Guest grunto Posted June 29, 2000 Share Posted June 29, 2000 dudes, i must say that this little vehicle is my favorite in combat mission. if you buy it with regular crew it's only 50 points. so whatever i said about the stuart, i like the m8 HMC even better. =g= andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Scott Clinton Posted June 29, 2000 Share Posted June 29, 2000 Most fun so far... Plot one of these across hilly terrain, in the open. Then lock onto view 1. Its a fun ride! ------------------ Please note: The above is solely the opinion of 'The Grumbling Grognard' and reflects no one else's views but his own.

Guest Scott Clinton Posted July 2, 2000 Share Posted July 2, 2000 How much ammo does it carry? ------------------ Please note: The above is solely the opinion of 'The Grumbling Grognard' and reflects no one else's views but his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest grunto Posted July 3, 2000 Share Posted July 3, 2000 <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Scott Clinton: How much ammo does it carry? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> now that's a good point... i'm playtesting a scenario where the m8 hmc rush ran out of ammo and they're retreating now while the sherman m4 is moving in with 60-some rounds of HE ammo. but an m8 does usually carry 30-something HE rounds so two of them are only 100 points. uh sgt. grunto has 2 pillboxes, a gun, and some infantry casualties caused in that one, 'the siding.' andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshK Posted July 3, 2000 Share Posted July 3, 2000 I had an M8 take out an StuH, an 81mm mortar halftrack, a 20mm halftrack, and a standard 251 halftrack. Plus kill seven infantry. Not back for the little guy. [This message has been edited by JoshK (edited 07-03-2000).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formerly Babra Posted July 4, 2000 Share Posted July 4, 2000 I'm developing a real love affair with anything small, fast and armed with something. I got so annoyed being pinned down in one scenario while my tanks were slowly getting shot up, I took a Stuart on a buttoned-up death ride all by itself. It cleaned out the whole town single-handed!

Guest Michael emrys Posted July 5, 2000 Share Posted July 5, 2000 Which is but one more example of something that I've believed for a while: sometimes the bold course is also the safest one. Of course, you have to use some sense in how you go about this. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
