      Cracking little game, not so much an historical game, more of a game with historical models and equipment which is fun to play.

    I hate the Warlord anti-tank guns like the Pak-40, that don't have instructions on how to put the fiddly bits together. Drives me crazy.

    I'd like a video on assembling the metal AT teams and MMG teams. I have 6 german MMG teams I've tried to put together for some reason, and not any 2 of them fit together the same way

    I was adding a few Panzerfaust to my units and ran out, I ended up using a waffen ss arms to add one. Cleaned them down to look less bulky but they fit pretty well onto the torso :)

      Tip by a German: the plural of Panzerfaust is Panzerfäuste, Panzerfaust = Tank fist, Panzerfäuste = Tank fists😉

    Great unboxing as always, gents! LOL, I'm like Johnny B with untouched kits in my stash. 😅
    Also, I can totally understand the frustration with models that are supposed to be the same but can be really different.

    And you didn’t immediately contact Amazon and tell them they made a mistake? Shocked! Shocked I am! 😂 sometimes other people roll 1s and you reap the benefits. I just picked up the British Airborne box. 100% agree on the weapon/arm molds being way more conducive to quicker assembly and less gluey fingers. This looks like a great starter for anyone wanting to get into doing late Germans.

    That is a good value set (specially for £35!) - big fan of the Warlord Grenadiers as there's a lot of room for customising them in terms of weapons and positions to put them in. Not a big fan of the metal anti tank guns though - suffered through a few of them over the last few months building up my German and US armies!

    I started BA about 6 weeks ago with winter Germans and the models are excellent. A bit limited with how you can assemble the arms but I also got a Soviet starter army and I want to jump off the roof!. Assembling the arms with the weapons are verrrrry tedious. So assembling and quickly painting a Soviet army in my spare time ain’t happening!

      my FLGS has a Soviet starter army in the used section of the store for $87. I wouldn't have even considered it but I opened the box and everything was already assembled, but unpainted. That's a whole lot of assembly I don't have to do. I'm not too keen at the moment on starting an entirely new army or else I would have picked it up. Not going to lie though....I'm still thinking about it haha.
