Does anyone make Japanese bamboo & earth type bunkers in 6mm ?
I am looking for the Peter Pig 15mm type but in 6mm.
Cocktail sticks are a wee bit thick to scratch build in this scale.
Timecast 6mm VC bunkers from Vietnam era best proxy so far.
Is that the Forum equivalent of talking to yourself? :-\

Thanks Steve.
You're welcome :) . I found it to be a very useful resource for some planned games in Burma and possibly some island invasion games at some point.

Ha ha ha 🤣😂.
I trust when the Americans invaded Attu Island in May '43 they endeavoured to ABSOLUTELY ALWAYS refer to the invasion sites by their code names of Beach Yellow and Beach Blue.
It would hardly fill the troops with confidence if they knew they were to be landed in Massacre Bay and then advance into Massacre Valley... 😉

At least it went better than the recapture of Kiska X_X
313 Allied casualties in total during the operation, due to Japanese landmines and booby traps, friendly fire incidents, and vehicle accidents. The Japanese had evacuated two weeks prior.
