Great review as always - thanks for posting this! I'm planning to introduce a number of my friends to Bolt Action this summer (we're still setting up a date for an intro game day), and videos like this are very helpful in helping them sift through the options. 105mm Sherman is a good choice; I'm more of a Lee guy myself, but that's mostly because 1) Easily Catches Fire doesn't come up that often, and 2) I like having two chances to knock things out/triggering two Recce results with a single activation. Plus it's just such a wonderful monstrosity, :)
Ive been running marines at my tournaments recently and have to throw in my vote for veteran USMC skirmishers... I find that they tend to get whittled down from enemy fire, so taling them vet allows more stability. Stubborn is also nice for countering enemy morale shenanigans, but that makes them fairly pricey. 8 man vets, 3 BAR for 119 pts is a solid footing for the rest of the force to specialize. I also like using the Lee alongside a bofors and mortar team to leverage good range. Bazooka in a jeep is an auto include for americans too. Good list!
Cool list 👍 I will skip wardog team and upgrade Jeep to Recce jeep Extra points use on some upgrades in marines maybe. Beside that I like this list. Sherman 105 it’s nice toy, and I start to like my 105 more than Stuart after last games.
I've seen that you do some critiques of lists submitted to yourself by your subscribers, im just curious as to how one can go about do that. Theres a couple of French lists ive been tinkering with that I'd like to get you're opinion on. Though, the twist is that I want to submit them via the Warlord army builder app instead of Easy Army as a sort of comparison between them. In my opinion, after using the app, I find it to be better than Easy Army as Easy Army allows you to pick units in the Reinforced Platoon that you really can't use outside of a specific campaign book scenario or theatre selector, or in the case of the Spahtruppen squad, gives you the impression that you can have 6 infantry squads in a reinforced platoon when in reality its supposed to be part of the 5 maximum squads you're allowed to have. Or the 5th Columnists who are only supposed to be used in two scenarios in the Battle of France campaign book and aren't legal anywhere else.
Thanks for the tutorial, Bo. Your videos are becoming the basis of my "what to model next" queue.
