Wolf's Flames of war late war V4 update
Scope
So I am cheating some as I decided not to build armies from the ground up but take what I already have and update it… but then I will do that for 4 armies so I guess it kinda counter balance the laziness. The lists are described in the order they will be worked on, except for the brits and the Jerries which will be worked a bit at the same time in order to manipulate my mind to see more completion than if I did sequentially.
British List 100 pts:
| unit name | points | ||
| HQ 4 shermans | 16 | ||
| 3 shermans 75 and 1 firefly | 17 | ||
| 100 | |||
| 3 shermans 75 and 1 firefly | 17 | ||
| 3 shermans 75 and 1 firefly | 17 | ||
| 4 Stuarts | 8 | ||
| 3 shermans 75 and 1 firefly | 17 | ||
| 2 M10 | 8 |
Just missing a troop to get a full Sherman Squadron, so it does make me smile as I do have a thing for full companies, squadrons and Battalions.
To complete this I will nee to paint:
2 M10
1 Stuart
2 Fireflies
and 8 shermans
Total 13 more minis to be painted.
German List 100 pts:
| 11 | 2 PZ IV H HQ | |
| 28 | 5 PZ IV Troop | |
| 28 | 5 PZ IV Troop | |
| 33 | 3 Panther Troop | |
| 100 | ||
On top of my beloved Pz IV H I shall sprinkle…. for Jerry’s greatest happiness not Tigers but 3 Panthers. Because no I couldn’t be assed to paint 6 more Pz IV and also because I have no panther painted yet and it is an utter shame. Plus Das Reich and Hitlerjungend had each one battalion of panther while in Normandy if I am correct.
To paint 3 Panthers.
US tanks 100 pts : baby battalion
So I went for regular tanks not veteran because I wanted to have the mass of the US tanks versus the more elite german Panzer Kompanie.
That gave me 2 not minimal but not full Tank Companies:
| unit name | points | ||
| HQ 2 M4 | 7 | ||
| 4 M4 | 14 | total | |
| 4 M4 | 14 | 98 | |
| 4 M4 | 14 | ||
| HQ 2 M4 | 7 | ||
| 4 M4 | 14 | ||
| 4 M4 | 14 | 75 | |
| 4 M4 | 14 |
For a total of 28 M4, and yes there is NO 76mm in this list.
So I have to paint 16 more tanks as I only have 12 ready at the moment, one company will be fully OD green (don’t Kick me if it ain’t the real historical naming for the base US Army green) and the other company will have the 2 tone camo, this should strike a nice feel while getting those 2 units on the field.
16 more tank
Soviets 100 pts:
| T34 Battallion | ||
| 3 | HQ | |
| 2 | 1 * 85 mm | |
| 30 | 10 T34 Company | |
| 2 | 1 * 85 mm | |
| 30 | 10 T34 Company | |
| 2 | 1 * 85 mm | |
| 30 | 10 T34 Company | |
| 99 |
Well… that’s a full battalion and it shall make me smile.
I already have 21 of those tins painted and ready to go, meaning I have 10 more 76s to get done and one 85 mm turret for the HQ.
10.5 Minis
For a grand total of : 42.5 Minis to paint to get there.
I won’t have it done by the end of the D-Day campain but I think maybe early next year with the Soviets?
At least that will give a bit of MASS to the amount of miniatures I painted.
See you for the next updates and some pictures
