Bolt Action Japanese 1000pts army
Facebook support
I had some rules questions about my knee mortars teams and the community rallied around to support. The rules for choosing targets wasn’t under shooting, team weapons or mortars, it was under indirect fire rules and was very clear once it was pointed out to me.
The chat was fun and informative.
I am happy to continue my list as planned.
I will probably drive this 18 miniature unit towards the objective or the center of the battle-line generally. The light mortars don’t have a lot of range so I need to get within rifle long range before it starts to get useful. I will have the rifles fire at one target and my mortars shooting at as many other local targets as I can to share out the potential for pins. Or I may just drop all three dice on one target that poses most threat to me at the time.
If I still have enough men late game I can chance a dice or two on smoke and try to banzai attack in true Japanese style.
If a light mortar or two get sniped I might even forget the mortars and let fly with 15 or 16 rifle shots. Even on 6’s that’s still a ton of dice. The biggest worry for a big unit is HE shells killing lots of tightly packed guys, but I will try to plan and mitigate this as best I can.
