British tanks the comet

Comet tank was one of the British tanks which utilized a 77 mm gun and was one of the late War issue tanks which was unable to prove its combat in the second world war but was able to serve into the Korean conflict alongside the Centurion tank

 the comets in this picture consists of one tank attached to the 11th Armored Division while the other two I am going to have for a post-war British division which can be used for manything from 1950 up to 1970 and possibly into the 80s as a reservist /  ta division

The Estonian war of independence 1918 to 1920

Within wargamers Illustrated issue 381 July 2019 there was an article consisting of the Estonian war of independence of which I have an interest in considering what if my former co-workers was in Estonian citizen the campaign should be relatively easy to work as I have first world war figures which can be used for either signed my Russian Force can be used with first world second world war Russians minus the fact that they're wearing helmets.

I have First World War Russians which I've been trying to build up, paint up and base. This is one of my ongoing projects which as of this update (2024) is 5 years after posting.

Normandy, June 9, 1944. British and Canadian attack on bridge

The British and Canadian units were extremely aggressive in their attack. The Germans were kept on the defensive the whole game.

the Luftwaffen Feldjagers were kept out and were eventually taken out by the 53rd Welsh Division 

3rd Anti-tank, Royal Canadian Artillery took out the Luftwaffe support tank.

7th and 8th Brigades Canadian 3rd Division advanced and hit the Germans hard

the Falsjagers had little chance to fight back

the Anti aircraft guns were another objective which was destroyed 

the Germans were using the farm as their outpost but were kept trying to stop the rush to the bridge 

the objective for both sides, British and Canadian units were to capture the bridge intact, the Germans needed it to counterattack, but with the might of the combined attack, the Germans withdrew
