    I did some digging, and it looks like the smoke discharger/box combo is for the USFK M48A5's used by the US in Korea. The ROK M48's have smoke dischargers but not the attached ammo box. The US M48's also look like they had M2 .50 cals on the Urdan cupola vs the ARNG/reserve tanks stateside that just used the M60D's and did not mount the smoke dischargers. I have not been able to pin down a transition date for the M48A5 being replaced by M60A3's in Korea. I didn't get there till 91 and they had already transitioned to M1A1s.

      I believe that the M48A5s in Korea got sold to the ROK, where they became WRSA versions (most distinctly, no side skirts). There was a trade dispute between the US and ROK about selling the latter the M60 so it would have been held back from deployment to prevent the Koreans from reverse-engineering it (which they did a lot of at the time) and to prevent diplomatic issues with the US ally. The US continued to refuse selling the ROK the M60, which led to the ROK working with a German firm to develop the K1, although the US decided to muscle in on that one and the end of the K1's development was with Chrysler, with the US maintaining export control on a number of components of the tank while doing some tech transfer to South Korea. However, as the K1 was all domestic manufacturing it required a longer lead-up time so the M47 and M48 continued on in service well past their nominal use-by date. Given that most of the DPRK's tank fleet were some variant of T54/55 or T-62 it wasn't a pressing issue, but the later Cheonma-Ho series (T-62 derivatives) were hard enough to require better armour and a 120mm gun on ROK tanks.

    Thanks for the video. FUBAR may be slightly harsh for VDV Afgantsy. Sure, only 6 teams per platoon, but hit on 4+, the same as W. Germans - also 6 teams per platoon and hit on 4+. But the VDV have a better counterattack of 3+, have RPG-7VRs, etc. Also, I'm not sure whether Defend stance was considered when ranking. Then RDFs, upgraded Bradleys and BMP-3s are less useful since they have FA4+ and usually need to be in Reserves.

    "There is no way to get PKM machine guns..." false. Team Yankee is ostensibly a (alt)historical game. They dot pay royalties to general dynamics when you buy a box of BFVs. There is nothing whatever stopping you from getting PKMs by the armful from old glory, QRF, empress, or literally anyone else that makes 15mm cold war figures.

      That is true. But these discussions are very much centred around a FLGS supply chain. Ultimately, "3D printer goes bbrrtt" fixes many issues (though also renders most the content discussion moot), even before looking at the wide variety of potential third parties. Though, you'd have to be really desperate to need to go to QRF.

  • @el-cee
    @el-cee หลายเดือนก่อน

    I ordered both the USMC & Soviet box, while i only want the BMPs and Infantry, the discount is enough to pick them over individual boxes. For a while i considered pushing back the BMPs, but the bonus sprue was enough to buy them now and build them later. Iirc i mentioned this before, but even i got one, the Soviet box is a slight miss, mostly due to the tanks and the aircraft. To be honest, i am no fan of aircraft and helicopters in the boxes. Of course i know they are an important part of the game, but i think most boxes would be better without them, either making them cheaper or adding a few other models. But now to the USMC rifle company, overall i like this. When i read the instructions and read the bit about leaving the UH-1s in reserve i had to chuckle, since that was something you predicted in the Tier List video (with my hate for [BF] resin, i ended up printing my own AAVPs). Yes, the AH-1s are not quite correct, but unless there is something else, they will have to suffice. Much like gust0o mentioned, the use of Thermoplastic bits for the M60 is... well... a slight letdown. I grabbed another box of Humvees and printed some Harriers and the Army is complete...

    • @breakthroughassault4791

      My buddy with a printer has found a AH-1W model so that takes care of that. Mike and I often struggle with the aircraft in an army box. I generally favour NATO attack helicopters as a pair is still viable. But strike aircraft and Hinds often feel somewhat redundant.

      I agree, i wasn't happy, when i found those in the box. The turret parts fitted well enough, but i couldnt get rid of the warpin of the hull ERA bit, tried heating and rebending but nothing worked. It's not super noticeable, but you can notice a slight bend. After the T-64 & T-72 i was really hoping for a second plastic sprue, maybe with the extra bits for the Israeli variants, since those are the next army on the horizon. On the other hand, 5 M60 with era are enough for my Marines, so i can repurpose the rest i own to make donate to my Austiran Army.

    • @breakthroughassault4791

    Just got my boxes: The Russian box gets the mentioned heavy weapons sprue including enough bases to build all weapon teams (i was wondering how they would do this). The Marines box gets you a bunch of free desert storm theme tokens, the M60 bits are (sadly) resin, the crew models for all HMMVV variants are included (incl Stingers). The unit cards are odd, you get every Marines related card Harriers, AA7VP, LAV-AD; UH-1s, not a bad thing of course, but usually you only get what's in the box. Let me quote a note, that i found funny, because you literally mentioned it in the video: " Rifle Platoons can have either the AA7VP transports or UH-1 helicopters. Until you have decided which transport option you want (!) you can simply field the helicopter and leave them liotering of the table.

    I have to disagree with your asessment on the T-64BV vs T-80 situation. I expect that we are going to see more NATO 120mm and against the AT 22/23 it makes a huge difference if you are front armour 20 vs 18. Soviet mid-tier tanks are just in a weird spot where they are too squishy against elites but also don't have enough fire power against hordes - just like NATO engineers intended.

    I can see reason for most of the changes. Some things went to far, maybe, other things should have been adjusted, also maybe, but overall it is good, that the system is actively monitored. My major issues might be the horrible layout of the pdf including the points changes, inculding the points change might have been useful info, because this is relevant information and that forces is not updated at this point (and if Games Workshop tought me anything, it is that handeling with multiple books and FAQs for points is just horrible). At least you haven't done a tank tier list, that would have been a mess now. Always enjoying Time of Day, keep it coming.

    I think the big thing they've failed to reduce the points on, are NATO missile only Helos. How many people take Lynx or PaH with TOW? I don't as they're too expensive for 2 or 4 missile shots, especially as you can't move and fire with them and the Loiter rules (if I understand them right) means that a lot of the time they miss the first turn and arrive on the 2nd and don't fire until the 3rd turn. When you say things like the T-72 and S-103 (S Tank) are bad, that might be right for competitive games but what about themed games? S-tank formations Vs T-72 formations might be a good match up, also Merkavas Vs T-72. I think potentially playing sub-par forces against each other might make for a more fun game.

    The USMC box has 2 platoons of infantry with no transports. There's 5 M60's with ERA, 4 LAV-25's, 2 HMMV Tows, 3 M109's and 2 Cobras. The US Bradley starter has 2 infantry platoons, 9 Bradleys, 3 M1's, 3 MLRS, 2 VADS and an M113 Op. The Soviet BMP has 2 infantry platoons, 9 BMP-1/2's, 3 T-80's, 2 BRDM's and 2 Frogfoots.

I think I might get the USMC box, as I want the infantry and M60's, plus I can find uses for the rest of it, apart from the Cobras

    It would make a lot of sense for Battlefront to make it easier to run legal ‘normal’ 50 or 60pt lists for a team Yankee to ease people on. Real argument for soviet companies rather than battalions. I suppose you can do it with shock.

    The Australian version of the Mk 5 is still available ( as of June 2024) in Resin WITH the auxiliary fuel tank from Battlefront. Centurion (VAN040). Other retailers may be available. OR you could just steal the fuel tank from the resin and attach it to the plastic model.

      Possibly but plastics are normally a big part of their release schedule for new books so I can see why they wouldn’t sneak them into here. Especially as this is a limited run
