Flames of War Armies & Table Build

To start off, I am currently waiting for my Flames of War boxes to arrive – expected within the next 2 weeks. I will be building the following:

• German LW “Panzer Kampfgruppe” Army
• American LW “Combat Command” Army
• British LW “Armoured Battlegroup” Army
• Additional Units: Tiger Heavy Tank Platoon
• Additional Units: Sherman Armoured Troop
• Additional Units: Hummel 15cm SP Artillery Battery
• Additional Units: M12 155mm Artillery Battery
• Additional Units (Not Official): German Secret Weapon

Also known as “a lot of plastic”.

In the mean time, I am listing the game components I need to make (some I have started):

• Greenery – Trees, Bushes, Bocage, Hedgerows
• Road Components – I want to make the roads modular in a way that different layouts can be created from the same components.
• River/Stream – I have a nice product from Woodland Scenics that mimics water.
• Scatter Terrain – Bridges, Fences, Telegraph Poles
• Buildings – Currently I have ordered two of the city ruins bundle from Battle Kiwi – expected in a week. I will be adding more features to them like wall details & floors. I am going to get a bunch of town/farm houses for rural terrain.

So far this is on my to do list. Its a bit of a long road, but I consider myself a fast worker as long as the builds are systematic for mass production.

I will share as much as possible my methods of building diorama stuff for anyone.

As a sneak peak, below is a little progress on the ” German Secret Weapon”. I am still working on the scenario and how to incorporate it into the game without breaking the game XD.
