As I am new to Team Yankee I was looking to put out this BG at 100 pts thoughts. pls.

My thoughts behind it is that the Inf are its strengths. the Tanks just give some hitting power. the Abbots get spotting help from the recon units.
The MLRS are used to drop mines in front of the Russian armour once seen where they are going the lynx mobile troops are kept in reserve to put on the flank of the Russians.

Definitely infantry are the strengths of the list.
I personally have a hard time going without a recce sqdn in every list. For 19pts I get 2 hq tracks, 4 scorpions, 4 scimitars, and the excellent strikers

Tell us how it works out for you! Post some pics if you can.

I have an 80pt game this Saturday (with Jon from All Miniatures Great and Small), running Brit infantry. I’ll also have a 33pt Challenger platoon chewing up a ton of points, but it fulfills my 40% reserve perfectly if needed.
Wondering how I’m going to use my Airmobile platoon,
Either deployed or loitering to relocate to good position. Table layout and mission will probably dictate that outcome.

Well, my Challenger platoon was undoubtedly the star of the show on Saturday. Granted, their first fusillade was perfect in regards to dice, but the ability to mostly ignore threats to the front was welcoming over Chieftains.

We're trying Team Yankee for the first time, a demo from a friend, in December. I'm excited to say the least.
Thanks for the follow up and post.
