ReplyDeleteI wonder if the compositions of each infantry unit will be possible with a box of Airfix soldiers? Their old, old infantry had Panzerschreks, but did they ever do infantry with Panzerfausts?
ReplyDeleteI hope there's special rules for all of thos odd prone, dead or surrendering figures you used to get too :-D
