Selleck Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 As the titel says: which kind of troops do you have in your Death Korps of Krieg army? I have no trouble with picking and selecting all the other elements in my army - I try to go with the Assault list - but I cant "crack the nut" with the troops. Do I run Grenadiers, in Storm Chimeras? Expensive, but hard hitting. Do I run with several Infantry Platoon? More feet for your buck, but trouble getting to forward objectives. Do I run a Mix of both: and in which kind of mix? Do I run Engineers, from the Siege list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulrock Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 I've always stuck with the infantry platoons and going for forlorn hope. The whole reason I was drawn to the army was the world war theme though so I'm a sucker for massed infantry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumour Control Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 If your using the list from IA 12 then forlorn hope is the way to go. Ive used it a few times, my regular opponent really doesnt like 120 kriegsmen that return after the platoons have been wiped out. Just try and destroy them all...

Troops on foot dont get very far, in my experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulrock Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Lately I've been trying to use grenadiers in chimeras as well to give mobility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
