Hauptmann





Calgary AB, Canada

Theres a whole host of reasons I'm getting 3. The biggest ones are 1) Want to get the shermans for my dad and his armored company 2) Want to give the paratroopers to my cousin to get him started 3) I want the Germans to expand my 3 current German armies (either that or start two new ones)

Just my 2 cents

2.

That'll be enough to get a solid start on a German list - definitely enough to do a StuG Abteilung with another box of PSC StuGs - and will mean that I'll have enough to nicely round out my British.

Fort Campbell

1 Definitely, maybe 2. My Paratrooper force is solid enough right now, but I'd like a British/US Sherman Armored Company, and with the tanks I already have 2 of them will fill in the rest pretty well.

Plus I guess it would be a real solid start for a German army.

None. It is after all a starter set and I've been playing for years. Plus I don't like plastic 15mm infantry.

I will be purchasing 1, as the Germans will provide some variety for my Germans and it will be good for the club I am starting.

One, but possibly two. If anything I'll go into it with two buddies--buy one for the tanks, give the infantry to my buddy and they'll buy another box.

Same. Anyway, from that kit I'd need only StuGs.

Definatley one, possibly 2.
My sons are getting interested in Fow, and the starter box would be ideal for them to get to grips with.

Ramsden Heath, Essex

Yeah, I'm thinking none.

I have the 3rd ed mini rulebook and more Shermans than I know what to do with. I like the look of the infantry but there would bee too much superfluous stuff for me.

So if anyone's looking to offload the infantry drop me a line.

One definitely, maybe two to really flesh out the forces. I do have the beginnings of some mid war desert armies, so this will open up late war for me.

I'd take one box if I knew that I could find somebody to trade off Allies, book and dice. But if all else fails, there is always e-bay...
