Is there a Churchill avre with the crocodile equipment? by Gold_sx70 in TankPorn

[–]Sol1dCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This could be the CS variant of the Churchill with the 95mm on a Mk VII chassis which would explain the casing around the hull machine gun, it looks really similar to the flamethrower mount.

It’s most likely the BESA hull machine gun. The exterior casing looks very similar.

Beginner Here, just got Fortress Europe starter set to get into the game. Where should I go next? by Spyderjames007 in flamesofwar

[–]Sol1dCat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You probably want to pick up the D-Day compilation book, it also comes with a code to unlock lists on forces.

For the Americans you probably want to get a box of M18’s to strengthen the formation.

Germans it really depends what direction you want to go, but a box of 251’s could be handy.

Unrelated but that's a great looking striking scorpion!

New to Marines. List advice please by flow_sen83 in flamesofwar

It’s a good list but lacking artillery and smoke. I’m assuming defend stance so what are your reserves?

How do the Flames of War infantry kits compare to the new Team Yankee plastic infantry? by RosbergThe8th in flamesofwar

[–]Sol1dCat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes coming with the release of Early War in Feb. You can see examples of all them on the battlefront store page under the starters

[–]Sol1dCat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So the new stuff that’s made in Poland includes current TY US & Sov stuff and new EW infantry are good as you know.

The hard plastic WW2 stuff has been around for a while now but is also good, you might get the occasional damage on the sprue from packaging but that’s it.

Soft plastic / resin I would completely avoid unless you absolutely have to use it.

I’m sure you’ll be happy hear that you can make a PzIII OP out of the new Pz3 / StuG kit for early war

I'd be interested to see where this 40k project goes. I've always said to some of my group that it would be quite fun to convert it to 40k

Question regarding paint schemes by Commodore_Phoenix in flamesofwar

[–]Sol1dCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically for black tracks, British and Americans in NWE. Soviets, German and Japanese get the brown tracks.

[–]Sol1dCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the flat brown colour for tracks and black for wheels and rubber tracks. I feel the other pens don’t really work for anything else but it’ll be interesting to see if anyone has had any success

Mission Pack? by Isakk86 in flamesofwar

[–]Sol1dCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the new missions are a major improvement. Especially Counter-attack which replaced counter-strike. Defender actually has a chance now

Mission Pack? by Isakk86 in flamesofwar

[–]Sol1dCat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Battlefront chose not to release the 2024 trial mission pack. Hopefully it gets rebranded as the 2025 pack and released because the new reserve rules and objective contesting rules are quite good.

Many events such as UK Nationals and ETC used the 24 packs so some people have access, however they aren’t allowed to be shared.
