Re: More WW2 North Africa?

I think having LRDG figures more suited to being in & around their vehicles is a perfect idea.

Desert air/groundcrew for RAF, Luftwaffe etc is a fantastic idea. I have often read how RAF mechanics were given plenty of work looking after the aircraft due to sand etc getting into the works so to speak.
I dare say it was the same for the Germans & Italians too.
It immediately conjures up dioramas of crew working on Kittyhawks, Spitfires, BF109s, Stukas etc.
Also put in that group would be those arming the aircraft too.

Vichy troops and Libyan and other north African colonial troops please

Re: More WW2 North Africa?

Lots of great ideas but there really need to be some decent standard Italians first. I'd like to see some colonial troops next for Italy, Vichy France and Free France.

Re: More WW2 North Africa?

Greeks would be a good addition, never done before

Re: More WW2 North Africa?

Yes to Greeks they really deserve to be immortalised.

By the way, for those that are interested in PC gaming and mods that make them more historically accurate Company of Heroes 3 is coming out. The theme of the game will be North Africa & The Mediterranean, so will have strong doses of Brits, Italians, Afrika Korps, etc. as well.
