Tuesday Review Honey and Wildfire

So today's review is the Honey and Wildfire for the Allies from the new expansion Operation Seelowe.

Honey

Pros:
Cheap walker
Has a phaser weapon
Can stand its own against Vehicles and infantry
Phaser ignores cover

Cons:
Armor 3 and 3 Wounds
Phaser Weapon is random with the X and Y rolling. You could get 0 shots or 6 shots for infantry or 0-9 for walkers
No Jump like its heavier counterparts
Personally I think it's slow for a lighter walker

Tactics:
I recommend to use this on heavy cover tables. That way you can ignore a lot of terrain.

Wildfire

Pros:
Cheapest current Allie Walker
Has Superior Reactive Fire
Very useful anti infantry weapons

Cons:
Armor 3 and 3 Wounds
Has no anti tank weapons.
No Jump like its heavier counterparts
Personally I think it's slow for a lighter walker

Tactics:
Use again an infantry heavy army. Avoid the heavyier walkers and stick to getting near the infantry.

Next week will be a review on the Heinrich and the Hermann.
