Flames of War update!

So here is the current state of my Flames of War army. I've played a few games (proxying some models like Russian infantry for the Rifle platoon and what not), the army will be finished around late December as I'm getting some 8 25" Pdrs and an infantry platoon from Santa *cough* *cough*... my parents, which will round out the entire army from 1750pts to 2000pts.

Note: Exclude the SP 25" Pdr Sextons, I won't actually be using these models, to expensive points wise for what they do, I just really like the models.

My Current lists;

1750pts

2 Sherman V's, 2 .50 cals
3 Sherman V's, 1 Firefly, 2 .50 cals
3 Sherman V's, 1 Firefly, 2 .50 cals
3 Sherman V's, 1 Firefly, 2 .50 cals
3 Stuarts
4 M10 Achilles (17" Pdr Variant)
4 25" Pdrs
Full Strength Infantry Platoon

2000pts


2 Sherman V's, 2 .50 cals
3 Sherman V's, 1 Firefly, 4 .50 cals
3 Sherman V's, 1 Firefly, 4 .50 cals
3 Sherman V's, 1 Firefly, 4 .50 cals
3 Stuart V's
2 Staghound I's, 1 Dingo, 1 .50 Cal
4 M10 Achilles (17" Pdr Variant)
8 25" Pdrs
Full Strength Infantry Platoon

I've tried other lists like the Guards Armoured Div from Hells Highway and the British Armoured lists from Fortress Europe but the costs for Vets are waaaaaay over priced and they just don't work in my opinion. Where as trained get a lot more for what they are worth... ergo, "Trained" but its not just that, the points that they are worth are actually about correct where as Vet Brit tanks shouldn't be what they are, which are 370-385pts where trained they are only worth 275-290pts.
