Just out of interest did anyone notice the unit the blaggers are doing for their (actually becoming quite good) SS impressions...

Its 16th SS

Mainly occupation troops with a horrific record for killing civilians including hundreds of women and children and not a lot of combat time....

cant see myself writing that lot into a scenario any time soon :(

Nothing to kick up a fuss about I was just wondering what folks opinions were given the thin ice of portraying ss units?

I'm not greatly fussed - brutality to fellow man is wrong whichever way you look at it. Hard to see how 'more brutal' is 'more wrong' or indeed 'less brutal' is OK.

IMHO it doesn't pay to over analyse this, they are doing what they want to do. However, any politics brought into a game is obviously a no-no and one would question the motives of anyone who did.

As an aside, the Blaggers have a much stricter dress code as a group than the Hohenstaufen's and big boys kit too - there's a turn up...

Well, you can't miss them - tactics largely involve standing in the middle of the most open area of a site hoping an MP40 will out-range the Thompson or Enfield pointing back at them.

And running through the £150 worth of smoke they deploy into a hail of BBs.
