A while a go Piers Brand made a delightful (perhaps that's not the right word given the subject) British forward aid post in the lee of a wrecked Stug, Piers has kindly sent me a picture of it, see below.
Suitably inspired I decided to make a German one, I had all the suitable AB German figures, again bought at one of the York shows a few years ago and a knocked out T34 I have been using has table dressing or as an objective marker. One of the things I like about Battlegroup is that these type of things can have a role in the game rather than just be window dressing.
Below is the one by Piers that inspired my build.

Hoping to get another Battlegroup game via Zoom arranged with George in the near future where it will no doubt make an appearance.
We are booked in for our second jab on Sunday, hurrah!
TTFN and KBO
Superb, a very well crafted and balanced scene.
ReplyDeleteThank you Norm, Mr. Barton's finely sculpted figured really help.
DeleteThat’s a gorgeous looking piece. Piers produces some inspirational work and is one of the great champions of 20mm. Add the great sculpts from AB and you have produced a winner.
ReplyDeleteHe does indeed, himself and Mr. Barton are a great advert for the scale.
DeleteIts not bad... I suppose. ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the inspiration, it keeps me from going to far down the 28mm path.
DeleteOutstanding work, Phil (and Piers)!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jonathan, not something I would have thought doing with them, I would have gone with the obvious tent.
DeleteNot bad that you know, but 28mm is better of course. Shame you had to mention those awful rules though.
ReplyDeleteIt will do, what rules would that be? Can't see any mention of awful rules only the superb Battlegroup set. Did I say Battlegroup? Indeed I did say Battlegroup.
DeleteI think your fingers slipped there, you meant to type Battleshite surely?π
DeleteNo definitely Battlegroup, probably the finest WWII rules in the world.
DeleteSuperb work
ReplyDeleteThank you Neil kind of you to say.
DeleteSuch a nice place to rest...Splendid vignette!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the endorsement Phil.
DeleteWunderbar!
ReplyDeleteDanke Mein Herr
DeleteVery nice Phil......my aid station is slightly less impressive π€
ReplyDeleteThank you Matt, I am sure yours is just as fine nonetheless.
DeleteAn excellent vignette Phil!
ReplyDeleteChristopher
Thank you Christopher.
DeleteSplendid looking diorama and aid station!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thank you for the kind sentiments Iain
DeleteA splendid addition Phil. Perhaps I will need it tonight.
ReplyDeleteThank you George, you and me both if my saves don't improve on the last game.
DeleteNice one...I like it
ReplyDeleteThank you kindly GW.
DeleteExcellent! I think I have some incomplete tanks, so maybe I will use your idea!
ReplyDeleteThank you Bartek, the idea and inspiration was all down to Piers.
DeleteOh that's pretty darn cool Phil! Looks like I've to order a few more figures from AB ;-)
ReplyDeleteThank you Nick, can't resist AB.
DeleteA lovely looking vignette Phil...
ReplyDeleteAll the best. Aly
Thank you Aly.
