Flames of War Platoon of plastic 15mm Germans and two Pak 40's - 86 Points
This is my second platoon of three that I have set myself to do this challenge and being plastic are really nice to paint. I am still learning how to paint 15mm and figure it will take me a few armies to get to know most of the tricks. This force will be used for post D-Day themes games.
Team Yankee - M1A1's, ITV's and VADS - 45 Points.
I am really enjoying playing Team Yankee at the moment and I think it is a mixture of simplified game play as well as the subject matter. I grew up in the age of the cold war and Tom Clancy books and playing these scenarios is just such a blast for me. All these miniatures are from Battlefront and are just top notch kits.
The ITV is an Improvised TOW Vehicles and is a real tank killer. It can't fire on the move and is a classic glass canon but has great hitting power and sensational range.
The M1A1 Abrams is such an iconic vehicle and these boost my force to a total of 12.
Alan and Paul: Cracking stuff Patch! Love the Germans, and the way you have even done the Waffenfarbe on their shoulder straps, but the US are my favourite. Great camo painting. I count 37 infantry figures, two guns and 9 vehicles, for a total of 136 points, plus another one for the tank commanders. Great work!
Very very nice!!
ReplyDeleteLovely work Anthony :)_
ReplyDeleteVery nice work indeed, looks to me like you've already got the hang of painting 15mm
ReplyDeleteLove the modern US .. nailed that..
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff!
ReplyDeleteSuch a strong entry. I don't think you have much left to learn about painting 15mm, your Jerries are fab.
ReplyDeleteI wish that WW3 15mm kit was around when I was in my microarmour days, it looks terrific and the US cammo is spot on.
Great work - and I love the Team Yankee stuff. We have been having a lot of fun with Team Yankee here with our group, hope you enjoy as well!
ReplyDeleteThanks Greg and yes we are having a ball, still to learn all the subtle rules so sticking to the basics and introducing something new each game.
DeleteGreat work Anthony. I prefer the WWII over the modern, but it's all lovely stuff.
ReplyDeleteThanks Curt, I have been exclusively WW2 for around four years and whilst it is still my preferred genre it is nice doing something different for awhile.
DeleteThe cold war stuff is so sharp, excellent but the 15mm WWII shows you have come to grips with 15mm perfectly well

Very nice. The camo on the Cold War vehicles is really well done.
ReplyDeleteAwesome. The team Yankee stuff looks really amazing but so does the FoW stuff. Looking forward to FoW version 4. cheers
ReplyDeleteThe Pak 40's are very very nice. The team yankee stuff is also just my cup of tea
ReplyDeleteWhile the WW2 figures are very good, the camo on those TY vehicles is truly stunning!
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Especially that MERDC camo is superb.
ReplyDeleteNo loss of quality in pursuit of quantity, well done!
ReplyDeleteI can only imagine what your 15mm will look like once you've figured it out! The Germans look incredible and your 80's American Armor is spot on....I have the camo to prove it! ;)
