Bolt Action: Breaktrough to Tunisia (🇬🇧EN/🇵🇱PL) Środa, Kwi 13 2022 

🇵🇱 Dzisiaj rozegraliśmy większą bitwę, w której Niemcy podjęli ostatnią próbę powstrzymania połączonych sił alianckich przed zdobyciem Tunezji i uzyskaniem dobrej pozycji do dalszego ataku na Sycylię.

W tej grze wszystkie niemieckie pojazdy oraz jednostki transportowane ciężarówkami stanowiły pierwszą falę i rozpoczynały grę na stole, natomiast reszta tworzyła drugą falę. Następnie alianci zaczęli wchodzić na planszę spoza stołu – jednostki bez transportów również pojawiały się jako część drugiej fali.

🇬🇧 Today we played a larger battle in which the Germans made a final attempt to stop the combined Allied forces from capturing Tunisia and securing a strong position for a further assault on Sicily.

In this game, all German vehicles and units transported by trucks formed the first wave and started on the table, while the rest made up the second wave. The Allies then began entering from off the board – units without transports also arrived as part of the second wave.

🇵🇱 Podsumowanie:
– Dziękuję wszystkim za świetny czas!
– Tym razem siły alianckie wygrały!

🇬🇧Summary:
– Thank you all for great time!
– This time Allied troops won!

WFB: Bretonnians vs Orcs (🇬🇧EN/🇵🇱PL) Wtorek, Kwi 12 2022 

🇵🇱 Wczoraj razem z Michałem rozegraliśmy grę w formacie Border Patrol na 500 punktów, korzystając z zasad Warhammer Fantasy Battles 7. edycji. Michał nie grał w WFB od dłuższego czasu, więc była to dobra okazja, żeby odświeżyć zasady.

Ponieważ strona bretońska (Michał) zdecydowała się modlić do Pani Jeziora, orkowie rozpoczęli pierwszą turę gry.

🇬🇧 Yesterday, Michał and I played a Border Patrol game at 500 points using Warhammer Fantasy Battles 7th edition rules. Michał hadn’t played WFB for a long time, so it was a good opportunity for him to refresh the rules.

Since the Bretonnian side (Michał) chose to pray to the Lady, the Orcs took the first turn of the game.

🇵🇱 Podsumowanie:
– Świetna gra, a ponieważ był to scenariusz Border Patrol, była szybka i idealna, żeby wrócić do zasad WFB.


🇬🇧 Summary:
– A great game, and since it was a Border Patrol scenario, it was fast and perfect for getting back into the WFB rules.

Bolt Action: From Tobruk to Kasserine Poniedziałek, Kwi 11 2022 

As you maybe know in Wrocław, Poland we play many different games – among them WFB, Middle Earth, 40k, Black Powder, many skirmishes – among those games is great Bolt Action from Warlord Games. While last time I had some serious things on my head, which was moving IT stuff from one office to the other, so I wasn’t playing games for last two weeks, but I’ve been on „last” game of African campaign supported by Instytut Pamięci Narodowej (IPN).

On last Wendesday 6.04.2022 we participated in event connected to history, model making, education and reconstruction.

Event was open by no one than director of Wrocław IPN dr. Paweł Rozdżestwieński and head of the branch (in PL called Naczelnik Oddziału) of the Office of National Education in Wrocław dr. Katarzyna Pawlak-Weiss. Then all fluff about Tunisian campaing were told, especially about battle of Kasserine Pass and fights for Mareth Line. In first part one of us – Maciej Molczyk said words about Polish Independent Carpatian Brigade up to the moment were it was changed to 3rd Division of Carpatians rifles, being part of 2nd Polish Corps. In addition there were ppl in uniforms of this unit.

In meantime IPN got great diorama, painted by Bonapartist Paint Studio.

After prelection Bolt Action games on two tables started, I said that I will be there for minutes, finally I left at the end of event.

Below photos are mix of photos done by Wrocław IPN with logo of IPN and some photos done by me. Text was translated from IPN post.

The Silver Bayonet: First blood – first game! (EN🇬🇧/PL🇵🇱) Niedziela, Mar 20 2022 

🇵🇱 Dzisiaj rozegraliśmy naszą pierwszą grę w The Silver Bayonet – graliśmy w Bolterze we Wrocławiu. Moi towarzysze zaczęli już o 10:00, a ja dołączyłem do nich dopiero o 13:00 – musiałem sprawdzić czy biuro nadal stoi.

