My Canadian infantry have been a real labour of love, and at times, hate, but now they are done and I have managed a couple of games with them, I'm really enjoying the end result. These guys were a real slog at times but I have done exactly what I wanted to do with this army, additions will now be small and quick to do, so I should be able to play whatever I want.
I've built/painted the equivalent of 4, 10 man squads, each with an nco with smg, at least one more smg, a lmg and loader, and the left overs with rifles. Then to make sure I have something for every job, I have; a piat team, light and medium mortars, mmg, sniper and 5 man engineer squad who I see as a cheeky little extra unit in games where I need them. Then lastly I have my HQ units, my lt and adjacent, a forward artillery officer and adjacent, a captain for bigger games and an adjacent for my medic*.
* This was my infantry done until an order arrived from North Star and ruined it all . . . But the order includes a guy who looks like a better medic than the one Warlord supplies.
HQ units
Piat, sniper and light mortar.
Medium mortar, mmg and flamer.
The engineers, 4 rifles and nco with smg for good measure.
The NCOs.
The brave, unwashed masses.
Thanks for reading.
Oh well done Mike, what a great achievement - a fine looking body of men.
ReplyDeleteThat's an impressive collection of infantry Mike, but where's the tanks... ;)
