This is a v2.50 Battle-scale list you can build using the free printable '''Battle Brothers Army Pack''' by '''OnePageRules'''. You can find the models [https://onepagerules.com/2020/04/02/2d-print-models-released/ here] and the free black and white models [https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1cZ26YZyZuWxirwhGrqd-fS0lFKtDltsj here].
This is a v3.4.1 Battle-scale list you can build using the '''Combat Patrol: Space Marines''' box from 'Games Workshop', or any other models of your choice.
 
Make no mistake that this is a shooty army - OPR's lack of shoot-and-fight in the same activations means you will need to be *charged* to be able to use both in a round. The Heroes are tough enough to sit on their own, no need to join either to the Destroyers. There is no aura buff to necessitate it anyways, and you will definitely need the activation count. You can probably justify using your Destroyers as anti-armor or anti-heavy infantry if necessary, but their rifles are definitely the more expensive component.


This is a decent, easy to use, take-all-opponents list that has tools to deal with most situations. Having at least AP(1) on all their shooting weapons makes them good at reliably killing Defense 4+ units, and the Heavy Flamethrowers make this even more reliable the closer you get. The lone Laser Cannon can knock a big chunk out of an enemy vehicle, which your other Brothers could spend a few activations chipping the last few wounds off of; AP(1) is much more capable of dealing with Defense 2+ units than it may at first seem. If you need to spend a round knocking out a big threat, it's probably worth it - at this point level, that vehicle is probably quite a big chunk of their points. Versus more numerous armies such as a Grunt-heavy Alien Hives, it may be wise to use the Laser Cannon unit as bait to draw units into the 18" threat range (Advance movement + 12" weapon range) of your Heavy Flamethrower units. Your units are going to die no matter what - make sure you're the one setting the terms. Or you could just.. use something other than a Laser Cannon mini. That.. yeah that makes way more sense.

A bit lacking in the anti-tank department, but good versus more "wide"-built armies with lots of big units for your Grenade Launchers to reap full effect from, or for your Pathfinders to chop to death. The Bikers don't have Strider, unfortunately, so your hovering jetbikes are still going to be slowed down by patches of mud, but you could pull in a Jetbike unit from a different army, if you wish.

Below you will find quickplay army lists for Battle Brothers from Grimdark Future.

Battle Brothers (1000pts)

This is a v3.4.1 Battle-scale list you can build using the Combat Patrol: Space Marines box from 'Games Workshop', or any other models of your choice.

Make no mistake that this is a shooty army - OPR's lack of shoot-and-fight in the same activations means you will need to be *charged* to be able to use both in a round. The Heroes are tough enough to sit on their own, no need to join either to the Destroyers. There is no aura buff to necessitate it anyways, and you will definitely need the activation count. You can probably justify using your Destroyers as anti-armor or anti-heavy infantry if necessary, but their rifles are definitely the more expensive component.
