The Iron Shark heads to Australia to hunt Allied shipping. This is a mini-series with Sensuikan, the Japanese submarine simulation game from Compass Games, designed by Gregory Smith. If you'd like to help me make more historical wargaming videos, here are some ways: - Join our Patreon community: https://www.patreon.com/zillablitz - Buy a boardgame on Noble Knight Games store via this link: https://www.nobleknight.com/?awid=1430 - Buy me a coffee via Kofi: https://ko-fi.com/zillablitz I have a second PC simulation game channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@ZillaBlitzPC Thanks as always! Known Errors 1 - I should have rolled for additional flooding before I made the escape detection roll. 2 - Even though when we had 1 hull damage for exceeding test depth, I should have rolled the dice to check for damage. If you roll a snake eyes, you take an additional damage point. 3 - Not an error, but tactically it likely made more sense to fire our deck guns at the wounded tanker first rather than starting with torpedoes. The torpedoes are more valuable, and you can choose whichever method of attack you want to do first when engaging unescorted ships.

Long Range Recon Patrol – Mission 2: Recon the Villages The patrol is heading back into the field for Mission 2 of Mike Lambo’s Long Range Recon Patrol! NVA forces have been sighted operating in the area, and our patrol has been tasked with finding out exactly what is happening. The mission sounds straightforward: move into the area, recon the village, gather intelligence, and then make our way to the Extraction Zone (EZ). Of course, in Long Range Recon Patrol, nothing is ever quite that simple. Every movement through the jungle brings the possibility of enemy contact, unexpected events, and difficult decisions. We need to accomplish the reconnaissance mission while keeping the patrol in fighting shape long enough to reach the EZ. Will we successfully recon the village and extract, or will the NVA have other plans? 🎲 Game: Long Range Recon Patrol 🎖️ Designer: Mike Lambo 🗺️ Mission 2: Recon the Villages 🎯 Objective: Recon the village and extract from the EZ 📺 Channel: Tony’s Board Life If you enjoy solo wargaming, tactical decision-making, and narrative-driven gameplay, be sure to like, subscribe, and leave a comment. And if you've played this mission, let me know how your patrol fared! #LongRangeReconPatrol #MikeLambo #SolitaireWargame #SoloWargaming #Wargaming #BoardGames #VietnamWar #TonysBoardLife Long Range Recon Patrol Mission 2

The production dice are actually injection molded plastic and also in production they will be 19mm rather than the 16mm in this prototype. 2 - I mentioned that the cards will be "vinyl". It's actually a linen finish on the production version.
