@Steffen Seitter yes, and they'll also be useful for building a Visigoth army
Project Goblin, Troll, Persian Lady army getting closer. That "Araves" set would actually make a sweet warband for a Mordheim Araby campaign.

Looks like the're are offering other non-WGA resin? metal? miniatures. Kinda reminds me of Anvil Industries, to include the giant hands. I just hope if that Lieutenant survives the war he...
Nice! Look forward to this!
I would definitely say Belgium. I went with a friend a couple of years ago to Waterloo & Ligny and we did a lot of walking around Belgium fields. They are very flat & open compared to...
Italian Cavalry did significant work in WW2. A plastic set of them would really compliment WGA's Italian Infantry. Italian Savoia Cavalry: Battle of Poloj - Italian Cavalry Char...
@Christopher Tyrer Boom! Out of curiosity, do you know which theater/where that is?
@JTam some fascinating pictures there.
@JTam Evidence! Here's a photo of a British crew of a 6 inch 26cwt howitzer all shirtless. No doubt thinking that they were all having a jolly on Scarborough beach... Very unseemly!!
Some great colorized photos of WW1 Russian troops. https://flashbak.com/captivating-colorized-portraits-of-russian-fighters-in-world-war-1-411895/

Looks like Russian troops in WW1 wore collarless undershirts as well:
I wonder if this is this: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/50203/ww1-rules-and-miniatures-box-set Hopefully this is something else as I'm a huge fan of games in a box. ...
Conventional Wisdom would tell us the Hungarians, Poles, and Cossacks are the greatest horseman of Europe. Any other contenders? Any other thoughts?

Semi inspired by this thread: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/53782/who-wants-ww2-axis-cavalry Amazingly (to me at least) there is zero plastic 28mm WW2 cavalry available. ...
Officers and Soldiers of the French Army 1940 by André Jouineau. This book is pretty much 62 pages of plates covering: I have mixed thoughts on this one. Some plates are very useful.&...
@BS Kitbasher Good stuff! Thank You. Reference: Maybe there just isn't much one can write about such truly ancient tactics that isn't pure conjecture? There just...
@JTam Yeah reading up on the vast amount of friendly fire and just weird stuff around the area the Lehr was operating is wild. A big thing to consider also is the unit had been on stand by for hou...
@Cole Lassell Stug CREWMEN in an assault gun unit would wear the gray assault gun jackets. However, your right, this is a FKL unit using Stugs as a mother vehicle... so anything is pos...
@JTam "Stug crewman would have worn the gray assault gun uniforms." See I agree that is the most likely answer but as with other weirdness of the german army Im not sure 100% so my primar...
I'm going to copy my review from the other thread. ThenI'll work on other reviews. I recommend Ancient Armies of the Near East as well as Aztecs, Zapotec and Mixtecs for WGA customers lookin...
@Cole Lassell The FKL with specially modified armored vehicles only using the remote control devices makes sense. I do have a reference or two referencing Goliaths in conjuncti...
@Benjamin Hayward Nice. Or add the drum magazine and it looks a lot like an AA-12. https://youtu.be/WOoUVeyaY_8 (Love this guy's videos) Accept no s...
@Forrest Wentworth The kit I think is great. The coverall torsos are so versatile. I have a lot of ideas for them but it is the weapons in that kit that do not appeal to me. Your conversion he...
Really impressed with these figures Marines and VC, the detail is great I`ve put no equipment on them as yet, and each comes with a real choice of packs, weapons, water bottles, Holsters, emptyand ...
PICTURES Never done this before, so here goes. here are my "Nam" Rubicons, 2 Marines, 2 VC, a Mk5 Centurion, VW, Tractor, and a Market produce set. The VW and Tractor can be Taxis if you want...
@JTam so I'm on my phone atm but I can grab you the definitive source on my laptop tomorrow. Basically I too thought the 316 was a Goliath unit unit I read into it more. The fkl units refer only t...
@Cole Lassell Great stuff. Really like the details on the Tiger modifications to act as a control vehicle. Question. Did the 316 operate Borgwards or Goliaths? I tho...
So Im still digging but this is one very interresting part of the panzer Lehr Ide like to share and that is the "Panzer Kompanie 316FKL". FKL=Funklenk which is in reference to the radio controlled ...
I'll start with a review of Osprey's "French French Soldier Versus German Soldier, Verdun 1916" by David Campbell. I want to highlight this book as it seems particularly relevant to WGA fans, co...
Not all references are created equal. Help your peers. Throw your book reviews here! (Or post a link.)
@BS Kitbasher I think your idea for a book review thread is a great one. Also, you are 100% correct the Osprey compilations are great values and a list of them would be very us...

@BS Kitbasher Thanks. Maybe I need to move the Eisenkern up my priority list.
I had a similar idea: cut the barrel (and maybe the magazine) and *poof!* the rifle becomes a shotgun!
Those look like Eisenkern shoulder pads.
For reviews, I recommend Ancient Armies of the Near East as well as Aztecs, Zapotec and Mixtecs for WGA customers looking to get excited about upcoming products; both are informative, give hints of...
