Title: Late war Poles?
Post by: lentulus on 25 October 2011, 12:08:51 AM
While it is quite easy to build a Polish force in the west out of British kit, and reasonably possible to assemble a Home Army force out of SCW bits and Germans it would be great if you converted a few Red Army poses to have the soft "field cap" version of the Rogatywka to provide a bit of personality for a "Polish People's Army" force.

I hate Poles. I was thumped yesterday by a Polish opponent who was using a Polish army.

Surely you felt sorry for him and let him win? ;)

Oh, when doing late war Poles, you must have a dog. You cannot do a LW Polish T34/85 without a dog.

Why? Because without it, you cannot win the war!!! Have you any idea how many 'big cats' this one dog has dispatched?

As for breed, not too sure, but I think it's an Alsatian. Maybe some of the more learned members of this forum will know.

I planned to use the one from the Soviet engineer kit, with the "special backpack" filed down a bit.  The pose and breed are certainly OK.
