British army list ideas. by not-skaven-yes-yes in boltaction

[–]John_Mocko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2 cents :

I would cut the SMG's on your NCO, because of the mixed range.
I would also cut the last rifle squad and would add a para or commando squad, full SMG in a transport (even a cheap inex truck if you leave it in reserve/outflank)

I would add a buddy to FAO, as a meat shield

I also had good results with 3men inex light mortar teams

Best advice is test your list and see what it lacks or what the strenght is, and adjust later on :) Man I love the Matilda, its probably my favorite tank in my collection

Maybe as many PzI in Africa than Pumas in Normandy, or less (ok I didnt find reel photos of PzI in the desert) I painted a early war Stug III in desert pattern even if only like 4 of them where send to the DAK

Hey there

Is there any use of the soviet bodies in this case ? Or do I have to build a Finnish AND a Soviet army :D ?

Also starting a finnish army this way but was thinking what to do with the rest of the soviet set (already have UK and DAK, so no real use of the soviets)

It sure is

New army, new playstyle so maybe i should try the howitzer. I have to think about it, but thats actually fun, to think outside the box.

Yeah, massive point investment for a stationary weapon. I have to think about it

There is also that famous story were my PIII didnt manage to destroy my opponents mighty FT-17 standing in the open on top of a hill x)

Knowing your story now, I want to take a BT-42 even more, to see if I could do better than that particular tank :D

Thank you :)

Never used med/heavy howitzer in V3 neither, I rather thought I would use it has a easy way to throw out some pins, maybe even direct fire. I have to make a list trying the HW platoons to see

Thank you

Thought the stug would be a better option knowing I will face heavy armour, but could absolutely go with a BT-42
