I think it's going to have to be some more Eureka SYW Frogs this payday... But only because the new AB Wellingtonics (Young Guard Chasseurs a Cheval, Westphalian Cuirassiers, Saxon Hussars & Spanish Lancers) aren't available to buy yet...

Apparently they do Fallschirmjäger as well...
So do Offensve Miniatures, who do a lovely FJ set of tank riders, 8 of the little buggers in a pack. Of course you'd then need a tank. The Rubicon Panther is lovely.

Far too late war for me!

I might order a few Crusader early Germans though...

Funnily enough I’m just looking at my Crusader early war FJ. Unusually for me I think they are all painted but I was checking the 1940 CoC lists to see if I needed to buy any more.

Nah, the Rubicon King Tiger is the way to go, lots of photos of the Ardennes Offensive with Fallschirmjaeger riding on them. :)

I confess I am looking at the Artizan US Infantry in greatcoats to partner my Ardennes Germans....

As nice as the kit looks I try not to have anything that will dominate a game too much. The Panther has been sufficient so far. I made sure my Brits have a Firefly for this very reason! Hopefully they'll get an outing on Sunday. I've booked the table!

Just arrived in the post, 3 boxes of Buffalos (the armoured, swimming variety) Battlefront models OOP for some years, & some assorted German kit.
