75mm Pack Howitzers added to the commission (there's a lot more about to be added, but I need transfers/decals to finish off the next three regiments)

75mm Pack Howitzers aded to the commission

Not sure how effective they are in Spearhead, but they are cool!

Not very, but yes, they are cool

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

British armour has started to arrive... Cromwell and Challangers regiments, plus para armoured recon (which should be Tetrachs...)

That should keep my daily painting average up...

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

No not Tetrachs, only used in two places, Madagascar and on the Rhine crossing.

6mm British Airborne for Andi is progressing.

I'm curious why you have two stands labeled as HQ 1 A/L

I would only expect a single HQ stand in a Spearhead battalion

Is the stand without the pointy bloke a defense platoon for the Bde HQ or Recce, can't remember the TO&E for an Airlanding Brigade
