Boot Camp Gong - Total Wipe Out!

36 Comments

Another GONG was won…or DONG which appears to be what Lloyd turned our board into. Here we have a winner who managed to completely wipe out his opponent.

death by firing squad harsh

It wasn’t quite that harsh … because my machinegunners did manage to hold the 8th army of for quite a while.

Heck, I had one lonely machinegunner pretty much succeed in wiping out one of the squads on his own.
And of course there was the “don’t panic” moment a bit earlier in this game.

Impressive to table someone, doesn’t happen often

I think for an experienced Bolt-action player vs a total noob like me it isn’t that unexpected.

Hindsight being what it is I think I missed out on one important rule : my HQ and his ability to pull 2 order dice (2nd Lt using German special rule : Blitzkrieg).

It’s possible that I was not aggressive enough on my left flank.
However keeping at least one of my squads on the left flank in ambush also prevented him from bringing up the medium machine gun team.
So I’d call that a successfull delaying action in my book.
