All of the Force Selectors usually allow one tank and one armoured car, though a few may give other options. A tank platoon is a unit built around multiple tanks and isn't being used on the day. Infantry with a tank in support is required. Any tank is ok, but please bear in mind we are playing smallish games (750 points) and thay people may not have a lot of heavy AT weapons, so King Tigers and IS-2s may not be ideal choices. For Russians, a T-34 may be a good choice.

Both will be very helpful if you can manage them.

If anyone who doesn't currently play Bolt Action would like to join in, I have a couple of spare armies I can lend out. It's an easy game to pick up and a lot of fun to play.

Provided my order on minis arrives, I will be there with Waffen SS.

Can't wait!

Have been experimenting with making terrain recently, would be happy to provide some if you could let me know what might be of use.

Anything that wouldn't look out of place in Western (or Eastern) Europe circa 1944 would be best. Hedges, fences, small buildings and ruins. That kind of thing. Any more fantastical stuff can go on the Warmachine tables or be used for 40K on the first day.
Thank you.

Sooo, my order from one month ago still hasn't shipped... Just waiting on one more item they say... (Wayland)

They've been really good at getting back to my emails and I'm out of the country ATM, so it's not like I could do much with it even if it had arrived.But, at this rate there's not much chance I'll be able to have it all painted to any decent standard by NH2016.

Currently mulling over what to do in the next 24hrs. Do I cancel the entire order and reorder direct from Warlord, or just sit it out. Got a bit of time after I get back which I was planning on dedicating to the paints but it ain't gonna happen I'm afraid... :cry:

Wayland? Yeah, they're like that sometimes. Could you ask them to just ship what they have in stock now and send the rest later?
I have the following if you need to borrow an army:
German Heer
Waffen-SS
Americans
Russians
