Tank Aces

At the gaming club we have been playing the tank aces campaign from the flames of war Blood, Guts, Glory book. I went for an SS panzer company many for the fewer tanks needed, for the starting 500 points I get 2 fearless veteran Panthers; my 'ace' Hauptfeldwebel Edwin Blach-Hader has racked up impressive experience and kills in the first round, only having 2 tanks stops kills being spread over other tanks.

The first round of the campaign is coming to a close, my ace skills are a re roll one to hit roll per turn and some ambushes. For the next 200 points I will be taking a third Panther.

Flames of War

Flames of War still proves to be getting more and more popular, with the majority of my commissions being tanks!

Recently have been working on some early war Germans, and some mid war Russians.

The Germans are just an addition to an army from the states being used in a tournament later this month

Also a few late war Germans from the open fire box set heading for eBay...

And the mid war ruskies in snow mode, I've already painted a load of t34s and some t70s I must try and get some pictures of those.
