So last night I churned out: 12 infantry stands, 2x HMG stands and 4x command stands. Which I think is not a bad effort really. all painted and based in one evening.
Some highlights are still needed tonght but they are table ready.
Not sure I'll take it but this is what I am thinking of:
Hungarian Motorised Infantry (CV)
HQ + Shrek 50
9x R/MG + P/F 195
9x R/MG + P/K 190
2x HMGs 70
3x Hungarian Pak
40s 155
3x Hungarian
Panthers 550
3x Zrinyi 225
2x Nimrods 115
3x Nebelwerfers
(CT) 85
Sporadic HS
129s 115
1750
Of course I still need the Zrinyi's, Hungarian Pak 40s and Hungarian Nebelwerfers. Tonights job is to convert three panthers to make them Hungarian ones.

Hmmm I too am running Hungarians at the Masters, but as a laugh going for an armoured force..... not sure if I will be laughing at the end of the weekend though.

Any Zinyri's?
ReplyDeleteStormtoopering is for wossies!
Still tying to sort out the best tank support options, as thinking of only 2 panthers but that might not be enough
Craig
Nice looking army Craig, I always love seeing Hungarian armies.
DeleteYou have to have Zrinyi II's, not only do they look cool, they are also great with breakthrough gun!
Having played a lot with Hungarians 2 Panthers can be enough but you do need to be careful.

Thanks Ben, I've ordered the Zrinyi's and they will be added once I have them. 2 panthers would be used as heavily tank destroyers to snipe rather than engage head on, but I am leaning towards 3 of them as they will be more of a threat.
DeleteI'm also pondering artillery options:
3x trained nebelwerfers are very cheap (85 pts)
105 artillery has smoke and not too badly priced for bog standard artillery (195 pts)
The 149mm howitzers don't have smoke but are pretty cheap for AT 5/FP 2+
