And yet More Test Fallschirmjagers

 Third test squad…final color choices! Although not historical for Tunisia they will look good on the table.

More test Fallschirmjagers

 I"ve rounded out the test squad to 8 and think I have my scheme pretty well in order.  Now to start the squads!

Is that a Panzerbüchse or you just happy to see me?

 Narrowing my focus on Fallschirmjagers in Tunisia gives me an opportunity to field Anti-tank rifles.  Which are terrible, but make for entertaining gaming.

Tunisian Tiger Tank Support

 I've decided to focus my Fallschirmjager project to Tunisia winter 42-43.  A Sturm Pioneer Battalion fought in the North under the command of Rudy Witzig as well as 2 Battalions of regular Fallschirmjagers in the South under Walter Koch both of Eben Emael fame.  I'm loosely basing my force on the Sturm Pioneers but more on that later, this is about the tiger support.

Sidetracked by German Fallschirmjagers

It all started innocently enough—a simple YouTube video about the historic invasion of Crete during World War II. What was meant to be a brief distraction turned into a deep dive into military history that has since spiraled into my latest hobby project: building a German Fallschirmjäger platoon.

Moawr Warhammer Stone Trolls

 I've been contemplating getting the full set of Stone Trolls for awhile now.  Of course eBay prices can be quite a gutpunch.  Then GW released The Old World and made the Stone Trolls made to order and I was about to order both sets when I took one more look on eBay and found someone who was selling the whole set 3D printed for half the price. 

These prints are phenomenal!  I'm so glad I got them and I didn't even have to wait the four months till the made to orders dropped. Can't wait to start painting these.
