So I am actually doing this force, it comes as a bundle from Warlord. My question is, can I add a Sandbag Armoured Sherman M4A3 to the list (I believe I can because it is in the USMC section on Warlord), and how many points would it be? An M8 Scott is 140, I'd imagine this would bump my list to 1650-1700ish? I might also add another LVT-4 (Buffalo) Amtrac.

ARMY LIST: USMC ISLAND ASSAULT FORCE 1617PT
Two special Battalions, designated by order of the president as USMC Raiders, were formed in 1942 – hand picked, well trained, and highly motivated – they were well prepared when they first entered the fray on Makin Island at the start of the Solomons campaign and developed tactics and systems that were to shape the US marines as we see them today.

Is this more of a theme-y list?
