The Fallschirmjäger Take The Battlefield In Flames Of War

September 27, 2019 by brennon

Battlefront Miniatures has dropped a whole bunch of awesomeness into the mix for the Fallschirmjäger this week as folks expand their D-Day German forces in Flames Of War.

First up we have the Fallschirmjager Company which comes with a massive boost of infantry. These soldiers are good at defending and attacking, armed with all sorts of weapons which allow them to take the fight to the enemy or dig in.

This is then bolstered by a set of different gun crews with the Fallschirmjager 7.5cm Tank Hunter Platoon.

This is a good option for those that want to start punching through enemy armour and dealing with the Allied threat as they push further into occupied territory. You can then add in some options for expanding the infantry elements offered up this week with the likes of the Fallschirmjager Mortar Platoon...

...and also the Fallschirmjager Rifle Platoon and Fallschirmjager sMG42 Machine-gun Platoon.

These are the neat options which start to add a bit more flavour for your force and expand on the ways you can use infantry. Tanks are cool and stuff but they only really have one proper battlefield use and they are massive targets. A band of soldiers, armed to the teeth, can be good at a whole host of things from protecting objectives through to assaulting tanks, dug-in positions and more.

D-Day Campaign

As well as the new releases the team at Battlefront also announced the launch date for the D-Day Campaign they are running with us.

Watch out for the launch on October 28th where you'll be able to take part with both Flames Of War and TANKS. The fight for the Allies will take them from the beaches of Normandy through to the liberation of Paris.

Are you going to be prepared?
