Very nice army. Making me very jealous lol hopefully when funds allow will be getting my DAK army up and running 🤞

Great choice! I have just started my DAK… another 3-4 month project but should end up with two opposing desert armies and terrain to fight lots of battles! I would love an Italian army, but like you have mentioned, I need to watch my spending at the moment so they can wait… Thanks for the support!👍🏻

Love the quote I said to one of my buddies that has a large Commonwealth/UK force one time in a game. He tried to hit my SD Kfz 251 halftrack with his AT rifle and so failing to penetrate after a hit. I then said, The boys on the Boys didn't do much. The look was priceless after saying that. But I so love the Commonwealth box of infantry as they give you a lot of options from the Sikh's to the Australians.

Yes, I love the flexibility in 8th/commonwealth army set ups! I have some spare, along with commandos to make a jungle force... but that’s for another year! I am working on a sizeable DAK force right now, going to be similar size to take on my 8th, love the German vehicles and tanks, so Heer, pioneers, Fallschrimjager, brandenburgers... wish me luck! 🤣😂🤪🤘🏼 Glad you like it, and great that you have some good battles too 👍

Nice Army. Thanks for sharing, and showing with tips. I have been looking at them for a while now. One day, I might pull the trigger!

Glad you liked it 👍🏻 You can join the Facebook group for Bolt Action, or see if there is a gaming club nearby that might have other players, it will make all the difference! Good luck with your first army!

Loved this one seeing the army thanks for sharing it :) Have got a Sikh/indian army sat in the boxes ready to work on myself when i get the modelling/painting mojo back to get to have a go at different skin tones from those i usually work with.

The Sikh army fits in perfectly with the rest of my 8th Army so I can field a whole Sikh army, or just run a section… they are nice models though, fingers crossed for your troops and their deployment soon!
