The secret is to offer to draft a list for them.

That's how I got Finns for RoE long before any supplements came out  ::)

Action brings satisfaction  ;)

Janner, I think is a good idea. But in the moment I have no idea about this point-system. It is hard to start working on a list without any information...

Page 143 Under truck clearly shows its a generic list of trucks including captured. Opel is mentioned alongside the Protze as an example.

Happy reading,

Helen

Thanks Helen, I've looked at that page so many times & never noticed the Truck entry tucked in there.  ::)

This option is out of discussion. A basic list should be there before August 2013.

You are talking to the wrong forum. Go over to Warlords forum and ask nicely there.

Cheers,

Helen

As an aside NurgleHH, if you put together platoon orbats for them then you may find they do the points side for you

Just use the DH Japanese list. I'm still using DH as a guide for Brit Paras and Russian platoons rather than use the generic BA lists

All the points are standard from memory for Inexperienced, Regulars and Veteran throughout the four armies.

Give them an Army specific rule that you "lift" from a rule set of your choice ...  :D

Exactly my advice. Take a Japanese lists of your liking (DPH, my Victory Decision book, whatever....)
Use a stand-in unit that fits the most. Play!

IMO it really is that simple, since BA is VERY generic.
And EVERY basic infantry squad in BA has 5 man PLUS the option to increase the size to the historical correct size (including the points...).
A Rifle is a rifle and a MMG is a MMG. Only rarely some weapons have specific rules (like Mg-42).
