Two new companies.

I painted two more full companies with their supports. So now I have two German companies and two British ones, four in total, and right just before holidays end.

I still have enough unpainted miniatures from the same boxes to do one more company of each nation, and I may paint them in Xmas holidays, but for now I already have enough units to play some games. What I need now is buildings and vehicles; so I think I'll finish two Stugs III I have on the desk, and then do all the buildings to have a proper battlefield to play.

BTW, Jack if you are reading this, I tried Crossfire's introducing scenarios with two friends who were mildly interested in the game. One came from Warhammer and told me he'd read the rules but he didn't in the end. Moreover, he was quite distracted during the game, made many mistakes, confused some units and lost almost all of them. He did not ask for another game and I didn't bother to ask. The second one, who came from Bolt Action, sent me a message a day before the game to tell me that he tried to read the rules but they were too difficult and quit. After failing into finding opponents for Crossfire, I've decided to focus on Company Commander as it can be played solo :)

I am in a local whatsapp group with more than 50 members and who call themselves historic players but they only play Bolt Action, Tanks and Flames of War, games I tried but don't like. It's a pity where I live nobody wants to go out of their confort zone and try new things even if I bring both armies, table, and rules translated into Spanish. I suspect Crossfire and similar old rulesets are difficult to younger people, used to more reachable and friendly readable and playable games.

The four full companies ready for battle.

Some officers and specialists on individual bases for Company Command.

I found these boxes for 1.20€ each that are perfect for storing my little armies.
