"PaulMc blooded the 338th Rifle Division at Karapol..." I'll say, they're still searching around the general area looking for their front teeth! :( German infantry are tough to shift when they're in a prepared position. Although I'm sure Shock Brigade Svyatoslav will have ample opportunities to aven...

Hi there Barry, I love this site, it's been a real inspiration for me. I've loved looking at the photos of all of the figures, especially those from the 'League of Augsburg' period. Those uniforms and flags always remind me why I became a wargamer in the first place. I now have a problem, I MUST get...
