Hi All,

I am pulling what little hair I have left out trying to figure out the following:

P70 in v2 BA rulebook talks about 75mm field guns being classified as a Medium AT gun (+5 pen) + Light Howitzer depending on the ammo loaded

How many points would the above be costed at in a regular british reinforced platoon ?

I can see the 25 pdr listed under light artillery - however it is designated as Light AT (+4 pen) + Light Howitzer, in addition it has a gun shield unlike 75mm

Looking on warlord store I can see British/US/Polish versions of the 75mm also, but I cannot find it in EasyArmy anywhere for any army

Stats must exist somewhere - I just can't find them !!!

Being a Noob I only have "Armies of GB" supplement currently

Any help greatly appreciated

In the US list, it's under Light Artillery.

Thanks for the response, however still not sure what you mean...

Using EasyArmy as my reference, I've attached a couple of screenshots:
Options - Overview of artillery options for US platoon
Light - Stats of the light artillery option; M1A1
25pdr - British Arty example of HE + AT capabilities

The M1A1 is a light howitzer with a gun shield, so not a match for the 75mm

Could you explain further or send my a screenshot please ?

Much appreciated

I will answer this when I get back home to my rulebook this evening. I have played lots of bolt action but never actually used an AT gun... my WAG is a medium w/o gs is 70 points. Will update in a few hours!

edit: according to the main rule book you've got a 6 pounder that's 75 points for a regular medium AT. It comes with a gunshield. No options. So I'm going to declare victory on this one.
