Bolt Action V3 Battle 3

    Recently I was in Athens. The few days I stayed there I had the opportunity to see some old friends, buy some products for the hobby and play a game of Bolt Action V3 at my friend Kostas' house. Kostas has a huge collection of BA miniatures!

   We were four players: Savvas, Dimitris, Panos (Kostas' son) and me, with an army of 500pts each. Two of us played the Germans and the other two the British and the Americans. The battlefield was somewhere in Normandy. We had an objective of 5 victory points in the middle of the table. Besides, each destroyed enemy unit was an additional victory point.

The statue in the middle was the objective


   After the first three turns, there were many casualties on both sides and a lot of pin markers (the little red explosions) around the battlefield.

Matilda had a lucky shot

   When Panzer was destroyed, it was easy for the allied armies to move forward, take places around the statue and deny the five points of the objective to the Germans. 


   Finally, it was a victory for the Allies since they had more than two victory points from the Germans. It was a nice game and we had great fun!

   After the battle all the "warriors" enjoyed a delicious meal that Kostas' wife, Maria, prepared!

   That's it for today! Stay tuned for more!
