World War II Wishlist?

[uarusstrabo]

Any chance of some kit for river assaults? DUKWs, assault boats, bailey bridges and the like.

[fred.]

These would be nice - but I can't see anyone wanting too many.

Have you seen that there are a few river assault bits already - Buffalo, which comes with a waterline version, and fairly recently released rubber boats

There was a lot of fun about my idea of "waterline stuff" ,you know bubbles ect 
But I was in fact serious about some ww2 marine things. After watching ABOVE US THE WAVES film I am sure I would like to wargame some harbour special opperations.
What about the X-Craft midget submarine? Nice piece of British history and I think no manufacturer ever made it. This and a generic diver, yes may be waterlined  . Bouoys for marking harbour defence nets and harbour searchlights would also come in handy. Anyone else would be interested in such things?

Think you are going to have to build that for yourself.

Nice to see some Finns.  How about a Lahti light machine gun for the Winter War stuff?  And, of course, some 'Continuation War' (41-44) Finns.

[Pruneau]

Do we have limbered AT and Infantry guns available?  Like the 88 AA gun or the 105 Howitzer?

Hi, first post so might as well jump in with both feet!  What I would like to see:

Russian 37mm AA (ground mount) -- these were the most common AA weapon in use in the Red Army, would be very nice to have.
Russian 85mm AA (ground mount)
Russian 50mm mortars
Russian 120mm mortars
Russian wagons

German Early War Anti-tank rifles (PzB39)

[OldenBUA]

Russian 120mm mortars

"SV48 120mm mortar with crew (3)" is what you mean with this one?
Others look useful, though wagons could probably be scrounged from other lists.

Comets and challengers for me along with some russian IS-2's

Cheers for that, I'd missed it (and will be ordering some)!  Really need the 50mm mortars and 37mm AA though.

[ciaphas]

Is there any plans to make these as they are essential for Airborn Recce.

As far as Russian WW2 guns are concerned:

- a Dshk AAMG on or off a truck (I may well convert a Viet Minh one pro tem).
- 76mm M27 infantry howitzer (or possibly M43 on a 45mm AT gun carriage) - six equipped each regimental gun company and some rifle brigades had them as field artillery
- 122mm M30 divisional howitzers to go with the 76mm divisional guns.

I've proxied a Bofors as a stand in for the 37mm M39.  Note that another manufacturer does do the 85mm AA.
