I wanna start a British FOW army. What a good start? I like the look of the British Paras does it make the start of a decent army or am I better off start with the British / American models in Open fire?

Thanks Guys

Well if you can split a box with someone else or even 2 boxes you get A LOT of tanks and paras to work with for 70 bucks. With the rule book and cardboard terrain on top of that you have an excellent package to start with.

All armies can be viable within the era you choose you have to play them correctly to do it.

Maybe ill pick up the British para company and open fire to start with.

My advice is if you like armour look at either 'Hell's highway' or PDF's like Taurus persuant, for para's ( my favourite army) go for A bridge too far! But be aware they are all likely to be amalgamated into 1 big book due out January

Thanks Reaver. I want to go for Paras so maybe ill wait for the Jan book.
