What is army builder. A quick google search brings up a couple of things. Is it the one by Lone Wolf? If so is there not a free version available?

Don't know about the Lone Wolf one - but, indeed a AQ on forum army builder would be a nice item. Don't forget to list the breakdown of the units; for example a MkIII platoon of 3 tanks = 225 points, so one would cost 75 points. Round up for units that give a discount for 3 - as in the case of the HMG squad of 3 costing 40 points, so one would cost 15 points and you benefit by having the third at 5 points off. Please do use my Texas unit stats as well. Curious as to whether you plan to include all the many versions of units and tanks out there?? If any are of my design, you're welcome to include them as you see fit.

Looks good so far, you need to add in the bef stuff from the GB army pdf Have a direct link to it? I was trying to find everything on this site but it's sort of scattered.... Also, I'm adding groups to the dropdowns. While things being in alpha order is nice, having them in groups in alpha order is way better!

Excellent stuff. Thanks! I agree with Madmorgan; could you break down the US and BEF units. I like to field under-strength units.

I don't have any models yet (and I've yet to play a game) so I'm a real n00b - I'm awaiting a big ass lot I bought from someone to arrive from across the pond (I'm US based)....

I think we determined the Native Cavalry to be 25 points based on the other cavalry amounts, particularly that the Native seemed to be a percentage of the USA numbers (example Native Infantry is 20 points, 10 less than a USA squad). Note the Bengal Lancers with their adhesive lancers are a 'premium' unit.

No sorry just the Bengal Lancers, Ghurka Infantry, and Sikh Infantry are all much better than your usual 'Native' Infantry. For my own situations, I add a +10 points for "Dynamite" on the Egyptian Cavalry (Native) giving a + 1 Power Assault. btw the final tally based on IG website is $164 - those template sets come in at $20 each (includes a bunch of tokens too). And they're out of stock - which means you really did well. I've have to do the breakdowns later for you as my honey is calling on me for required housework lol. Cheers !

Quick note - all 'Native' Troops are a - 1 on rolled morale checks. You probably should include that under 'Special' for the given units. Example Native Cavalry 3 elements @25 (+10 for Explosives) Speed Defense Armor Special: (add - 1 Morale) And add to the rifle line Explosives +1 Power Assaults for Dynamite. This will give the cavalry some offensive hope against most tripods/drones. Their rifles will be okay against some targets (lobos, drones maybe).