Ta gra jest przyjemna, szybka i prosta:
– rzuca się na inicjatywę,
– osoba, która wyrzuci najwyższy wynik, aktywuje jako pierwsza połowę swoich modeli; mogą się ruszać, biec, strzelać, szarżować, przeładowywać – mają po dwie akcje, więc mogą na przykład przeładować i strzelić,
– potem aktywują się kolejne osoby,
– ostatni gracz aktywuje wszystkie swoje modele, a następnie następuje odwrócona kolejność aktywacji pozostałych modeli – po ostatnim graczu aktywuje się trzeci, potem drugi i pierwszy,
– w międzyczasie aktywują się również potwory,
– scenariusze – zdecydowanie fajnie gra się scenariusze,
– na pewno chcemy grać w to częściej!

🇬🇧 Today we played our first game of The Silver Bayonet at Bolter in Wrocław, Poland. My friends started playing at 10:00, and I joined them later at 13:00 – I had to check if my office is still standing.

This game is enjoyable, fast, and simple:
– you roll for initiative,
– the player with the highest roll activates half of their models first; they can move, run, shoot, charge, reload, and so on – each model has two actions, so for example it can reload and then shoot,
– then the other players activate in order,
– the last player activates all of their models, and after that the activation order is reversed for the remaining models – so after the last player, it goes back to the third, then the second, and finally the first player,
monsters also activate during the turn,
– scenarios – it is really great to play proper scenarios,
– we definitely want to play it more often!

🇵🇱 Podsumowanie:
– miły, szybki skirmish – więcej w przyszłości.

🇬🇧 Summary:
– nice, fast skirmish game – more in future.

Bolt Action: Pre-tournament excercises Środa, Mar 16 2022 

Today on the Bolt Action evening we played 1,000 games on tournament conditions – there were four of us – me, Jędrzej, Karol and Marek – we played two different games, me on Jędrzej and Karol on Marek – so it was Red Army on Heer and Great Britain on Heer.

Jędrzej and Marek if I’m correct goes to tournament in UK on May and they wanted to play with someone they want play, I agreed and asked Karol if he can too – with Karol we are not tournament players (I was in past in WFB 5-7th editions).

Summary:
– it was nice to play 1 vs 1 on Jędrzej, we usually play bigger battles in Black Powder, jet we played some WFB game too.
– with Karol we manage to build two nice tables from terrain avaible in Bolter.
– we played scenario from Fortress Budapest – it was to take control over some important things placed on table, in case of my battle with Jędrzej I lost 10 to 5.
– thank you all for game and shop for place to play!

Bolt Action: Making bridgehead Sobota, Mar 12 2022 

Yesterday we played in Bolter.pl, Wrocław, PL game on 2000 points per side – I with Franek played on Red Army side and Karol played Germans, we were supported by Krisu at some point of the game to the end of it.

On table were four objectives and bridge – each objective was worth one dice – main objective – river crossing was our target – side with most soldiers up to 10″ could take bridge.

Summary:
– another interesting scenario we played last time and I think it’s the best way to play games,
– during game KV-1 and Panther tanks were destroyed, there were many lost soldiers on Soviet side, Germans loses were much smaller.
– Franek – next time do your rosteer sheet – it’s easy with Easy Army.
– my mortar was really good with hitting Karols infantry – I guess did biggest casultaties.
– thank you all for game, wish more – unfortunately next Friday or two of them I will be off as I have some work related duties.

The Silver Bayonet: Russian warband Poniedziałek, Mar 7 2022 

On Sunday/Monday night I managed to do five and half hour tournee and painted whole band of Russians for The Silver Bayonet skirmish game.

Summary:
– five and half hour at night and I have one more band finished, so now it’s time to again read rules and play first game.
– I have to varnish them – as they are metal models.
– models if I’m correct are from North Star.

Bolt Action: Convoy on the way Piątek, Mar 4 2022 

Today we played a game where were two sides – attackers and defenders and convoy of truck which was main objective – for one side to defend it and to the other to destroy. Each truck was worth four order dices in case of counting victory – for attacking side for destroying each, for defenders side for moving them from one side of board to another,

On attacker side were my Finns and Franek’s Soviet Union, on defenders side were Kriss Australians and Karol’s Germans. Each player had 750 points platoon.

Summary:
– the Australians and Germans won this battle, all trucks survived but non left the road.
– I losed my Sturmi antitank gun when it started duel with German Panther.
– the bravest man was from Kriss scouts, fighting bravely in bulding in the middle.
