Victrix Miniatures are getting closer to releasing their first 28mm World War II miniatures in plastic. The Late War Germans will be first out of the block with Infantry and Heavy Weapons for making up the core of your Axis army.

The folks from Victrix have properly pushed the boat out with these new miniatures including a whole bunch of poses and plenty of different weapons so you can make dynamic squads for your wargames. There will be enough figures in the set for you to make a full Rifle Platoon and more besides.

You can make your regular German Infantry with their rifles and the classic MP40 and STG 44. You will also get parts for making NCOs, Officers and Radio Operators for building command elements.

As well as the basic Infantry, you'll also be able to make the likes of Snipers, Medics, Ammo Carriers, and Rifle Grenade users and there are also going to be binoculars for those who want to make observers for artillery and companions for the aforementioned Snipers.

You can also add some classic German Heavy Weapons into the mix for holding defensive lines and taking down Allied armour.

Options will include the likes of the MG42 with a tripod, 80mm Mortars, Panzerschreck, Panzerfausts and more. I think all of these sets look fantastic and because of the nature of the Victrix kits, you can do some great tinkering to make dynamic weapon teams for your skirmish wargames.

I really like the look of what Victrix is doing here and I can see these being snapped up for use in V For Victory and Bolt Action to name just two games. The idea is that the set will feature forty-four miniatures and should be released in the new year.

All of the miniatures are in 28mm scale and should match with the likes of Bolt Action. So, if you're seeking to get into the new edition of the game, this should give you a fairly solid starting point. You'd just need a few armoured elements and you'd be good to go for standard games.

What do you make of Victrix's Late War Germans?
