Well Ill give u some tips later but Here. Always have plenty of infantry because infantry can kill a tank and there cheaper. Tanks are good but always keep inf away other then your own. Also in close quarters low range attacks is all you need but in a mix get a variety. Finally keep an eye out for opertonities.
Have fun hope tosee uy on the play by forums.
Suggestions for my 100 point Japanese army.
-
Don’t forget about the Ho-Ni. That is a great little tank for 12 points.

The Guadalcanal scenarios have some Japanese armies made up of all Arisaka’s and Machine Guns. They are in a defensive position and very tough.

As I look through these first two sets i see that the Japs are better off with just soldiers, but i can be wrong. The jap tanks never did make an allied tank sweat (exept for the chinese). Should i wait for the air units, which were the real japanese “DEAL?”, or should i give it a try as it is. I want to make an offensive Japanese army…
I said offensive. Almost all armies defend better than they attack, but the challenge is on the offence.

I could have sworn you called me at midnight last night and shouted into my ear, “I SAID DEFENSIVE!!!”

Don’t forget about the Ho-Ni. That is a great little tank for 12 points.
I think the Ho-Ni is a better bet than the Chi-Ha and they are worth the same.

ezto,
how effective is your Japanese army
can you post your army, unless the list in the first
page is your army :-D
but either way can you tell me if it is effective
and if so against what type of builds -
Ill be truthful. My army has no problem dealing with infantry and light tanks 5/5 or below. It is kind of slow moving. It cannot effectively deal with Tanks like the Easy 8 or Churchill though. The Ho-Ni is the best shot, but its a one time shot. The fact that i have 3 of them gives me 3 tries to destroy. I failed to create an offensive army, but I doubt that the Japs can do that at all. If this army was to hold an objective it would come out victorious unless facing a heavy tank. If this army was to capture an objective it would also come out victorious, but not as certain. The fact that the japs have to stop and destroy everything annoys me. They have no way of ignoring troops like other nations do. Best asset Anti-Soldier. Worst asset Anti-Tank.

This game is great, but i cant find anyone to play with. They should make something like AA minies online, just the way they run MTG online.
