Here's the NBFZ

Very nice! I didn't even know they made a kit of the NBFZ in that scale. Where did you get it from?

Aldramelech · « **Reply #16 on:** June 21, 2011, 03:35:07 PM »

Its from a company called JTFM Enterprises - Die Waffenkammer, who I believe are based in Canada.

I got it from the Wargames Command Post in Somerset and was quite lucky as it was the last one in stock and they are not stocking them anymore. It has to be the best resin Tank kit Ive ever bought!

Well, next time we're both down for VBCW I'm on your side: that tank looks positively vicious!

Aldramelech · « **Reply #18 on:** June 21, 2011, 07:22:57 PM »

It looks good don't it?

Unfortunatley it is one of the worst tanks ever built!

It's a "heavy tank" that has the same frontal armour as a Panzer 1, breaks down at the drop of a hat and although it has a 75mm and 37mm in the main turret it can only fire one at a time

I think it will spend most of its time hiding from anti tank rifles.

Been waiting for an order from Renegade forever, but it finally arrived so Ive got the first Battalion done

And here are the "Blue Germans"

Next up is the Brigadier and command group.

Heres the Brigadier and hangers on:

Doing a FO team next, then its an HMG and Mortar for each Battalion.

Im now thinking about Cavalry but I havent made up my mind yet.

Ah tanks rolling accross the British isles. Reminds me of my vacation.

Very nice minis. But with out the background I never would have got why guys in German costume were prancing about.

I love your stuff- the colours are just amazing, and I love the almost cartoon-style faces- some how it seems to fit the style, reminding me of teh old Art Deco posters. - What Games system are you going to use (I am intereted in teh movement bases)?

Thanks Gents

We use Brigadier 38 as our rules system, they are very good. The movement trays are from Warbases and are designed to fit 2p's as figure bases. He does them in just about any combination you can think of and will happily do custom requests too.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_shadow_factories
Shadow factories were set up from 1936 onward to ensure that 'all the eggs were not in one basket' in light of the belief that a war was inevitable.
I suppose the most interesting parts of this article refer to the factories producing the Hispane-Suiza 20mm and the 1919 Browning MMG. Might be interesting to see " Lincolnshire poachers" back up their shotguns with 20mm auto-cannons and "Wiltshire farmboys" with a surplus of '30.cal Brownings'.
