Japanese army.

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.

Well since this new set came out, I already got 3 of the 5 soviet rares.  I got the Soviet M3 Lee, IS3, and the T-35.  My favorite out of those 3 has got to be the Soviet M3 Lee.

KV-1
Soviet M3 Lee
Mosin Nagants x6
Comissar
PPsh x2

Its not a flawless build, but it is a build with the Soviet M3 Lee.  :lol:

Yes the Tiger will be unleashed.  Your right though too much risk and I feel it would demoralize my opponent too much.  I have a pak 40 and sfz 250 I’ll use.

I’ve been reading a lot on Mortars any thoughts?  I have a disc. Spotter and a 81 mm what about mg42’s I have a couple of those too.  It just seems a steep price to pay (20pts) for a mortar and support.

Again I was skunked on sspg at my local shop.  Are SS stormtroopers as good?

@FranceTanks:

Could this be the end? This army seems indestructable. I cannot beat it.

Veteran Tiger - 65
4 SS Panzergrenadier - 20
Haupsterfuher - 7
Grizzled Veteran - 8

100 Pts.

I beat an army very similar to this except that there was no Grizzled Vet and the other guy had a sniper…and the builds were slightly larger.
Go w/ what Der Lieter said and avoid vehicles. My build was an all airbore one…British.
Try this:
Defiant Paratrooper x 10 = 80 pts
Inspiring Hero x 1 = 9 pts
Veteran SMLE Riflemen x 2 = 10 pts (remember these guys have steely resolve)
Total = 99 pts

Paras and Aussies should be able to toast the few infantry there. Protect the hero so that he can give you speed to trap and kill the tank. You should be able to keep it at least disrupted once you trap it.

Heres the deal. Its my 3rd consecutive defeat against my friend who plays the axis. Here is his starting lineup (he doesnt really vary)

1 x SS-Panzer IV Ausf. F2
1 x StuG III Ausf D
1 x Wehrmacht Expert Sniper
2 x SS-Haupsturmführer
2 x SS-Panzergrenadier
2 x MG 42 Machine-Gun Team
1 x Luftwaffe Infantrymen
1 x Panzerschreck
1 x Imperial SNiper
1 x SnLF Paratrooper

Any Ideas to Kick his butt out of the game ???

We’ll, my record just went to 4 for 4 playing a tournament scenario using the Urban Combat Objective maps. This means I also cut the army down 1 figure for the 15 miniature limit. They were Nazis… they where nasty and the army was 100 points consisting of:

1 Panzer IV - 30 Points
2 Panzer II - 18 Points
9 SS Panzergrenadiers - 45 Points
1 SS Haupsturmfuhrer - 7 Points

This game was won in 7 rounds also.

Last Thursday I played this army:

USA - M1 Garand x3
USA - “Red Devil” Captain
USA - Jeep x2
UK - SMLE No. 4
UK - 6-Pounder Antitank x2
UK - Vickers MG Team
UK - Humber Scout Car x2
USSR - T-34/76

Despite my crappy roles during the game I managed to hold on and almost win, despite losing my T-34 to a Tiger-I.

Some key things that I learned during the game were that cover is very important. The Jeeps were useful to get soldiers to the front very fast.

The Humber Scout Cars are good but just don’t leave them out in the open for attack, that’s what makes the strike and fade very useful.

Yea it’s an ancient old thread with 3 layers of dust on it, soo what/  :-P
