Number of AFV in a Romanian platoon?

[Tim Haslam]

Sorry, just been a while since I played BA.

I’m using a late war Romanian theatre selector,
Can I take,
A Romanian tank,
A German Tank as an Axis vehicle in Romanian service,
AND a German tank as Axis Support.
Thus 3 tanks in one army?

Thanks

The selector will say how many tanks you can have in total per platoon irrespective of the source.

What you have listed is the 3 sources /types of tanks that you can taken NOT the amount you can take.

Also dont forget to check out the 2019 FAQ/Errata found here;

It’s a little confusing,
In that on the one hand I can take German tanks but not veteran but the theatre selector contradicts this by allowing a veteran tank?
Which makes me think I’m allowed one each from the above list?
A Rumanian tank, possibly a Tacam for example,
Then a German vehicle but in German service, a P38t for example(this could be vet)
Plus an allied actual German vehicle, anything as long as it’s not vet or better than 10+ armour?

This of course is quite hypothetical as fitting 3 tanks into a 1000pt list is a tight squeeze! Lol!

Ok reading the ‘Onward to the Caucasus!’ Romanian Theater list on pg 94, plus the FAQ = confusion….

You can have 0-1 Tank from the list of Romanian tanks. which includes some German tanks in Romanian service, you then have a special rule which allows more tanks BUT the FAQ which cut the special rule down to the equal of that in the Tanks & Tank Destroyer list for the Hungarians hasn’t touched the Romanians…

So I would play it like this

You can have 0-1 tanks from the Tanks & Tank destroyer list including those in the Axis Vehicles .. rule

Then have the option to add a 2nd tank as per the Nation Special rules – Axis support.

Ok, thanks Nat.
Seems to make sense.
Plus it’s more achievable in 1000pts!

Thanks
