20mm chaps in tricornes painted up based on the units on the cover if Charge. I know my brother and I used 20mm marlburuan figures possiblly Douglas as well as Minifigs and Les Higgins.

Re: WSS Competition.

Does Peeler use Gloss or Matt Varnish on his fried eggs. I think Gloss makes the egg yellow look more vivid but others think its more realistic to use Matt.

For the SYW I still prefer Grants The War Game .
