucking cool.

  7. Stupid question.

    But does the starter set explain how to field a single vehicle?

    From what I understand vehicles must now be taken as a vehicle platoon in support of a rifle platoon, with the vehicle platoon having at least 2 vehicles, so 1 greyhound can't be used.

  8. Very useful, thank you. I didn't play BA for a while and I'm interested in restarting with this V3. As a belgian I'm also appealed by the battle of the bulge theme, so I will definitely order this new starter set
