Battle Brothers
Setting: Grimdark Future
Games: Grimdark Future,
Grimdark Future: Firefight
Species: Human
Version: v2.50

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

Note: as v2.50 is in constant development the following might not be accurate.

Battle Brothers (750pts)

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 here and the free black and white models here.

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.

Enforcers (750pts)

This is a v2.50 list you can make using the Enforcer Strike Force from Mantic Games, or any other models of your choice.

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.
