Team Yankee: Trying the T-80
With the release of the new starter set for WW3 Team Yankee, the Soviets now have access to the T-80 tank and the BMP-3 IFV.
These provide some new options for building Soviet forces in the game, so we wanted to try them out. Bart came down for a couple
of trial games, and we tried a combination of NATO British, Dutch and US forces against his T-80 battalion and a T-64 battalion
for comparison.
The verdict was very positive, while the T-64 is good and you can pack more of them into 120 points, the T-80 and BMP-3 are excellent
vehicles and provide a very different tactical challenge to the opposing NATO forces. It was great fun trying them out, and I
suspect we will see lots of them once the new Soviet book is released.
