Spanish civil war Pz I platoon (15mm)

[Heresy]

Hi!,

This afternoon I finished my first platoon of Pz I from Miniairons Miniatures. I'm preparing an army to play "España en Llamas" (rules based in Flames of War).

Criticism, comments, etc are welcome!.

Some time ago I paint a platoon of Autoametralladoras Bilbao, too from Minairons Miniatures:

And finally, some pictures of "España en Llamas"

An excellent looking collection there... well done!

Very nice work - this range has opened up the possibility to learn more about a conflict that is often ignored.

Looking forward to more eye candy.

Excellent paintwork, they look more like 28mm scale AFVs

Excellent painting!

Is the SCW popular amongst Spanish wargamers?

[Suber]

Outstanding work indeed!

Is the SCW popular amongst Spanish wargamers?

I don't play historical wargames (at this moment), but as far as I'm concerned, SCW is just mildly played. There are a few companies producing pretty nice ranges, but in the areas I move the focus appears to be on other conflicts.
Don't know if this happens/happened in other countries, but Civil War is (sometimes and depending where) still an issue; this kind of wargames should help to 'demistify' some concepts and to break some taboos.
I wish these companies/painters/players grow in numbers and quality

As good as always!

Hi,

Thanks you very much for your comments.

Dave, I agree with Suber. Indeed, in Spain this conflict is not very popular. However, some groups (from Spain and UK) are working in the new version of "España en Llamas", using Flames of War rules. And other group was working in an unofficial expansion of Operation Squad, using the fabulous miniatures from Empress.

Regards.

Fantastic painting.

I'm sure the gaming table looks amazing with armies of this quality
