I think folks should call time on the 3 Training KTs. 41 points for one platoon with 6 dice. For the same points you can get a Berlin Panzer group with 9 Careful/Rel/Vet Pz IVs and 4 Wirblewinds. It's easier to defend objectives with more platoons. Good fight though. Bit of a miracle result for the FJs!
You were right, FV infantry on defense is great with counterattacks...great report as always, and great lists in the first game. About second battle, I'm thinking about playing a soviet list at Badajoz 2024 (next October, just because I like weird and unrated armies (nowadays) 😅
That soviet list is cheeky because you got the 3 panthers to go in ambush. And if you didn't fancy having the aggressive infantry you could put the red banner lot instead
Two things to comment on: 1) I really like using lighter colored material for basing as he did with the FJ, and 2) the next list I'm going to run is going to be the FJ Stug Company from the D-Day book. If you take one platoon of Stuh's, then you can pretty much fit everything else available to the formation in 100 points. Satisfies my autism.
Thank you! Still the best FOW games on the internet!
Thank you very much

Canadians just didn't fancy it that day
@@valleygamingfowmesbgswl when the dice say no...what can you do?
I would agree that Rob's opponents could use better lists sometimes but Rob's are pretty good. 2 Training KTs (and a lucky card) should be enough!
@user-su8ei7lp1p it's so tempting for the king tigers
Excellent battle reports matey, very enjoyable.
Cheers bud. How's the hobby going with you ?
@valleygamingfowmesbgswl not playing as much as I would like. Haven't had a game in 2 months. Watching you and Frank play is the closest I get.

Yes you can with the StuG company yes you can.
