A Small Flames of War Update

Legio Malaysia has recently made it official that the Operation: Case Yellow campaign will start in September. In response to that announcement, this is what I had assembled as of this moment.


Those pictured above are approximately a third of my 1500pts list, which is as listed below:
  • HQ: 2 Panzer III
  • Platoon 1: 6 Panzer I B
  • Platoon 2: 3 Panzer III
  • Platoon 3: 4 Panzer I B + 1 Panzer II C
  • Platoon 4: 4 10.5cm IeFH18

Yes, you read it right. There'll be no secret to this project; it is a simple 16 tanks with 4 artillery guns Mittlere Panzerkompanie list. However, some of the other participants are considering to play 1750pts during the campaign. If that's the case, I may have to either add more Panzer III or a Luftwaffe AA artillery platoon. The 6-rad Recon halftracks actually came to my interest, but the cheapness in their points value doesn't go in line with the actual retail price, so I had to drop that plan. Putting that aside, I'm targetting August 24th for all those listed above to be fully painted.

Stay tune for more updates.

  1. Looking forward to seeing those painted up. And you're right, most of the players are setting up for 1750.

    1. 1750 it is then.
      The easy way out (painting & cost-wise) would be adding more Panzer III.
      But, let me see examine the Schutzen option first.

  3. Btw Iqbal, I've got two Panzer III E's which are assembled but unpainted that I'm looking to get rid off. (Decided to up my Panzer II strength after my first EW game) Let me know if you'd like to have them (Happy to unload them at Maelstrom price rounded down)Cheers!
