CapnJim's WW2 Stuff: Spring '45 Scenario #1 AAR...Page 17...27 Jul 25).

[CapnJim]

And these shots are my late war US stuff.  Figures are Empress metal and Wargames Factory plastics (and a Warlord metal). 
   

[CapnJim]

Now, for my US Army airborne boys.  There are some Warlord metals and plastics, as well as Artizan Designs and a few Battle Honors.  The AT gun is Warlord (it's the same gun as the mid-war US guys - I just did up 2 crews...).

To be fair, I purchased the guys with darker bases and 82rd shoulder patches already painted...the rest I did.

[CapnJim]

And here is some miscellaneous US stuff.  The vehicles are diecasts.  The Major is a Wi Giants in Miniature, and his driver/radio guy is a Warlord metal.   The medics are one each Warlord plastic and metal.

[CapnJim]

Next up are my US Marines.  Mostly Warlord metals and plastics, with a few Gaddis Gaming guys in there.  The Platoon Sergeant is a Wi Giants in Miniature.

The tank is a diecast, and its crew are Brigade Games metals.

[CapnJim]

The last of my Allied troops at this point are British Paras.  They are a mix of Warlord plastics and Battle Honors metals.  The chaps in the darker red berets came painted that way - I did the rest.  You'll notice there are extra Bren and PIAT teams, as well as a couple extra PIAT gunners...

Next, I'll have pics of my Axis forces - Germans and Japanese.  Later this week, I would imagine...in the meantime, I hope you enjoy these group shots!

A great collection here. My favourite is the little pickup truck, so weird to see in army colours.

[Grumpy Gnome]

So many great pieces! 👏🏻

[Ash]

Great collection.

[CapnJim]

Thanks, fellas!

A great collection here. My favourite is the little pickup truck, so weird to see in army colours.

Yeah, it's a neat little truck.  It hasn't appeared in any battles yet - I gotta come up with a scenario in which to use it!

And with all those Allies, they need somebody to fight.  Thus, I have some Axis troops to show you all.

We'll start with the Germans.  First up is my Heer grenadier platoon, with some supports.  The infantry figures are Warlord metals and plastics, and Wargames factory plastics.  The dismounted Panzer crew are a Warlord metal and some metal figs whose manufacturer I don't recall...   The StuG crew are Wargames Atlantics plastics.

The bigger Panzer IV is a 1/48 diecast.  The smaller one is a toy I got and tarted up.  It scales in at 1/52.  The Stug is Warlord - my wargaming bud Ted gave it me painted up like that!  The Puma is metal, and I don't know the manufacturer - -I got it painted as such at a Convention years ago...

[CapnJim]

Here are some more Germans.  They are parts of 3 different platoons, which as you can see are works in progress.  We have panzer grenadiers, Panzer Lehr, and SS troops in there.  They are a mix or Warlord metal and plastic, Artizan Design metals, and Wargames Atlantic plastics.  My ultimate goal is to have a full supported platoon of each...

The left SdKfz 251 is a Rubicon kit, and the right one is a diecast.  The Puma is a Warlord kit.

[CapnJim]

Here are the last of the Germans.  The figures are HQ types, a mix of Warlord and Artizan Design metals.  The vehicles are all diecasts.

[CapnJim]

And, finally, the Japanese.  They all all Warlord, both metals and plastics.

That's it for my WW2 stuff.  I think my US 1920s/302 gangster stuff will be next, up in the Pulp Board.

Super stuff. I like that gaming matt as well, which make is that one?

[Freddy]

Seem like something they used on the airfields and depots. A whatif German raid in England maybe? Or simply the Japanese attack on the Pacific.
Btw, nice work on the Axis forces

Thanks, Freddy. 

I'll come up with something in which to use that truck....

I picked it up at a convention in '21.  Not sure 100%, but I think it's a Deep Cut Studios mat...
