Have a look at this fabulous 4Ground kit, the European Windmill! Windmills played a part in the Second World War, particularly in the Netherlands, as shelter for refugees as well as look-out posts for the Wermacht. Here a group of British Commandos aided by a Daimler MK1 armoured car use the windmill as a base of operations to launch their attack.
Some Resistance groups used the sails to send signals to warn the locals of impending Nazi raids and some were used by the Allied forces as radio outposts.
This is another great kit from 4Ground and probably the trickiest to build so far. Fortunately the full color step by step instructions help a lot. Refer to them often during the building process.
This multi-level kit can be used for snipers or spotters during your Bolt Action battles.
The roof cap can be spun around the building...
and does lift off.
The sails are mounted and spin on a magnet too.
It's a grand unique piece for any table top battleground!!
Have a Great Battle!!

Early War Polish Reinforcements from Crusader Miniatures
The Polish Army in 1939 needs all the help it can get to repel the German Blitzkrieg. Here we've added another Polish Infantry Section from Crusader Miniatures for our Bolt Action battles.
The twelve man rifle squad has extra punch with the addition of a BAR Automatic (LMG) squad in it. Backup also provided by an Ursus armored car
Packs are loaded out with everything an infantryman would need.
Crusader Miniatures came up with nice poses for the riflemen.Including the BAR squad
And the advancing sculpts are also very interesting. The detail for metal miniatures is pretty substantial.
If you need to get squads on the table fast, metal figures don't need assembly so are usually faster to complete.
