Hi all,

Working in a scenario for some friends next weekend. Elements of the 15th Pz including the 8th panzer regiment and the 115th schutzen regiment must clear the ridge and take the high points. Will post some pre pics here and follow-up next weekend with a full battle report. The British have elements of the 6 and 2 RTR and a BN of the 1 KRRC.

Thanks all... after years and years of wargaming I finally decided to paint a World War II army. NOW I AM ADDICTED - I need Italians, French and um, Russians, and early war, late war, AAAGGGHHHH someone stop me.  :D

Yeah, I'm feeling that too. Slowing down a lot after making and painting several regiments worth of stuff for canadians and germans but want lots more. Great part is they don't take up much space compared to my usual 28mm minis. Lovely looking job on everything.

The battle begins. The 8th Panzer Regiment lead the assault spread across the table from left to right.  On the right is the supporting 115th Schutzen Regiment. The objective is to clear the hills and my version of an escarpmentesque, if that's a word.
