Dust, Tears & Dice: Seven Days to the Rhine

Seven Days to the Rhine - North Korean Formations..

Not a bad turn around in 24 Hours I am going to call these done.

The Infantry look far more functional on the larger bases and the added flock gives them some depth that was missing before on the smaller 2cm square bases.

I am not sure to upgrade the vehicles to the FOW bases but lets see how much game time they get in their new formations first.

Having dug out some formation stats for a North Korean Infantry and Armour Brigades for around the mid 1980's and adding a couple of tweaks to fit what I have this should give me largely enough to represent the major formations in the Red Phoenix novel.

Given the point requirements for Seven Days to the Rhine Rules, I thought I would save myself some time by pointing them up and documenting the various units here on the blog.

There are a couple of stats and points missing for the less mechanised units but it's a start.

As usual I am now looking at a couple of extra purchases to flesh out some of the units but am pretty pleased with this weekends efforts.
