[Helen]

Hi Guys,

Well it's not really new news, but news all the same. It hard trying to keep up with the releases. We have Chieftain, BAM, JTFM and Renegade all releasing WW2 miniatures:

Somewhat annoying that. Renegade have quite enough to be going on with finishing their various WW1 ranges. Austrians still without  command figures. grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

[Poliorketes]

Austrians still without  command figures. grrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Sad but ture  
Just one command blister and a Schwarzlose MG is all they need to make the range work. As it is now, it's worthless.

[Paul Hicks]

Don't fear Poliorketes I think another company is going to take up the slack on that one.

Really? Excellent news!

Ooh, a Schwarzlose! That'd be good for the Winter War to. I have actually fired one (6,5 mm M/14) when I was in the youth home guard.

[Plynkes]

Good solid gun by what I hear. They seemed to have trouble working properly when you put them in an aeroplane, though. Not a comforting thought if one happens to be an Austro-Hungarian aviator.

Which? Brigade?

Lucky me I was not in a AVIATIK D.I BERG, then, but atop the 17th century fortification wall of my home town of Kalmar, defending it from the nefarious B Company. As I recall , during my turn at the the grips, I only got to spray them with half a belt of wood plugs but I am sure I tought them a lesson they forgot in a hurry!

The world is poorer for the lack of the Géricault painting of this scene: Hammershield at the Walls of Kalmar.

Also I want Paul to talk more about this:

Damn strait, it is! I Renegeade releases a Schwarzlose kit I will do a vignette of that next best thing to glorious occasion.

In other WW2 release news, Mark Sims (Crusader minis) posted pics of greens for his FJ HQ pack up on his Yahoo group. Support weapons (5cm and 8cm mortars, MG34 on tripod, and ATRs) to follow. All are due for release in May.

[janner]

Must admit I succumbed to Crouchie's Soviet tanks at Salute and now have a couple of each in various stages of assembly.
