Title: Battle of Oosterbeek - Project
Post by: flags_of_war on 12 July 2023, 09:33:45 AM

The Lardies games reignited my love of Arnhem/Oosterbeek and got me wanting to do my own project again. I have a lot for it already and just need buildings and some gaps filled for the Germans. Then Empress come along with their new figs so I have jumped in fully with that and more.

Struggling to find Germans that I like for '44 just before the Volksgrenadier switch. Wanting uniformed Germans armed mostly with rifles but companies love to have the Stg44. So I've started using some of the Empress Volksgrenadiers and hopefully, they will do more for their Arnhem range.

Added some Luftwaffe Filed Division from Warlord. Got all my Empress airborne and can't wait to paint them.

Nice start, I seem to be going a similar route with zee Germans. Had a go at a few Offensive minis, but personally not that keen on them.
Those Luftwaffe chaps are rather good. Looking forward to seeing this project progress.
