French DLM, British 1st Armoured...

Already doing a DLM to oppose the Boche and it's more or less at the same stage.  Looked at 1st armoured, the toy town tanks put me off.

At one time I was planning the Panzer Lehr division and XXX Corps post D-day.  These have been supplanted by elements of the Brazilian Expeditionary Infantry Division (EID) in Italy late 1944 with accompanying armour from a U.S. tank battalion.  The opposition was a bit problematic as there are so many different versions of German organisation; so elements of a generic Volksgrenadier division with an accompanying Panzer Regiment of Pz IVs and Vs.

Meanwhile, got to press on with this lot:

1/72 Isengard HOTT
1/72 British Colonial HOTT
1/72 Napoleonic Swedish

10mm French 1940 WIP

15mm Russian Napoleonic WIP

28mm Mex-Amer War Mexican WIP

1/72 Albatross
1/72 Bf 109E
1/72 Anatra Anasal DS

1/144 Bf-110

1/450 Galleas

1/350 Black Swan pirate ship

54mm Napoleon Bonaparte

I really like how your German Recon stuff has turned out.

On paper 1st Armoured stuff isn't that bad compared to what the Germans had tank wise.....an A9 or A10 or A13 could put a 2 pdr AP round through any contemporary German tank at a fairly decent range. OK roughly half the troops in each British armoured regiment were made up of Vickers Mk VIc light tanks but the Germans still employed a lot of Pz 1's in 1940 Panzer Divisions.

Want some HE or smoke? call up the chaps in Sqn HQ and get their CS variant into action.....whats that? no 3.7" HE rounds available in France.....hmmmm :-[ well there's always smoke  ;)

The Matilda I and II's of the 1st Army Tank Brigade are another issue, but as the Arras counter attack showed having a tank, any tank is better than none.

Tanks in 1940 I guess mainly comes down to a case of not what you have but how you use it, with the Germans showing they certainly knew how to use them successfully?

Fair enough, just doesn't appeal to me as modelling project  8)
