The new Bolt Action Western Desert book has a splendid additional squad selection for the DAK, i.e. Schutzen, and these fine fellows get an option for a second MG34 plus the first one is a freebie. Orange Dave was delighted when he read this so naturally I've decided to add a bit more firepower to my squads and (now I've had a chance to skim through the book) have a bit of a re-organisation at the same time. Here they are!
All painted and based using the same recipes as described for my earlier DAK. I'm looking to field 3 squads of schutzen with 2 LMGs each. In attack or defence, the extra punch of the second LMG will be very handy!
I really do need to sort out a nicer photo shoot scene! :-D
I've a few more veterans on the go plus I may top up my regular squads to full strength (i.e. 10 men) then I can move on to supports such as the 81mm mortar and perhaps a light howitzer, then it'll be the vehicles: trucks and AFVs. So it's all coming along quite nicely.

Great painting and basing Matt. The team behind the wall is my favorite.
Two LMG's per team is a lot of dice, no wonder they called it the buzz saw.
Cheers,
Pat.
Coming along quite nicely indeed.
You will need three hands for the dice Matt. Nice work.
Hey chaps! Thanks for the kind words :o)
