Expanding the USMC

With Mother of All Battles (MOAB) 2016, I decided to expand on my 750 point USMC force that you can view here,  The force has had a few minor changes.  I decided to drop the Air Observer as they are cheesey and too powerful in Bolt Action V1.  MOAB will be the last event on the Australian Scene to use Bolt Action V2.  The event is 1250 points and must be themed.  I have run with the 1st Marine Division at Okinawa.  This can also be used for Pelileu you just can't take the M29 Weasel as they debuted at Iwo Jima.

I have added, an additional engineer, Bazooka Team, M3A1 37mm Light AT gin, M29 Weasel, M4A3 Sherman and a LVT4.

Enjoy!
