Thanks for the link, really looking forward to this, probably my favourite 70's and 80's army! |

Good review. I like all the photos of Brit kit in action that are appearing from people's personal collections. Gives it some great context. I also wonder why they went for a Chieftain instead of Chally1 on release? Chally1's were in the field in 85. Maybe an upgrade later? |

1980 is the year TY is aiming for. It's hard to believe, but the Leo 2 entered service as early as '79. |

"I also wonder why they went for a Chieftain instead of Chally1 on release? Chally1's were in the field in 85" Possibly they chose 3 (UK) Armd Div because of the "Airmobile" piece, helicopters!!! (Pumas, Chinooks and Bundeswher), however 6 Airmobile Bde were a BAOR Reserve who would deploy throughout the AOR as required, not as a formed 6 Bde formation so would also be found in 1 & 4 Divs AORs. 17/21 were converting to C1 in 85 the RH (7 UK Armd Bde/1 UK Armd Div, had C1 in 85. Tally Ho! |

Chieftains were far more numerous. |

Yes only 2 Regiments of Chally 1 in 1985. TY is set in 1985 btw, not 1980. As a Soviet player I wish it were! (Then again it probably would have gone nuclear within 24 hours!) |

Challengers would be very pricey to boot points wise. |

Challengers would be very pricey to boot points wise. Same turret and gun as the Chieftan just better armour. No Thermal Imaging until TOGS arrive |
