- Following Jacob's lead Tyler went ahead and shared his list for a competitive US army for an upcoming international tournament World Open War.
Don't be shy! Come pick at the list and share your thoughts on what makes the US competitive!
And don't worry. You'll never be as disgusted as Tyler is with himself - Tyler

If you demote the lieutenants to inex, and make the infantry units all 8 man (good skirmish units), do you have enough points for a jeep, or even jeep/flamer combo? Your bazooka team won’t do much because he’s footslugging. Only thing I would change tbh. Good video, can’t wait for the British stinking bishop!
Just picked up a US army myself. I'm a really big fan of being competitive and can't wait to play more of it.
Interesting. Not overly familiar with the US army builds but there are some things I would change... The dice count to start with. The pintle mmgs on the dakka Stuarts - to make use of them and not leave it open-topped you'll have wait for the end of the turn to use them, hence the reason for ensuring a better than average count. With that in mind your opponent (well me) will pin it to make it ineffective. Use the points saved to give the Zooka team some wheels (whenever I see flamer/zooka teams on foot I always think great no need to worry about that for now). I've two minds about recce - can save vehicles but also means that they don't fire, - so if pressed, and you recce the tank, job done done for that turn. Take the Lts as inexperienced and keep them out of LoS unless you plan to use them with the skirmish units then regular with one other. With the infantry squads I'd even out the numbers to save some points. Death Star units have one major drawback - pins, preferably delivered by HE.
After playing a total of 1 game where someone else wrote my list for me this is a terrible list!! So many holes in it.
Just joking bud, comment for the algorithm gods
The most trolly US vehicle I got and use a lot is my armored twin bazooka jeep. I have lost count how many people just do not want to push any of their vehicles up to the center or objectives with it just sitting and waiting to roll up and pop two shape charge rounds into them. And if it does miss on the very next round just recce on who ever decides to take a crack at it with anything above small arms.
E7-7??? Thoughts
Alright if it can close the distance to flamethrower range as if it is outside 12 inches it can't hurt or fire at anything above a soft skin. Sure you can pin open top but that is just it you can only pin with the MG against DV 7 vehicles.
Weird it's been awhile for me but generally tournaments used to not allow multiple company's, or more than 12 order dice. From what I've seen list wise I don't think I would enjoy this tournament format.
We currently have a huge amount of variety for our local scene, not all of them as competitively focused as this. :)
