Phil, so are you still playing Flames of War? We're trying to get together an informal challenge (well, there might be prizes)! on over at my humble blog, largely inspired by that Mid-Winter challenge you hosted here a couple of years ago? Just wondering if we could lure you in as well  |

dunno, I don't get much time to paint for myself nowadays. I have got some models on the way though, if they arrive in time I might have a go

Just a thought Phil, because your Midwinter Challenge really helped me knock my NZers out back a few years ago.
What are you ordering? Late war pieces? I'm still trying to paint my Mid war armies!

Well the stuff I'm waiting for still hasn't turned up, but I might do something else, like my alternate WWII mentioned on another thread.

I see tanks and armored cars even. What manufacturers are those from? 15mm scale? British? I think I see a Crusader at the bottom...

That is;
3 crusader CS
6 crusader II
6 crusader III
3 Shermans
6 jeeps
4 humber scouts
2 sdkfz 223 radio
2 8 rads
4 sdkfz 222
Mostly Command Decision, a few QRF and others. The CD ones are great, packs of three for a little more than one battlefront. Nice all metal minis, I will be using a lot more of them, but the figures are a little slim compared to battlefront ones (or realistic, maybe?)

Well, heres' what I'll be trying to get done;  It's a long shot but I'll give it a go. That's a HQ of 4x crusader CS, 1 Platoon each of Crusader II, crusader III and shermans. I've got some more IIs and Grants on the way to complete the squadron. Also there is a motor platoon. I'm using LRDG, commando and Upham figures for those, since I'm no fan of the battlefront desert infantry, and I had a glut of uphams to use up (I've bought a load of those blisters cos I like the car ) |

6 more Crusaders, 3 Grants, 3 Lees  That now gives me enough to field a HQ of 4 and 4 plattons of 3 Crusaders, plus two heavy plattoons made up from the 3 Grants, 3 Lees and 3 Shermans. The Grants I got are "Grants with Sand Shields". I'm guesing they are the mud-guardy things over the tracks? |
