One of the absolute favourite games down at my local club (
QLD Northern Knights) is Flames of War. Being new to FoW i’ve taken a fair amount of time deciding on which way i want to go army wise. First off I plan on building a British Rifle Company for late war using the Fortress Europe intelligence handbook. The following list is more or less a Vanilla starting point that with added extras would be roughly 1500 points and can easily have units added to round it up for larger games.
