A couple of new options for those diving into Battlegroup, the 20mm World War II wargame. The Plastic Soldier Company has offered up two new sets of miniatures that could be handy during your scraps with the Allies.

The first is a set of 81mm Mortars which can be added into your force to start raining down ordinance on your foes. The set comes with two mortars alongside the six crew that use them. You also have the ammo boxes which add a bit of character to the little scenes on your bases.

You can also hose your enemies down with the addition of the German Afrika Korps MG34 Tripod Teams.

This set comes with two of the MG34 and the six crew figures as you might have guessed. There are separate head options for the soldiers in this kit so you can do some mixing and matching.

I would imagine many folks playing as the Afrika Korps are going to find these exceptionally handy. Set them up and start pummelling the enemy with bullets and mortar shells. It would certainly keep me hidden in my sandy foxhole.

Are you tempted to snap these up for use in Battlegroup or beyond?
