Hi Folks,

I'm a huge fan of the WW1 Period and despite already having a growing 10mm Pendraken collection, I finally painted up those 28mm miniatures which so far lived a sad life of oblivion in a cardboard box in my basement. Been waiting for a moment of motivation for these since..erm..3 years or so and now.. here they are...hope you like them.




The whole lot:


And for the Allies:

U.S Marines advancing in a trench in the Argonne Forest

Nice!

What rules do you intend using??
I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

Excellent, J.S. Love the camouflaged helmets.  8)
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

Thanks  :)

I'll either use Contemptible Little Armies or The Great War by Warhammer Historical...the latter has the advantage that friends of mine who are not into historical wargaming ( 40k only..) already know the rules more or less..
It seems that late in the war the AEF also experimented with helmet camouflage..maybe I'll give it a try once the rest of the U.S. infantry arrives
