Looking good mate! Have you seen Sgt. Screams use of the packed Gebirgsjager from Brittannia? We should copy that.
Maybe we should work up a small Brittannia order between the two of us. Would be another good reason to plan another game.

Hey Raz,
looking good! I really like the shot of the contractors from through the trees!

Really wishing I had gone the 20mm route now!
The 28mm Empress were too good to ignore however and now I have started the collection just keeps going.

Nothing stops you from collecting both 20mm and 28mm. I use 28mm figures for skirmishing - especially for Stargate SG-1 or horror scenarios, and 20mm figures for larger-scale actions that are more military oriented. More vehicles are available for the 20mm than the 28mm.
I even still have some 15mm stuff left that I'm slowly selling off, so I've been in all the scales (even 6mm scale) for moderns.
Great work on the figures. I especially like the Danish contractors.

Thanks guys. I'm content with all of them, but the contractors really are my favorites 
Like Sgt. Scream said the Danes are plastic models from Ceasar, http://www.plasticsoldierreview.com/Review.aspx?id=1389.
The roads are made from hardboard, which has one side with this pattern on it. I found a topic on The Guild by Jezamonos and copied his great idea! It's brilliant since the structure is already on the hardboard so it's dead simple.
@Real: certainly, another battle sounds great. Maybe we can do another minicampaign

Before I headed of to Normandy my Danes received some reinforcements consisting of a sniper team.
