FALL OF THE REICH PHOTOS

With work on the 'Fall of the Reich' supplement now well progressed, I've been doing some photo-shoots for the book. Here is a quick preview of a couple of images, exclusive to this blog!

I'm pretty pleased with them so far... still Brits and a few more Germans to do though. The book should be available later this year... maybe Oct, November or December (not too specific then!). It's a period of the war I really like to play, not because of the massive German armour, but because you can use those models in the right context (so the German army feels like its still out-numbered, out-gunned, out of fuel and falling apart). A battlegroup consisting of a single Jagdtiger, a Hetzer, a platoon of Volkssturm, Hitler Youth on bicycles and some firemen armed with old French weapons would give you an idea of the feel I'm going for.

Oh, the Russians are here...
