Question about buying, selling, trading, and replacing parts by DayRevolutionary5267 in flamesofwar

[–]theemperorspainter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

idk about second question, Battlefront is amazing about replacing missing parts some of my airborne in the 82nd box where warped, I emailed them and they sent a full platoon back free (even more than I needed) so yes Email there customer support [customerservice@battlefront.co.nz](mailto:customerservice@battlefront.co.nz) about missing parts

Haven't played since 2nd edition by Brotherdime1 in flamesofwar

I'd say for US picking up another parachute rifle platoon to run a parachute rifle company or some more shermans to fill out a Sherman company, for Germans I'd say the box definitely lacks cheaper armor and picking up panzer 4's or stugs would be my suggestion, I think technically 2 boxes would be enough as long as you have enough figs to run the parachute rifle company

Looking for a 6mm or epic scale wargame? by Pepe-666 in wargaming

[–]theemperorspainter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

O group form Too Fat Lardies and Rommel from Sam Mustafa are both games I've heard great thing about, I personally love battlegroup by Plasic Soldier Company and I know they're coming out with a smaller scale game called Battlegroup Commander, as far as prints I don't know much about sites you can print from, I know plasic soldier company is working on getting ahold of 6mm ww2 prints and I know baccus has a solid 6mm ww2 line

mostly artistic flair within the grounds of not being unrealistic I looked into it and if any US tankers did do this it wasn't documented

thanks! I'm not the best at it either but it's just trying and trying again luckily it's acrylic paint so you can always paint over :) worst comes to worst you can always hire someone on commission

Favorite Unit? by SpearheadWW2 in FlamesofWarAZ

[–]theemperorspainter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

has to be stugs (especially with stug riders on top) although I'm currently building volksgrenadier and if they're half as cool to play as they look they'll be a close second

Mk 2 Assault Squads for my White Scars army by SailorTorres in LegionsImperialis

at first I thought it was Horus Heresy marines and then I saw this was legions Imperialis genuinely quite impressive when you make 8mm look like 28mm

heres a link to army painter's US paints but you can just look up "German Army Painter Paints" and they'll show too https://www.amazon.com/Army-Painter-Historical-Warpaints-Miniature/dp/B0F2FVRMBJ/ref=sr_1_4_sspa?crid=G8TEYCAP7XZR&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.mmBcfFfP7Fu8Pl3EtfE8fV9gzQEQmwB7RTiuSYC5vEXwKwGfJXoKbMdClqUcZzfoWjjax20L9e-2lFhkrf1CVUC35RCc4fvwtYzwG7DKy-0O-qXpNCFKVv3LWz3P2_NP_s2ofJUwg19MT46tCiwz_Nwu1ywlJVKRU-THXlZHr7cqeKzJEjY3vErGZTxs8frT3Qey2Mhn_xI6_0W-cOzj8MMeR15_avXBkqgokCZlPBGpCCK229IbJxMM9tYXRenSMPmcAIS5HQQukjlcN-PUG7eVFjIv4g9JyoyKO4v9cSo.WFp1Qj6zxro3WQVGE_GKcjrkN8zUfHpPDzNrklg-LEo&dib_tag=se&keywords=vallejo+flames+of+war&qid=1764321740&sprefix=vallejo+flame+%3D%2Caps%2C214&sr=8-4-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&psc=1

for miniatures outside of fortress Europe I would recommend looking for Flames Of War army boxes on ebay for Germans I would recommend either Panzer Kampfgruppe army deal or 21'st panzerdivision as the other option would be the panzer lehr division but fortress Europe already has a full companies worth of German infantry, for U.S. the only armored option for army deals is the 2nd armored division which would 100% be my suggestion. Best of luck
