What FOW armies do you have/want to have?
Just like it says on the label:
Painted
1750pts of Late War German Panzer Grenadiers with a couple of variations available.
1750pts of Late War Russian Infantry, again with variations available.
Still in the box
Enough for two or three more LW German companies
The same again for LW Soviets
1750 in Late War Free French (basically Americans with a twist)
What does everone else have or hope to get?

My plan is to build up a British Rifle Company with armoured support, and in the future I'm planning a Red Devils Para Company.

Re: What FOW armies do you have/want to have?
One of the cheapest full-size armies would be a Late War SS Tiger Company. Super Elite, hard as nails, easy-ish on the wallet. However morally dubious. I also happen to have most of the models in boxes already.

I'm eying an infantry-heavy Grenadiers force and/or something American-flavored.
The mad 6mm fan in me also ponders getting a couple North African forces in that scale - it looks like you could put together about 1500 points each of Germans and Commonwealth for not much more than ichi-man.
(Maybe I should put together a force at 15mm to use against everyone else first, though...

Re: What FOW armies do you have/want to have?
I know the feeling Dave, I think we all do. Too many games, too many armies, too many models, too many scales, too many variant lists. The lament of the Gamer Geek

Re: What FOW armies do you have/want to have?
You can but them in Tokyo or so I have heard but at astronomical prices. You may think GWJ screws over the locals but the FOW re-seller up in Tokyo is apparently much worse.
The net is the way to go. You can order from the website in New Zealand, but you will pay in USD anyway. Or, you can save money and buy from one of the big discounters, who usually ship for free over a certain amount.
I use the main website if I want to get some of the more obscure vehicles/blisters as the big discounters often don't stock these or have to back-order them which is a pain in the butt. I have used Caliver and Maelstrom with good results (see my post over in the links section).
Cheers

Does any one have a Soviet army? Or an American?
Re: What FOW armies do you have/want to have?
Mike has krauts and ruskies. I have some tommies on the way. Guess no-one is representing the yanks at the moment.
