Quotes (from this video)
- I don't know what Rodney was doing but it was a mistake I should have rolled three dice
- I'm gonna move my heavy Recon Grand here so they can hit the hammer
- The real challenge in this decision was whether or not the heavy Recon grandiers should go after the Hammers or after the tank Busters
- The nice thing about that is even if we removed one of the hits that I rolled it doesn't change the outcome from the combat
- I'm gonna move and attack with Ludwig
- The main objective here is to try to put some suppression token on these units because they're behind hard cover
- The only problem is they still have a reaction and a suppression token so they can't actually do anything during this unit phase
- Now the trick here is at the beginning of Luke's unit phase there wasn't any reaction tokens or suppression tokens on these tank Busters so if he had tried to move the zombies in at the beginning I would have been able to do an attack reaction
- Well I am in quite a pickle as they say in the military
- I doubt they say that
- I'm gonna give an order to my last remaining Hammer model here and rather than go run and hide which I certainly considered I'm gonna jump him behind this crate hopefully be able to keep him in hard cover from those heavy Recon grenadiers
- Well it's Luke's unit phase once again you know what that means we have to end the episode here and turn things over to you guys
- I don't know what to take away from that unit phase I mean yeah you definitely accomplished what you set out to do
- I am closing the Gap a little bit here there's a chance yet for me a small chance but honestly I still have a couple of units that are you know on the brink here

Quotes (from this video)
- Hit the Silk is truly wonderful.
- It is chaos. It is pure narrative. It is like playing a movie.
- It's that kind of narrative storytelling, which is why Hit the Silk should definitely be on your radar when it comes back to Kickstarter very, very soon.
- The Kickstarter will come with content from the Extra Cargo expansion.
