There is another one which I'm about to start, Wolfstein or Spear of Destiny. I already have wolfes and german troopers but I'm still missing one figure of Adolf Hitler and one werewolf or two.

Now that, right there, is one of the best gaming ideas I've heard in a very long time...

I want to see pics of this one...ah, nostalgia!  8)

Right now I'm looking for tiny nazi flags to stick to the walls :)
BTW, do you know if the is any German officer with the classic cavalry pants and officer cap (like that plastic one from Matchbox) in the WWII German range?
Also, do you know if there are any British airborne troopers with berets instead of helmets? I wish there were British commandos...

Excellent news! Thank you
Can you tell me something about the German officer?

Without looking at figures [which are out in the garage & I'm being distracted by a nice Single Malt] I reckon you'd do well to look at:

GR162 Rommel & Ramcke
GR213 Officers, Early War

I was thinking of GR213 Officers, Early War.
Cheers!

No worries - here's the DAK fellas:

Nik's list, plus the other good suggestons like a 'Heroes pack' pretty much cover the first release schedule Leon.   :D

My copy is still in the ether but once it arrives i'll no doubt be writing 'adventures'.

So it occurs that combining 'adventure modules' with all the figures/scenery, etc. needed to play it might be an interesting development?

I'm going to look at the Theme Packs tonight, while I'm watching the England B side on ITV...  I'm hoping to have some for release with April's batch, cos we're a bit thin with releases this month with us concentrating on getting ready for Salute.

Your Dungeon is en route to the Post Office in the next hour, so should be with you tomorrow hopefully.

You can find some here, might need to rescale though. There's also some nice posters to put on your dungeon walls.

Just remember to take pics of your finished Wolfenstein dungeon. We like pics!

(Had to say that before Nik shows up).

Ofcourse forgot that he'd already been here and done that. He's faster than his own shadow, y'know.

I'll do it but you'll have to be a patient as I just ordered the miniatures I need for this project.
thanks again

Well, for normal troops I ordered early German troops with rifle and also with MP40, as well as early German officers. For the dogs I'll be using the Warmaster wolves from the Vampire Count army that I already own, for werewolves I'll be using the beast man with wolf head converted with the legs of German troops. Also I'll be using SF1 heavy troopers to use them as über soldaten (I'm going to paint them like panzers).
The good guys will be the Pendraken British Commandoes.
I'll be deligthed to hear other ideas or suggestions from other people to make this project.

Definetly I would like to see pics of that! :o
