Source for low price 15mm US Infantry in Winter gear?
« on: August 12, 2012, 10:53:56 PM »
My gaming club has been bitten by the Flames of War bug, and I have been affected as well.

Due to Devil's Charge being released, I have decided to create a force from the 99th Infantry Battalion (Seperate), the "Vikings".

Here is information on them:

http://www.99battalion.org/

As Devil's Charge is based in the Ardennes Offensiive, I will need to make them in Winter gear, and the cost of a Winter company from Battlefront is not ideal for teenager with no job. So are there any low-cost solutions?

BUT - be aware that the range is limited only SMGs, Garands, Bazookas and BARs!

Command Decision figures are fantastic and cheap. Buy them.

Indeed, I can't imagine why you'd want to buy anything from Battlefront at all (apart, perhaps, from bases). Their stuff is pricey and often quite sub-par compared to the likes of CD.
I told you so. You damned fools.
