Full Battalion

The full battalion all drawn up in battle array.

Engineers and horsemen.
 

Towing anti-tank guns.

Platoon command group.

Infantry platoon.  horses don't last long on the Eastern Front.

WWII German Cossacks

A unit like this fighting against the Soviet Union would do anything to avoid capture.

They know certain death is the only outcome.

So I give these troops a +1 morale bonus when fighting Soviet forces.

 These troops don't have the firepower of regular German infantry.

But I have given them machine guns and a few anti-tank rocket launchers.

 Troops morale is higher if they can see the flag.

 Flag troops are often easy to knock over, so they get a larger base.

The unit.

Full Units

I like full units when I can do them.

These troops wear a mixture of traditional and WWII German uniforms.

German helmets and stripped to the waist for heavy work.

German uniforms on the men on the horses.

The mortar crews also enjoy a quick dance to entertain the troops.

WWII German Allies

I tried to make this unit complete.

Commanders, and flag men.

Anti-tank platoon, with horses to tow the guns.

The Revell German Artillery set to tow the HaT anti-tank guns.

Crews for all the guns.

Cossacks

In WWII many oppressed peoples in the Soviet Union sided with the Germans against Communism.  These are Orthodox Christian Cossacks.

I took a variety of Cossack figures and others and made these troops.

Some of them are Cossacks by Strelets and others are various WWII figures by Ykreol, Revell and other companies.  Some of these are Imex Pioneers.

Christian clergy as part of the command group in the front row.

They also have anti-tank guns.

Infantry and heavy machine guns.

Two platoons of infantry.
