As with most of the other World War Two forces, these were mostly acquired over a decade ago... UNLIKE most of the other World War Two forces, I did not get a lot of the painted at the time! I think this was mostly because I got stuck on how to paint them!? Early blitzkrieg or Operation Sealion - with Luftwaffe blue uniforms and plain green jumpsuits? Tan uniforms with camo jumpsuits for Operation Mercury or North Africa/Sicily/Italy!? Or feldgrau uniforms with camo jumpsuits for later war in Northern Europe...
I have settled on tan uniforms with camouflage jumpsuits for use in the Mediterranean - from North Africa to Sicily and even defending mainland Italy!
Here's what I've got so far!
so far, I have a small force of 738 points... It could look like:
Fallshirmjäger Rifle Platoon
Fallshirmjäger Platoon Command (Veteran) +2 men, +1 SMG, +1 assault rifle, + Stubborn = 78 pts
Fallshirmjäger Medic (Veteran) + Stubborn = 31 points
Fallshirmjäger Light Mortar Team (Veteran) + Stubborn = 40 pts
Fallshirmjäger Forward Observation Team (Veteran) +2 men, +SMG, + Stubborn = 125
Fallshirmjäger Squad (Veteran) +5 men, +3x SMG, +1x LMG = 167 pts
Fallshirmjäger Squad (Veteran) +1x SMG, +1x LMG = 89 pts
Fallshirmjäger Weapons Platoon
Fallshirmjäger Weapons Platoon Command (Veteran) +2 men, +2 SMG, +1 assault rifle + Stubborn = 82 pts
Fallshirmjäger Medium Mortar Team (Veteran) + Stubborn = 60 pts
Fallshirmjäger Medium Machine-Gun Team(Veteran) + Stubborn = 66 pts
Enough for a small game! I could give anti-tank grenades to the two Fallshirmjäger Squads for another 30 points...?
All the minis I have - painted and still-to-be-painted...
When these are all painted, I'll have:
Fallshirmjäger Rifle Platoon
Fallshirmjäger Platoon Command (Veteran) +2 men, +1 SMG, +1 assault rifle, + Stubborn = 78 pts
Fallshirmjäger Medic (Veteran) + Stubborn = 31 points
Fallshirmjäger Light Mortar Team (Veteran) + Stubborn = 40 pts
Fallshirmjäger Forward Observation Team (Veteran) +2 men, +SMG, + Stubborn = 125
Fallshirmjäger Squad (Veteran) +5 men, +2x SMG, +2x LMG = 178 pts
Fallshirmjäger Squad (Veteran) +5 men, +2x SMG, +2x LMG = 178 pts
Fallshirmjäger Squad (Veteran) +5 men, +2x SMG, +2x LMG = 178 pts
Fallshirmpionier Platoon
Fallshirmpionier Platoon Command (Veteran) +1 man, +1 SMG, +1 assault rifle, + Stubborn = 64 pts
Fallshirmpionier Squad (Veteran) +2 men, +1x SMG, +1x LMG = 124 pts
Fallshirmpionier Squad (Veteran) +2 men, +1x SMG = 109 pts
Fallshirmjäger Weapons Platoon
Fallshirmjäger Weapons Platoon Command (Veteran) +2 men, +2 SMG, +1 assault rifle + Stubborn = 82 pts
Fallshirmjäger Medium Mortar Team (Veteran) +SMG, +LMG + Stubborn = 60 pts
Fallshirmjäger Medium Machine-Gun Team(Veteran) + Stubborn = 66 pts
Total: 1314 points!?
(I also have a few things en route, which will add another 235 points! Panzerschrek Team, Sniper Team, and two more pioneers with a Flame-thrower!)
STILL TO GET?
Looking at the points for the stuff above... I don't really NEED ANYTHING at this point... but I would LIKE a few other things?!
Some riflemen to swap out a few of the assault rifles for earlier war options... or maybe just some troops with submachine-guns? And... maybe a few more of the FG-43 Assault rifles for Later War options!
A proper command team for the Pioneers, and a few more pioneers.
A COMPANY command team?
Also a command team for an artillery platoon and a LG40 75mm Recoilless gun and/or a sPzB-41 anti-tank gun...
Maybe some Stugs or other assault guns...?
But considering I already HAVE over 1500 points... and the majority of them aren't even painted... I think these are all a long way off...
