Today we will be doing Greeks.
Greeks you say? They were only in the war for like a 3 weeks!!! I know I know, but I like the idea of taking a seemingly under powered army in Bolt Action and try to win with them on the table.....and have fun doing it.
So here goes.. playing around with http://boltaction.easyarmy.com/ I have come up with this two platoon mirrored list consisting of:
1 2nd Lt with a SMG (borrowed from the Italians of course)
8 x Reg Infantry all rifles and Tough Fighters (representing mountain troops)
8 x Reg Infantry all rifles
8 x Reg Infantry all rifles
1 x Reg Medium Mortar
1 x Reg Light AT gun
1 x Reg L3/35 Tankette with Dual MMGs
1 x Veteran FT-17 with Turret MMG
1000pts even, 16 activations
So using this resource from my buddy C-Bax of the WWPD pages, I used his articles on HIS Greeks and used it as a base start.
My package has arrived in the mail, from Black Tree Design, I picked up 48 Italian Riflemen, and a pack of 4 Italians with SMG. These will fill in as my Greek infantry.
Next blog, I will have these cleaned up and ready to go...
