June 11, 2019 by dignity
Justin is joined by Chris from Battlefront Miniatures to talk about their new Soviet Starter Force for Flames Of War.

The Soviet starter force has the most tanks of the four starter sets, rocking in with eighteen tanks and four Kayushas!
If you want to see the starter forces in action be sure to check out our recent Flames Of War boot camp where we hosted building, painting, and playing of these new sets.
Which of the big four would you buy first?
Loving those rocket trucks, perfect heavy artillery on a budget.
Needs tank riders!
Wooosh woooosh woooosh woooosh wooooooosh *
* That’s Russian for DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA!
You are a treasure
Now I want to paint them as Orks …
*eh*
What’s keeping you? They are green anyway so might as well add some red paint and checker pattern on the vehicles 😉
I don’t want to give any of the history fans on this site a heart attack. :-p
And I’m pretty sure the flying saucers during the bootcamp were bad enough 😉
Anyone else having a sudden feeling of Deja Vu?
I bought the American Starter Force during the bootcamp and combined with On The Beach starter set we got it makes a decent 100+ point force.
What a great kit, I love all of the options available.
These look great.
The Russians look fun to play.
Loads of cheap vehicles.
Aaand here we see an expert lesson in drool suppression. Beard only necessary in an emergency.
As I said before lots and lots of infantry. How many tank riders can fit on a katusha tube?
Out of all the starter boxes I can see myself getting this along with the German one.
Would love to do an all tank force.
ooh what a tanking box.
perhaps some T26s as scouts.
T70 is the new scout….replaced the T60 which replaced the T26
T70 = late war
T60 = mid war
T26 = early war
Some BA64s then perhaps? Especially since T70s are in the box.
I would like this set even more if they replaced the T-70s with an infantry or motor platoon.
Love this box, but as others have said, would like some infantry to go alongside it.
This is the winner for me from this set of FoW releases.
good value for money just like the new starter set
That’s a great box!
The only thing i would add is tank riders! They would look sooo cool 🙂
Thanks for the vid guys!
I look forward to getting some and painting them, in non cannon colours – bright orange tiger stripes I think 🙂
