Does anyone have anything on this machine seems very unpredictable :? :

This is my favourite machine at the moment. I think it's one of the fairest around. It will usually offer loads of shitty boards before it goes and not uncommon for it give boards on what is almost back-to-back credits, but if it's almost full it's definitely worth staying on and letting the feature stack JP time out for the repeat if you're not near the mega streak

Ive said this everytime someone has posted about Barmy Army and had a lot of people agree with me too.

Its one of the worst crests around with a ridiculous block on the central MS...Very few mid range features worth taking, barely ever fills the IM name, fucks you about on the center board only giving pocket change.

Id leave it well alone, there are way better barcrests out there. Or play Reds, far more profitable :)

I still seem to be doing quite well on this machine. The Mega streak is a lot easier to get if you can nudge in a win over £4.00 on the reels before going up onto the super (middle) board.

Though the mega streak rarely goes for more than £30, in fact I only think I've had it go for more twice, out of 10 or 11 times.

i've heard that the second from top feature (name is elluding me now) is easy jackpot, but I've never got that high up without thinking the M/s is on.

the boards on this can last forever, constantly putting you up/dpwn ALL the time!

Completely agree Dunhamzzzz

Personally I think the machine is a waste of time..

Barcrests new offering on test "rocker fellas" is awesome though.

yeh it's a dodgy machine, dont go for mega streak, jp likes to repeat even twice sometimes....


not sure on that rocker fellas, played shite the one I was on, but not had much experience with it so will give it a few more goes

Maybe ive just caught it at the right time the last two occasions I hit it then Ob?

Plays very weird, a lot different to other Crests.

E.g Offering a £15 board then the next 2 boards being a £1.20 and a £2 board.

Still simply used the BFU method of holding all throws/drops until i had "3 boulders" lit up...1 of the 3 drops always resulted in either adding a bonus, or add streak.

But im pretty sure youll have done that already.

take it easy.

yeh agreed it plays very wierd, lots of dead boards thrown in to put you off the scent...

probably will play out for MS like all the crests, may cost slightly more though I'm thinking...

best crest at the mo is throw a wobbler... class.

Still not seen a throw a wobbler yet at my end of the woods..

What do they play like? Streak potential? Method of play? Readability?

Care to comment Dunhamzz?

imagine a crest, easy to read/play, but actually fun aswell as you kind of have to think about your nudges, do you go for the upgrades etc, a lil bit like the thought you would put into a raiders. Unique gameplay.
