Road to Breakthrough (Assault 2) pt1

Well, once I heard those guys over at Breakthrough Assault were hosting their own tournament in February, and it would be down south, I had to join in the fun. But what to take!?

1750pts late-war. So many choices!

• U.S Airborne Easy Company (using those plastic openfire guys)
• Estonian S.S 
• Schwere Panzers (king-tiger-riffic)
• Kampfe groupe Brinkman/Swoboda/Graebner/Hummel
• Pieper SS
• East Front Grenadiers
• Panzer Lehr
• Fallschirmjager
• Irish Guard Shermans 
• Brit Churchills

Hhhmmm. 

Then my amazing girlfriend told me that she was getting me the BP44 Armoured Train for Crimbo - problem solved! 

Add the train with the plastic grenadiers from open fire, a looted T34-85, a cannon welding Stuka, some Flak36's, King-tiger and Tank Escort Stug's - and you have a list with a combination of all my favourite things. Maybe not the usual min-max list of doom, but a fun painting challenge to get the train done in two months.

Pew Pew Thomas!

I'll be blogging the journey as I did with my FJ's for Warfare Reading, hope you enjoy!
