You have a splendid set up there, nice video too. Although I did find the background small arms fire in the second a tad distracting.

[Grey Panda]

I agree Phil. It sounds a lot louder than when I listened to it before uploading it. Well you live and learn I guess 

[Gothic Line]

Thanks very much Gothic Line

BTW please note as it was my first game of Bolt Action I made a few mistakes with the rules. I've corrected as many as I noticed or has been brought to my attention but if anyone spots any others please let me know. I don't want to lead any new comers astray  

I'm a bit perplexed with an observation several viewers have made regarding the sniper however, perhaps some here can help

The sniper is 32" away (sniper range is 36" I think) so is in range but has a negative -1 modifier (or +1 modifier I suppose so it's now 4+)
The target is in some cover (+1 modifier) but since the firer is a sniper no effect for cover...so still (4+ to hit)
Now a BA player has said a Sniper always gets a positive +2 to hit regardless of the situation(2+ to hit)
Another player has mentioned the Sniper should get a plus +1 (3+ to hit)

Can anyone confirm what's the actual rule.

Thanks

That's correct a sniper always gets a +1 to hit, so hits on a 2+ less any modifiers other than cover.

Really nice set up.Lovely figures and fantastic scenery.

Lovely table
Are you walls fixed in place or loose?
The level of detail around the table is great?

[Grey Panda]

Thanks guys. Everything is loose (well there is a small amount of really low walls close to the German 1st squad that belongs to a town base but everything else is loose. I really like the drop cloth for creating different terrain settings. Hills, valleys, ditches are al very manageable. It takes a few hours to put a scene up but I enjoy that aspect too.

Glad you guys enjoyed it. I hope to make the third part in the next few days

Oh Phil thanks for confirming that..didn't want to post anything on the vid till I was certain
