WW2 German reserve for Bolt Action.

Hi! 

This is the bargain buy from eBay.

Tanks, armoured car, transports, anti-aircraft and a nebelwerfer. All for £3 (under $4) including postage.

Perhaps I'll rethink my flocking!

The Bolt Action WW2 British & Germans

I've been slowly painting the Heroic & Ros WW2 British and Germans and have based all except the German platoon HQ's and a walking panzerschreck team. Solely because I ran out of 20mm bases.

The painting is fairly basic and the flocking may hide them too well. But I will know what's what (I will write it under the base, just in case).

The British

5 Infantry sections

1 platoon HQ

1 Lieutenant

1signaller

1 Sergeant

1 Orderly

3 PIAT teams, 2 prone, 1 advancing

3 2" mortar teams, prone

3 Grant tanks

1 Sherman Firefly

The Germans

5 Panzer IVF1'S

5 Rifle squads

1 120mm mortar team

2 Panzerschreck teams

3 MG teams, prone

I decided to go with the tank formations I found online despite the advantage it may give the Germans at some point.

But, already I am thinking of adding 4 Infantry sections/squads to each army to bring them to company level. That is partly because the supports, piats, mortars etc. are company level in quantity.

I might add some transport also.

In reserve, are the Germans I bought on eBay. Quite a considerable force which I will show on my next posting. The were already paintedwhen I bought them . I may use these as is, but I'm more likely to repaint and base them.

Thanks for dropping by.

Another 'Last' project!

Hi!

I'm afraid life got in tha way a little.

I've packed away all my ancient figures for while I'm in the States. It then took a while to sort out the things I'd brought. Now that is done, I'm ready to pick up where I left off.

BUT! I've also started a small project, no pun intended, of 6mm Bolt action.

Two small forces of British & Germans.

I intend to base the infantry by section, so no casualty removal. I may use tokens or keep a written record instead.
