AAR - Late War - Welsh Guards vs 512 Schwerepanzerjager - Breakthrough

Hi All welcome to another AAR.  This time instead of one of out usual 'we're preparing for a tournament' AAR's I've tried to craft two lists which should be very different but hopefully balanced in opposition. So before onto the AAR proper I thought I'd take you through the lists.  Welsh guards-  So why the welsh guards? Well it's been a while since the Cromwells made the tabletop - and they're fast - they're really fast. Oh and expensive! So how do you make a list for these guys ? Well let's start with the compulsory choices obviously - that's 10 veteran tanks - none of which can even scratch the front armour of the opposition. So what's the way (other than outflanking to kill big cats? Templates - well I decided to try the typhoon here - let's get the allied air superiority on the table. I like to also have a couple of other units for a rounded allied list - recon and arty - due to points. ( and also aesthetics) I've gone for 4 Stuart's as Recce, and some heavy mortars - this should mean that infantry is relatively vulnerable - whilst also providing some smoke as needed. The list is fast but made of glass! More of a scalpel than a sledge hammer I hope!  Schwerepanzerjager-  Firstly I want big cats! That's going to be all 4 Jagdtigers (I'm opting not to take Carius deliberately but he would be an excellent choice !) now to give some opposition to fast tanks zooming up the side lets take some Volksturm - no infantry to oppose them sadly but they should be good speed bumps! As there is air, a couple of Ostwinds would be nice, but only trained - finally some King Tigers would help make this feel like a real 'big cat' list - and with some spare points as always add Nebs. This list is I think a proper big cat list - but in a mobile battle with the Volksturm and Nebs deployed only one big cat (or Ostwinds) will start on the table....

Schwerepanzerjägerkompanie List Review

Schwere Panzerjägerkompanie

Hey everyone another article for you to chew over.

So after part 1 the discussion of the list, I thought I'd do a review of having played these guys.

So far they've played against a British Rifle Company, FJ Infantry, Soviet Fortified List, 11th Armoured, U.S 7th Armoured, StuG Battery, Panzer Lehr and British armour (usually 1750 points, but one 1250 and one 2K)

AAR - Schwerepanzerjager vs Irish Guards - No Retreat

So I've a slightly different game for you all today.

I'd agreed a game with a local player down the club for an attempt to recreate XXX core racing up Hell's highway.

For this Kev choose an Irish guard list, I decided to give my Jagdpanthers their last game (for the time being) we worked decided before hand on 'hold the line' with my forces defending.

AAR - Schwerepanzerjager vs 11th Armoured - Fighting Withdrawal

With my on going attempts to understand the Schwerepanzerjager I arranged a game against Ben. I always enjoy playing Ben as they're always close games, and I think my sweetest ever wargaming victory at a tournament was against him (and I feel he's still bitter about it!). At first we rolled up Free For All, but as Ben has played 3 Free for Alls in his last 4 games and I had played it a fair bit to we re rolled and got Fighting Withdrawl. To keep the winter theme for my army and the board Ben was using some US units so it would look a little better. The other nice thing is to actually use these guys against a tank army - not managed that so far!

11th Armoured 2 HQ Cromwells 3 Cromwells + Challenger 3 Cromwells + Challenger 3 Cromwells + Challenger Full US Paras 3 Univeral Carriers (The US Jeeps) 4 Heavy Mortars (The US Light Artillery

AAR Schwerepanzerjager vs Pulyemyetno-Artillyeriyskiy - Counter Attack

Welcome gentlemen.

I played a 1750 game against my arch nemesis Dr Alex, with my Schwerepanzerjager company against his Pulyemyetno-Artillyeriyskiy.

Now once again my anti tank army is against no tanks and I'm playing my much disliked Fortified Company.

List Discussion - Schwerepanzerjager - for when you need to absolutely kill the enemies tank!

Good morning everyone!

 these we're a present from the ever loveable Ben at Christmas to me.

Tetrach vs Jagdpanther who do you think would win?

At the time I was a little stuck on how to use them, as they seemed 'too much gun' for my local environment, and the only list I could find for them as core had them as unreliable, but Bridge by Bridge sorted that out with the Schwerepanzerjager company.
