Looks great.... show more pics :D I hope the french will regain their faith and win the scenario should you choose to play it again :)

I can very much relate to being a refugee from the averages... Back in my old WH40K days I rolled a serious amount of 1's... My friend was working at the danish institute of statistics and said it shouldn't be possible to roll so bad for so long...

Where are the miniatures from??

The French infantry are mostly the old Wargames Foundry WWI line. I originally painted them about 8 years ago before, if you can imagine, there were many 28mm WWII. The German infantry are Black Tree Design. I have found their line is very hit and miss. I really like these Germans, but some of their others are terrible.

Here is a link to more pictures of the French and Germans.

The two light French tanks are Solido and the Panhard is a terrible resin cast (I think from AFAD, I don't really recommend them). The wagon and the gun are from the Foundry Franco Prussian and WWI line. If I did the French again today I would go with the Crusader, Bolt Action or Battle Honors figures.

The German 1/2 track and Armored car are Solido and the two Pz 38Ts are from Wal-Mart.

Cool - I have an armoured platoon+ worth of BTD germans my self.. But have long since switched to 15 and 20mm.. But you are right - some of them are good.. some not..

Thank you for the information..
