Tonight brings on the urge to drink beer and paint, listening to random old school metal as the rain pelts down outside. Life is awesome
On Sunday I got in a rematch with my Japanese against Wills Germans. I used a slightly refined list from what I’d previously been using. It ended up working out rather well, mainly due to the absurd dice rolling that I was doing. Will’s blog post goes over the game so I wont repeat that. http://willsramblingsnz.blogspot.co.nz. But it was a sound beating in the favour of the Japs.
Here’s my list I used, which I think I’ll drop the LMG’s and use the points on something else for the next games, as it's only 1 extra dice with the LMG's at an extra 20 points. Seems a bit of a waste.
Japanese Reinforced Platoon
Japanese Order Dice: 12
Platoon #1
1 Second Lieutenant
2 Infantry
4x IJA Infantry Squads Regular @120 each
1 NCO with Rifle
1 Infantry with Light Machine gun
8 Infantry with Rifle 24"
1x Medium Machine Gun team Regular @50
1x Sniper team Regular @50
1x Flamethrower team Regular @50
2x Suicide Anti-Tank Team Regular @20 each
1x Type 94 Tankette Regular @70
1x Type 3 Chi-Nu Medium Tank Regular @190I forgot to change the lens on my camera so I only snapped a few pic’s of the game.
Yeap. Soundly beaten. It's unusual for you to be drinking so much beer.... no more whiskey at home? :) I just finished off the bottle of Scapa last night. Very nice! Re: the list, I was going to say on Sunday, but forgot. Drop the 3rd dude with your Lt. A 2 man team is best (harder to hit). Bolster up the infantry squads. I also reckon changing one to that squad that can take all the mortars is a good way to go too.
