8th Army

After having a few games of Chain of Command (Western Europe) I could not resist the Perry's 8th Army box set.

Box contents

They went together very easily. Most just need the arms and helmet attaching and the flash was very minimal. As you can see from the above image the box set has enough for a full Platoon. My box also had an extra command sprure so I was able to make three LRDG figures as well.

My basing system is as follows:

• SMG's on hexagonal base
• Rifle on round (2p's)
• LMG large rectangle (two figures)
• Pistol and 'special' on square

I undercoated them with GW foundation yellow (whatever the name is).

And, of course, they need someone to fight so the Afrika Korp box is on its way!
