MY list for bauhaus.
« on: October 29, 2006, 07:58:42 PM »
Alrighty I put this list together at the laundry mat. It uses what I have now and I hope I read the book right on this so here it goes.

Grunts

First unit.
7 Ducal Militia extra ablative armor
Ducal SGT  extra ablative armor
Ducal HMG specialist  extra ablative armor.

Second unit.
7 Ducal Militia extra ablative armor
Ducal SGT extra ablative armor
Ducal HMG specialist  extra ablative armor.

Third Unit.
6 Ducal Militia extra ablative armor
Ducal SGT extra ablative armor.
Ducal HMG specialist extra ablative armor.

fourth unit.
5 Hussars extra ablative armor
Hussar SGT extra ablative armor
Hussar HMG specialist extra ablative armor

5th unit
5 Hussars extra ablative armor
Hussar SGT extra ablative armor
Hussar HMG specialist extra ablative armor

Support
Strike Skimmer

Strike Skimmer.

The total for the force is 991. I did this by hand between loads so the math may be off. Any way I just had to use the strike skimmers they are too cool looking not to ;D.

I am not a fan of Extra Ablative Armor, unless I have nothing else on which to spend the points.  EAB is only good against bullets and arrows (and you don't see too many arrows in this game) - it does not work against rockets, autocannons, flamers, close combat, etc.

You've spent 38 PC on EAB - that translates to either two more Hussars or Militia - take the models.  The extra 6 AC's of shooting more than makes up for the lack of EAB.  Besides, Bauhaus already has some of the best armor for the points, in the game.

Here is the list that I came up with using your list:

Grunts

1st unit.
7 Ducal Militia
1 Ducal SGT 
2 Ducal HMG Spec

2nd unit.
7 Ducal Militia
1 Ducal SGT 
2 Ducal HMG Spec

3rd Unit.
7 Ducal Militia
1 Ducal SGT 
2 Ducal HMG Spec

4th unit.
4 Hussars
Hussar SGT
Hussar HMG

5th unit
4 Hussars
Hussar SGT
Hussar HMG

Support
2 Strike Skimmers

Total - 993 PC

This gives you more HMG's, and more models, which translates to more wounds.  I like having two skimmers - mobility and firepower, with good AR/WD's.

of course slightly off-toppic, but what about the 1support/2units-rule?

I think 2 support in a normal 1000P force is not overly powerful (and not all supp is super strong... and there are hardly enough points to buy 4 units+2 strong supports.)

-> this list looks fine, but a bit monotone..
it is a pretty obviouse army if you want 2 SK in 1000P... taken or given some details..

@SK: nice tank, esp. because ambush! what about the optional troopers? 25 P is a bit expensive, but why not? they increase the shock value of the vehicle at only +16 P compared to ducal grunts..

@ dmcgee -Thanks I can deal with that list. Now all I need is two more HMG specialists.
@ Aldrien. I find you learn the game best with the basic trooper. When I can competently show up to game I will spice the list up.

that's the best way to do it...it makes it a minimal investment and you have to learn some good tactics to make up with the deficiencies of the basic troops...

in the end it makes you a better player...

karma for you for thinking strategically...

Thats a list of troops that will give you headaches on the field when you face them. I started out with Bauhaus. I thoroughly enjoyed playing them.  After you get the feel for your list, try to get a large squad of Jaegers with HMG Specs and a Jaeger Kapt. It makes for some interesting tactics and can be a GINORMOUS pain in the butt.  ;D

ya know...once you get the basics of that force, you could go with ANY of the Bauhaus special forces...from facing them fairly regularly, I've found that none of them are what I would call lousy...

but Jaegers are a good choice, but hard to find...

B...
what am I doing HELPING people with Bauhaus...

Dave I like your list but me personally I would drop 1 Ducal trooper and 2 Ducal HMG's and add the 4 Strike Commando's to the Skimmers. Then give both Hussar squads Ablative Armor for a total of 999 Pts.

I was trying to stay within the confines of Bill's models, he'd have to proxy the Strike Kommandos no matter what, so your force works, too.
