A sudden change of plan! I found when preparing for a game that I didn't have some elements of the Russian forces so it was off to my boxes so see what I could create/use.
I was short of MMGs but I just added in some WW1 MMGs so they should not be too noticeable. There was one extra 82mm mortar needed so I use a left over figure from the Italeri's Russian winter infantry. The big gap was 120mm mortars and for this I used the ones from the Pegasus Mortar set (I had bought an extra set just in case). The crews are a mix of Airfix and head swapped WW1 Russian Heavy Weapons figures. I also used these for some extra brigade commanders that I was missing. The radio operators had their caps cut down to side caps as well.
Till then, I'll be playing Operation Sonnewende using Rapid Fire rules.
