Standard User Posts: 428 njt236 11th May 2017 01:26:35 I know I've asked this before but can't for the life of me find the answer anywhere. And that is, what figures make up the WWI command strips. Are there 2 Officers and 2 NCO's? Why I ask is that will 1 command strip give me 1 Off 1 NCO for 2 bases. Or is there a third figure, namely Baldrick. In which case I'll need 1 command strip per base. Can anyone suggest a good colour for the BEF uniform as well please Now to continue Baldrick's poem Boom boom boom. Boom boom boom, Boom boom boom.

Standard User Posts: 183 pushing.tin 12th May 2017 08:28:24 and I don't have them in front of me, but yes I believe it is 2 officers and 2 ncos |

Standard User Posts: 428 njt236 15th May 2017 04:04:31 Thanks Peter. I was hoping for 2 Off, 2 NCO that way I could make up 2 bases each with 1 Off 1 NCO from the one command strip. Will have to rethink it through now. But thanks for clarifying it Have found a Vallejo equivelent to Coat d'Arms British Khaki. Vallejo Game Colour Heavy Khaki so will try them both out. Both are in the post Nigel Through the travail of the ages Midst the pomp and toil of war Have I fought and strove and perished Countless times upon this star. G S Patton |
