Me-262 - Blood Red Skies

 Game changer in the Blood Red Skies, too fast for every opponent. Does it perform well in the dogfight? I could say a comment in a few days. The only thing I'd like to say is that it need a proper target: heavy Allied bomber. The launch of B-17 model seems to be crucial for the Blood dRed Skies game.

Schwalbe was my very first resin plane from Warlord. After rather difficult experiences with metal models I was rather skeptical, but now I have to say that the company have done good job. The cast is clean, the panel lines are clear and thin, so the final effect is satisfying. The only remark for Walord's plane sets is lack of model dedicated decals (only generic markings are added)

This model is unique also for another reason. Due to smooth transition of colours on the German camo I decided to paint Schwalbe with an airbrush and I have to say that I'm happy with an effect. For a painting I have used Hataka range colours, decals are from miscmini range. What do you think?

The cheapest tank on Earth

If you need something to support heavy bulks of infantry or cavalry but do not have many points, there is a solution for you: Renault FT17 light tank: 35pts for standard MMG configuration or 62pts for light anti tank gun turret version.

Of course there are some inconveniences connected with usage of this tank. In fact the vehicle is a bit slower than usual tank to be honest ... pitifully slow, but if you accept this, you will have perfect tank. Maybe ... almost perfect, because of one trick: "One man turret" which means morale test each time when shooting during Advance order. For more comfort I would suggest to buy a veteran crew (it is only 7pts more). I belive, this option is really good value for money.

I really like to play Renault FT17 as a support for my Poles. It gives me a lot of fun and let me spend saved points for even more infantry. And last but not least ... I have a real veteran tank in my army 😊
