Nice batrep. Great paint jobs and good terrain. You may want to double check the AA rules. Onlyt dedicated AA like Gophers get full rate of fire and normal FP checks against aircraft. Machines on other vehicles - even if they say AA next to their name - but not in their notes - get ROF 1 and must reroll FP tests. (Unless they say "Helicopter" in their notes then they don't have to reroll FP but still only ROF 1.)
Also remember those T-64s would not get cover from the wheat field from the Chieftains on the hill because they have higher elevation. Same if behind hedges or walls. Also keep those Chieftains on the hill hull down so they have cover from return fire.
Thanks, enjoyed. A new period to me though I do have the Seven Days to the Rhine rules from Great Escape Games, so I will get them out and check out the stats for the troops that you used for comparative purposes.
Nice painted army =) Of all the armies in fow/ty, the brittish ty is the one i am having the most fun to play =) if you are having problem with air as brittish, i would go for a unit of British Tracked Rapier SAM Section, the have great range and fire rate, i almost never play without 2 aa units nowdays
@@scotty7906 was this a one off purchase or a particular seller on eBay that sells multiples of these? We’re just getting into Team Yankee but are seriously lacking terrain.

@@scotty7906 cheers, seen a few other sellers on eBay which have the 15mm MDF buildings but they were unpainted. This will be a good way to fill out a board as the official TY terrain pieces are quite expensive.
@@scotty7906 I assume your cornfields are cut carpet tiles? Are the hills self made? And the river pieces / bridge? Also the blown up markers? Sorry for all the questions. We’re pretty much sorted for 2 small forces but are severely lacking in terrain.
You've omitted the most potent piece of British Army hardware! Where's the NAAFI wagon dishing out brews?! LOL :)

Great battle report, all the best Garry

Yes I found the T-80s and challengers to be very much the same. I think the t-64s just got lucky against the chieftains
