As has been hinted at, there will be digging in for the Russians but I only have U.S. & Brit e-tools! Any suggestions?

we can lend you a german e-tool and carrier which could be a battlefield pickup. We will also have a few long handled engineers shovels pre-placed in your positions.

So don’t think I marched there for this reason – it could carry another name – but because there is a very important goal... this goal I wanted to take – and you know – we are very modest, we have it already."
Adolf Hitler, November 1942

It is on your perseverance, staunchness, fighting skill and readiness to discharge your duty to the country that the defeat of the German-fascist army and the liberation of the Soviet land from the Hitlerite invaders depend! We can and must clear the Soviet land of Hitlerite vermin."

Assuming my role doesn't involve much digging (digging? In the navy?? :rofl: ) I have 2 e-tools spare. One I assume Fremsley will be eagerly snapping up to join in the fun but the other is still free. It is a bit late war but it will pass.

I have quite a bit of spare kit both Soviet and German.
Uniforms and field gear.
To suit my portly frame uniforms are on the xl size, 48" chest, 38" waist, headwear 60/61.
Ask by pm if there is anything you need to finish off your kit and I'll see what I can do.

Ok chaps I have a uniform from Josh but will need an etool or 2 for the guys in my squad. Also would a Czech M40 helmet be an acceptable substitute for a Russian one. I only ask as I've seen one quit cheap and thought I may pick one up as I could also use it for the cold war stuff I do with Gunman.

Arrrrrrhhhhh responsibility :giggle:. Thanks for that. Will be most careful and will aim to use the longer handle spades I think Steiner mentioned for any heavier work etc. Thanks again Ian :good:

Hi, there are only German places left, so it'll have to be German. I can lend you some of the field kit: belt, buckle, breadbag, flask, gasmask tin, spade.

What size are you?



You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier
