Faust Vs Schreck

[@andraslibal]

We would love to see your Bolt Action models it would be so much better than a static image. Just a pan or rotating table with your panzerfaust or panzershrek little figures.

The king has returned. This is by far the best BA channel out there. I was worried we'd lost you to Star Wars for good.

[@HollywoodWargaming]

I'm unworthy of such praise after being absent for so long. My BA videos get more views than my Legion videos, so I knew I had to get back to you guys.

[@danield4425]

Great! Your videos actually brought me into the hobby! I'm now building British 8th army and USMC. :)

[@HollywoodWargaming]

Awesome to hear! Brit 8th has some fantastic variety and models to it.

I started getting into bolt action at the beginning of this year and only had one chance to play before lockdown. Since then, I’ve been collecting, building and creating army lists. I can absolutely see the relative value of the fausts being able to hide in a unit and have more utility. I am currently thinking of running a vet squad with a few fausts in a transport to be able to drive to where I need them. I haven’t tried it, but that’s what I was thinking. As always, love your videos as a new BA player. Always want more!

[@Shadowplay-jo1oz]

As a new player (got into BA in lockdown so yet to play a game) these videos are very informative and helpful. Thanks for putting them on YT.

[@oakleystactics579]

The Panzer Zest Truppen are good because you can field 2 Schreks in the one unit.

Schreck is love schreck is life.

I spent three days looking for this video..,,

The name isn’t helpful

A little bit of both might not be a bad idea. You have an AT slot in a standard platoon, might as well use it. The Schreck is basically a reusable Faust with better range. Give a Faust to any squad that can take one in case the Schreck can't fire on a tank or misses it. I'm sure American armies with Bazookas don't lament the lack of a disposable option.

Love your bolt action videos. Do you think you would ever do battle reports? I think you could offer a unique insight into your plays and strategy. I am a soviet player and I love late war lists, so I end up taking the zis-3 and a spread of Schrecks in a mix of guard and vet squads with smgs in tracked trucks. So many times I get an early kill on the points heavy enemy tank by overwhelming it with faust shots.

[@cameronwixcey9692]

Panzerfaust seems a no brainer. 5pts for the potential of killing a tank, otherwise infantry are almost powerless to stop tanks.

[@andraslibal]

I have a ton of panzerfaust in my late war Waffen SS Army never fired one yet ... feels like a lot of points spent for nothing. The last game was the first I saw an Allied Hellcat. My Tiger took it out in one shot that was it. It sure seems like I do not need that much AT capability in my game. Maybe when my opponent starts bringing Shermans and M8s and M3 transports ... I will see the point. I do have a Panzershreck team as well. I also have a GrB-39 granade launcher and a Sturmpistole and a Hanomag with Panzerbüchse 41 with the Sturmpioneers/Heer Pioneers those are also AT capabilities built into the infantry squad ... never tried them but they might provide a lighter cheaper option against tanks and armoured targets.

[@HollywoodWargaming]

Well, if you have a Tiger in your list you may not need a whole lot of Fausts. It's certainly a balancing act. But at just 5 points per model and 4 shots when you decide to strike, I've seen them do some VERY nasty things.

[@andraslibal]

@@HollywoodWargaming you are right I would rather bring a Flakvierling I love how it chops up infantry and then protect it with my own infantry that has pz.fausts ... but this game I had to bring the Tiger my friend was painting and weathering that Hellcat for a week it looks amazing he was planning to take out my Tiger with it ... too bad it went for the Hanomag :))) lived only that turn the next shot was the Tiger and no Recce could save him the Tiger shoots to 84" ...

[@rich_john]

Having a panzerfaust(s) in an infantry unit can definitely scare of armoured car etc which might threaten them. So don't always need to be fired to do their job.

[@kanrakucheese]

You missed the REAL best part of the panzerfaust: What else are you going to do with those last ~15 points on your list?

[@jacqueslandry2319]
