Human Defense Force
Setting: Grimdark Future
Games: Grimdark Future,
Grimdark Future: Firefight
Species: Human
Version: v2.50

Below you will find quickplay army lists for Human Defense Force from Grimdark Future.

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

GCPS Strike Force (750pts)

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

A pretty volume-of-fire reliant list. The hero is only really there to boost your Infantry Squad's morale, but in the later stages of the game their pistol is a nice bonus. Clog up points with your Infantry Squad, and have your Walker and Storm Troops hit higher-defense units where their AP is more valuable. No esoteric special rules to worry about, just a nice mass of bodies.

++ Human Defense Force [750pts] ++
Company Leader [1] Q4+ D5+ | 35pts | Hero, Tough(3)

Shred Pistol (6", A3, Rending)

CCW (A2)

Infantry Squad [20] Q5+ D5+ | 295pts |

18x Rifles (24", A1)

2x Flamethrower (12", A6)

20x CCWs (A1)

Storm Troopers [10] Q4+ D4+ | 240pts | Strider

2x Grenade Launcher (24", A1, Blast(3))

8x Heavy Rifles (24", A1, AP(1))

10x CCWs (A1)

Light Walker [1] Q4+ D2+ | 215pts | Fear, Tough(6)

Rapid Laser Machinegun (30", A6, AP(3))

Stomp (A2, AP(1))

GCPS Strike Force (1000pts)

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

A pretty volume-of-fire reliant list. Clog up points with your Infantry Squad, and have your Walker and Storm Troops hit higher-defense units where their AP is more valuable. Even AP1 in decent volume will knock wounds off Defense 2+ units. The Storm Troops can be run as either two or a combined unit. There are tradeoffs to each - Two smaller units are each easier to kill, but can cover more ground. Your hero's buff also doesn't have as much effect if you aren't targeting the combined unit, although you may well be using it on your Infantry Squad anyways as there are more bodies there to benefit.

++ Human Defense Force [1000pts] ++
Company Leader [1] Q4+ D5+ | 35pts | Hero, Take Aim, Tough(3)

Shred Pistol (6", A3, Rending)

Special Rules

Take Aim - Once per activation, before attacking, pick one friendly unit within 12” of this model, which gets +1 to hit next time it shoots.

GCPS Strike Force (1500pts)

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

You probably get it by this point :) Plays similar to the first two lists, but using all of the available models, I believe. Infantry walks onto a point and never leaves except to make some breathing room, Storm Troops kill mid-tier infantry and chip at vehicles and high-tier elite infantry, Flamethrower walker points at anything it gets close to (Really, its more than enough), Laser walker acts as your anti-tank that also deals with high tier infantry easily.
