From JaccoK - 20mm late war Germans (96 pts)

I took a while to get the first entry ready but here it is.  These are 24 late war Germans form AB figures all in 20mm. These are an addition to my existing German army.


















Last year our group started with the Battlegroup Kursk ruleset in 20mm. Our annual Christmas battle this was also with these rules (the Overlord add-on). I've added some pictures of the battle to get a feel. The table and scenario where made by Michael Fisser who did an excellent job as games master and as host.


















Welcome aboard Jake! It's great to have one of the Dutch Waterbicycle Detachment in the mix this year. 

AB makes beautiful figures and you've really done them proud Jake. Your paintwork is excellent and I like that you've added little details like aerials to the radio sets. A great touch. 

That Christmas game looks just brilliant. Bravo to Michael! I had the pleasure to game with Jake, Rob and Michael a couple years ago while we were visiting Holland and it was a wonderful experience. Their games are stunning, great fun and you couldn't hope to hang out with a better bunch of guys.
I look forward to your next entry Jake!

  9. 20mm wargaming is (I suspect) were most of us started. It is still my favourite scale for wargames. These are fantastic! The table is superb and I want to see more painted models, and that is a sign of success. Excellent way to start the challenge.
