Welcome to the Flames Of War and Battlefront Miniatures website.

SS-Panzergrenadier Platoon

Next week we have another five new releases, including our first release of late war SS-Panzergrenadiers for Cobra, so we spotlight those this week. We have some tips on how to create a Flames Of War to suit your playing style or just to get your started.

Also added this week are five older History articles transferred over from the old site.

Sandy Addison sent me his excellent article on creating Flames Of War forces some time ago, but unfortunately I’d lost track of where I’d save it. Luckily Mike, here in the office, was able to track down a copy for me, so after much delay I’m finally able to present it.
