Tale of 5 Gamers: US 3rd Army (Winter)

Relief of Bastogne

US Third Army
For my second army for the 2019 Tale of Five Gamers I have started the relief of Bastogne to support my 101st Airborne, but also to help get through the HUGE backlog I have for bolt Action. 

This US army will be built, painted and battle in addition to my 101st Airborne ;Battered Bastards of Bastogne Army' and will hopefully give me a sizeable army for the US when the challenge is complete!  

Month one is primarily infantry based, with potential for a Sherman to be added in month 2!  However I do plan on having a 1/2 track to support the US winter army.

Progress so far...

Tale of 5 Gamers: My US Airborne

Battered Bastards of Bastogne

Welcome to my first blog for the 2019 Tale of Five Gamers.  For this challenge I plan to build, paint and fight with two armies - this is the first, my United States 101st Airborne at Bastogne, Battle of the Bulge.  

The army is primarily infantry based, so lots of veteran airborne and some support to tackle the armour in later gamer.  I still have some way to go to finishing this army, but so far so good.

Progress so far...
