I just remembered that there is a small range of ww2 Greek infantry by Burn's miniatures
https://www.templarwargames.co.uk/page/28mm-figures-28mm-ww2-greeks-burns-miniatures-
alas the majority is with greatcoat, which means that they not suitable for Crete, since the weather was very hot for greatcoats. Only one officer from the command pack has not the greatcoat.

Italian helmets can be found from warlord games but probably you already know that.

Thank you. I looked at the Burns Miniatures a couple of years ago ‘in the lead’ and just thought they were too slender to
mix with the rest of our group’s collection (chunkier sculpts like Artizan, Crusader, Gorgon and Foundry.) They remain the only Greek ww2 range out there though.

Thanks! We’re playing the Chania Gate scenario again next week - not done it with Chain of Command yet so should be an interesting game.
