Cavalry in IABSM III
Rich Clarke mentioned to me the other day that he was working on the Stats for cavalry on the Eastern Front for the up-coming IABSM supplement with the unpronouncable name !
He wondered whether it was time well spent as he doubted many of us possessed or even had an interest in the cavalry used in the East.
Well, I for one have dug out my 20mm WWII "donkey wallopers" to show I AM interested and will use them, given the chance.
Here's a few shots of my cavalry ...
These are Britannia Germans.
Trotting past a Soviet Farm Collective.
Officer rather conspicuous at the front, asking for a sniper shot !
And here are the Russians (can't recall the manufacturer)
Getting some orders from a senior officer.
This will be my last post for a while as I am off to the US of A for a conference in Kansas City and then my cunning plan is to afterwards fly to Dulles International, rent a car and make a trip to Gettysburg before coming home !
Excellent figures, you don't see too many of them around, they'd be very interesting to play with I guess.
ReplyDeleteThose are all nice figures.
ReplyDeleteStephen, if you ever figure out the manufacturer of those 20mm Cossacks, pray let me know. I am currently working on a set of Revell Cossacks, who are different from these chaps in that they have capes.
I have been wracking my brains figuing out what to do with ostfront cavalry and am glad Richard is on it too.
I am thinking maybe raids and recon?
