Title: Fiends of the Eastern Front
Post by: dominic on 10 January 2007, 10:25:17 PM

I've just been reading "Fiends of the Eastern Front".  It's a classic British comic (originally published in the 2000A.D. comic) of how a German soldier finds out that the Rumanian allies that he is fighting with are actually vampires!

It's really quite cool to see the vampires going for the Russian infantry, cossacks and even T-34s!

You can get the reprinted comic from Amazon here:

Now, who does Rumanian Vampires dressed in WW2 uniforms...

I've seen WW2 German vampires, but no Rumanians!  :?

There are rumanian vampires in the Gotterdamerung line, but they are 1:48 scale. Too big for 28 mm fans like me...  :cry:

Wow!  You're right!
Maybe they will be recast into Nick's Project X line one day!

I have the novelized version of this at home.....I haven't read it yet!

It was put out by the Black Library (Games Workshop)
