Team Yankee -Warsaw Pact T-72 Tank Battalion Starter Force - Unbox and first look

[@e-4airman124]

this will be my first purchase for the Warsaw Pact group thanks to your review

[@AytchZero]

Excellent vids on the two Warsaw Pact starters, was trying to decide which to pick up and it helped a lot. Thank you!

[@OneofInfinity.]

Nice review, I haven't encountered those who look under your model, I do know the ones that critically check the back of 28mm shields.

I’ve been waiting for a mass t-72 box 📦 for years… thanks battlefront !!!

[@Andrew-se4tg]

Looks great! Thanks for the video!

[@gregwaugh616]

Build done. The paint hits the models this weekend! Great box set. Jon I pre-ordered and ran into delays too.

[@AllMiniaturesGreatandSmall]

Are you in the US? I had the hardest time finding them but finally scored them at Miniature Market

[@gregwaugh616]

@@AllMiniaturesGreatandSmall No, I'm in Canada. I called 3 weeks after the scheduled release date and they told they were waiting on stock. Supply chain issues I guess.

[@Edward-Plantagenet]

Great vid, nice box. Hope you manage to get a game in with these vs Mark's Brits. Jake seems not so keen on the TY vibe?

[@AllMiniaturesGreatandSmall]

It's on the schedule. Mark and I should be playing soon!

[@davidschneider5462]

Thanks for the video. I have some T-80s and T-64s from earlier starter boxes and boxed set as well as some T-72 without ERA. I'm trying to decide if I want this box or two or just get the new T-72 boxes to build T-72Bs. I don't know if I want the T-55AMs or maybe make them as an earlier version T-55 for Arab-Israeli wars. I'm also interested in your SU-22 Fitter review before I decide. It sounded like the T-72B and Fitter also comes with Soviet cards. Is that correct? If you plan to use these models as Soviet do you need the Warsaw Pact book?

[@someguyinatshirt2624]

When can we expect to see a battle report with the T-72Bs?

[@AllMiniaturesGreatandSmall]

Hopefully soon, Mark and are a scheming. I think it will be Brits versus Polish.

[@michaelwain3198]

We've played a couple of games now, using the T-72B's and T-55AM's from this set against West Germans. That T-72B isn't a bad assault tank. I think I want a 2nd box of this now, so I can do a 3 platoon Soviet force

[@AllMiniaturesGreatandSmall]

What Nation were you running?

[@michaelwain3198]

@@AllMiniaturesGreatandSmall Soviets, so we could only do 2 platoons of T-72B's plus the HQ. I filled out the rest of the formation with BMP-2 Mech infantry, Tunguskas, and Carnations. Support was T-72A's, T-55AM's, Storms and a BMP-1 OP. I'm busily painting up some Gaskins, Gophers, Shilkas, Spandrels and Dana's so we can try Warsaw Pact instead

[@senint]

@@michaelwain3198Sounds like an interesting opposing force to play against, now after the release of ”Nordic Forces” supplement. 😀

[@michaelwain3198]

since my post, I've bought a total of 3 T-72B starter army deals, including one last week. Last's week's was to get some T-72's for the Finns and some extra Hinds. For Warsaw Pact, the plan is 13 T-72B's (1 HQ and 3 platoons of 4 tanks). I've also got some T-64BV's to try out with my Soviets @@senint

[@Subcomandante73]

T-72B is a nice easy to build kit. The Academy plane not so nice, but as expected.

[@memorarenz]

Old T55 all the way

[@AwesomeMoss]

I've built several vintage model kits, enough to know that that SU-17 looks like a vintage tool. Like one form the 80s. Kinda a poor choice on Battlefront's part.

[@AllMiniaturesGreatandSmall]

I mean it's not the best but it's not horrible. I've actually found the plastic SU-25 model to be worse then this one. I'm sure it will paint up nice.

[@thearmoredgeorgian2736]

I heard the SU-25 was from 1992

[@simonvolye613]

Missing sum tractors to pull them away 😆
