TorontoBizz · 100 point Axis builds : 1941

We are having a tournament on March 15th in Toronto. It will be 100 points, 1941 limit. One of the players wanted to see the opposition armies in advance to prepare. I obliged him. Here is what I have.

I created six, 100 point 1941 armies. I will post 5 of them. When we play I will roll a d6. I will play the army I roll, see chart below

6. Mystery army

Any feed back would be appreciated. The mystery army is most likely going to be a mixed axis army (Germany, Japan, Italy, Romania, Hungary) so give me your best ideas. I'd really like something cool.

Well we had the tournament and I did very well.

My first game was my Japanese army vs a Russian build

2 x T-34
3 x PTRD-41
1 x BA-10M
1 x BM13 Rocket launcher
1 x Commisar
1 x Mosin-Nagant

We played on map #15 from Eastern Front. My armour was taken pretty early on but that gave my infantry time to close in. The little armour I had was used to take out his light armour. I used Banzai to close assault his T-34s. The SNLF Fanatics proved hard to kill. And in the end took out the T-34s.

2nd game was my allied build

3 x KV-1s
1 x Mosin Nagant

vs.
2 x Panzer 4 Ausf E
1 x Panzer 4 Ausf D (Elite)
2 x KAr 98 Ks
1 x MG 42
1 x 88 mm
1 x hamster
1 x PAK 38

We played on map #4 from the starter set. I parked all my KV-1s on the hills in the corner. First round I took out the Elite Panzer 4. The second round I took out the 2 Panzer 4 ausf. E. My KV-1s were tough. One got disrupted and later damaged, which I got to ignore. It was later re-damaged and killed by the 88. By the 4th round he had moved up the 2 KAR98ks and killed my Mosin-Nagant. I was able to kill both KARs. In the 5th round I took his 88 out and then the PAK 38, which won me the game.

My third game was against the first Russian build, but this time my opponent chose to replace 1 PTRD with an expert sniper.

I got to use my suprise army
1 x 88mm
1 x 88mm with shield
2 x MG 42 sandbagged
4 x Grizzled Vet
1 x Wermacht Vet

We played on the EF Stalingrad map. My 88s were useless. Thankfully the Grizzled vets did all the work. My opponent used the BM13 rocket salvo but failed to kill any of my guys. The Gizzled vets moved up slowly, ignoring all the disruptions they got. It was a slaughter. In the end I only lost one MG team.

This is the first time I won all my games. I'm pretty happy about this. Thanks for reading.

Seems like you did really well, looking at your army lists it seems like they were a bit tank heavy.

TorontoBizz

It depends on the nation. I have a limited amount of units for Hungary and Romania so I used what I had. My German army was designed to take on Russian armour.

Well conratulations! I like your allied build with the 3 heavy tanks, I find using a group of ISU-122's in a 200 point game works very well.
