Battle points standards

[Cross]

Hi Rommel,

I actually think you are asking the wrong question.

The real issue is: what sort of force do you like to field?

This game was designed for battalion level forces, and this size IMO is the most fun. Not so large that you can't keep track of all the units and officers (and takes ages to play a turn), and not so small that there's no room for strategy and where one serious tank loss cripples you.

Personally, I usually like a five company battalion.
3 Infantry companies
1 Tank company
1 Support company (artillery, transport, scouts, armoured cars etc.)

I may add a MG platoon or some extra tanks or whatever I think will help reach the objectives. I think this usually costs me about 2500 points.

Just don't make the mistake of affording yourself tons of excessive luxury items. This will just weaken your battalion. Form the battalion with minimal support to get the job done.

Once you've decided on the makeup of your battalion, then see how much it's going to cost.

Hope this helps
