    @stephengray3401 7 днів тому

    I would not say you did anything wrong per se. The game is designed so that by luck or lack thereof with respect to the card draw getting overwhelmed frequently occurs. You might have tried to get location cards that had none or lower levels of reinforcements. You were also hampered by entrance costs and the game does a marvelous job of bogging you down. It is supposed to be difficult to win which is what makes it fun and challenging. You had quite a few locations to get through and actually did quite well to even get one of your soldiers into the objective location. The other game mechanic that is hard to overcome is having to kill all the hostiles in the objective location before destroying the intended target. Keep trying. When you succeed it will feel like a major accomplishment.

    • @WW2SolitaireBoardGameChannel

    Great victory, but you made it more difficult on yourself by rolling extra machine gun fire in sectors that don't have the special damage symbol. You only need to roll again on a skull in the sectors with both the machine gun and black six symbols (special damage). That would be Sectors 4, 13, 16, and the bunker. The other sectors with just the machine gun fire are treated normally and don't incur the special damage. I don't think you'd be able to use the Grenadier to silence the machine gun in the bunker (see card). Since you took too much damage from the MGF, the benefit you gained by playing the Grenadier isn't too severe.

About machine gun fire: Yes of course I should have only rolled once, I must have just been trying to play quick to get the video moving and had that special rule in the back of my head and not thought to look if that special damage symbol was actually there :D Some fog of war.

Also, mine attacks don’t automatically immobilise the Sherman - you’ll see that it actually says that the Sherman only suffers a mine attack if it is NOT already immobilised (it couldn’t drive over a mine in that case of course).

Right now I'm spending my scarce free time on Warfighter WW2 - Airborne (fun but hard). But it will soon be time for D-Day Dice again. I got a little curious about the name on the Battle Map: "Château de Vaumicel" or "Manoir de Vaumicel". It is located just behind Omaha Beach near Vierville-sur-Mer. It is mentioned here: on Google search for "OMAHA BEACHHEAD ADVANCE INLAND" First paragraph: Vierville Area "A platoon of 5th Battalion Rangers, 1st Lt. Charles H. Parker, Jr., commanding, on reaching the bluff crest had seen no other troops, and immediately started southwest to get around Vierville and reach the battalion assembly area. After making a halfmile without meeting opposition, the platoon was stopped by enemy fire from hedgerows near the Chateau de Vaumicel, just south of Vierville. They spent the rest of the morning working past this fire toward the chateau grounds."

    I posted a comment on BGG proposing they add your name to thank in the 3rd edition rules. Your coverage of the game is amazing. This does look like an interesting map. One of the things I love about Emmanuel's games is the amazing variety of variants that keeps his games from feeling like the same experience over and over. Enough praise - on to the next map!

      @@davidlhsl Thank you so much, that would be awesome. I am mentioned somewhere in one of the books, as I did help design 1 of the optimal rules for D-Day dice pocket! Sometimes I feel like I should rename this channel "D-Day Dice Channel" 😂 Yes this map is great fun! I like almost all maps from the basic game, but I think the game shines when you introduce the expansions and their modules! I can't wait for Way to Hell which is my favorite!

    Thanks mate, and your prononciation of "Château de Vaumicel" is almost perfect except for the "C" of Vaumicel which is more like the "S" of Sergeant. Yes, I would also like to have a clarification for the Engineer if multiple bunkers are involved on the map. Maybe Emmanuel who seems to watch these video at least from time to time could answer in here ? Ultimately, I have a doubt. Can you remember me if one can buy multiple objets or recruit multiple units per turn ? Pretty sure it is in the rules but I have my fog of war moment right now o_O And again thanks a lot. Very appreciated as a big fan of D-Day Dice. PS: I never saw a video of Undaunted (Normandy, North Africa, Stalingrad) on your channel ? Is there a particular reason ?

      @@davidg.1387 Merci! Trying my best 😄 Regarding the Engineer: I've read up on that and it does indeed work for EVERY bunker that you enter! The Flamethrower is indeed a one time use item. You can only recruit 1 specialist/turn and find 1 item/turn, that is also true for awards, you can purchase a maximum of 1 award/turn. I never bought any of the Undaunted games and I was never asked by the publisher about any review copies either. As I find my collection getting larger and larger, including hundreds of titles, I have decided to mainly buy true solo games, not games with solo mode or games that require solo expansions.

      ​​@@WW2SolitaireBoardGameChannel Thanks for the clarifications and glad the engineer is able to do his magic on multiple bunker as the contrary would have been unthematic (is this a word?). And yes I forgot that Undaunted isn't a solo game. Stupid me. A light and nice one anyway but for two players. Ah, almost forgot. Do you intend to try the Overlord Campaign ? I reckon there is a solo mode for it. I am glad I could ultimately put my hand on the neoprene mega map playmat 🥰

    Unlucky - of course, the landing missions were the toughest in actual fact. However, you did the hard part and had a clear path to victory! Great video as ever. Thanks Dan
