Great Escape Games Kickstart 28mm WWII Norwegian Soldiers
November 3, 2022 by brennon
Great Escape Games have taken to Kickstarter to expand their 28mm World War II collection with a set of Norwegians from 1940 and the Defence Of Norway.
Norway 1940 Kickstarter // Great Escape Games
This set of miniatures will allow you to bulk out the forces fighting in Norway during 1940 as the Allies and Axis clashed. Great Escape Games has noted that all of the miniatures are compatible with the ranges from Artizan, Crusader, Warlord Games, Empress and Bad Squiddo so they should slot nicely into existing collections.
The core of the campaign is focused on three particular packs. The first of these is the Command Set which comes with an Officer, his crew and some poor chap who has been lumbered with carrying the stretcher and carting the wounded off the field of battle.

There are also two Squads of Infantry that you can pick up, armed with rifles. Each set also comes with a Machine Gunner who can lay down some covering fire as you advance.
Norwegian Squad A // Great Escape Games
Norwegian Squad B // Great Escape Games
Squad A looks like they are a little more set up and ready for action, perhaps hunkering down in some blasted ruins and they engage the foe. Squad B's miniatures are in more of an "advancing" pose, perhaps going to reinforce and support the first squad!
Norway 1940 Stretch Goals
As well as what's available in these sets, the campaign has also been unlocking additional bits and pieces (or is aiming to) as part of Stretch Goals.

Norwegian Gun & Crew // Great Escape Games
Norwegian Ski Troops // Great Escape Games
The bonus miniatures run from the addition of an HMG Team which you're going to want as part of many different forces through to the larger Gun & Crew and the Ski Troops who are going to be working their way through the woods of wintery Norway.
All of these miniatures are ready to scoop up from Great Escape Games over on Kickstarter now!
Could you be tempted?

Ooh nice German troops.I can see people doing some commando raids to welcome them to Norway.
They are the Norwegians 😀
Or are they Germans cunningly disguised as Norwegians?……typical Bosch trick. Pike! Arrest that Norwegian, wave some raw fish under his nose….
Would you look at that!
if you have the figures? yes, an many others would as well, I think.
Looking to another good release from GEG, I’ve been tempted to try out some of there WWII range for a while now and these are pretty unique so would make an interesting project.
They are really nice ?
