Now, that army list only cover may 40, as we collapsed fairly quickly against the Blitzkrieg, but did you know that at the interwar period, in september 1939, Belgium was actually the 7th most armoured army in Europe?
Well, the problems lay elsewhere, but that doesn't stop me from feeling a little patriotic and start building a small 1000 points force for them anyways. With Scotia Grendel having packs of both infantry, the T-13 and T-15 light tanks and the ecellent 47mm at gun, it won't be to hard to get the force actually build up, nor expensive. For the "heavier" Renault tanks, their french range gives all that is needed as well, so for less then 20 GBP I was able to get the full army list I had written up.
Standing at only 1000 points, this force as such is good enough for a short game (about 2 - 3 hours tops) which can be played on a small surface and allows me to possibly even film our battles if we get round to it for YouTube!
The planned army for now (I still have left overs from the packs above for MMGs, AT guns, ;ore regular infantry, etc...) though will consists of the following:
CO and an HQ (7)
Infantry Recce Platoon
3 Infantry Platoons
81mm Mortar Support
47mm AT Gun
105mm Artillery Field Gun
3 AMC35 Tanks
3 FT-17 Tanks
3 T-13 Tank Hunters
3 T-15 Tankettes
That is also the COMPLETE armoured might the Belgian list can take in BKC4, no matter how big or small the force would be hehehe...
Now to get those painted up once the AHPC starts end of december...
I`ll keep you posted as the army progresses!
