Alan, how much stock do you have left? Are any nationality sold out yet?
Sometimes. Some nationalities get fewer. Just because.So you get 10x of them?
Currently Russians are only available as Scratch & Dent. A few others are getting low. My die-cutter is not an essential service (though my printer is), so it may be a month or more before I can restock.Alan, how much stock do you have left? Are any nationality sold out yet?
Indeed. If you have the counters in stock for long enough then I will probably pick them up in bits and pieces over time. Buying the whole lot in one go is too much financial commitment.
I am liking those!
Just one thing: This tone of green for legionarios is only when wearing the tunic. If using only the shirt, the tone is a very pale green, of which the legionarios showed (and show) particular pride; and usually with sleeves rolled up. Only to add a little chrome...
They are Replaced by 2 HS, but they don't have a default 5 ELR. That's how I'm reading CH's explanation. And for non-CH scenarios that don't utilize that feature, just ignore.What is the status of the morale of these units? They may be underlined?
I was wondering about that, but thought I'd play it safe. I'll work on de-tunic-ing them over the next couple of days.Just one thing: This tone of green for legionarios is only when wearing the tunic.

I think they should put their tunics back on.Now that I know that La Legión were manly men, with muscular muscles that they would flexibly flex while murmuring "hasta la vista, baby" before offing their opponents...

They don't look particularly muscular to me. Maybe 1930s rations were not as good as those of today.

Looks like white shoes in combat were a thing.
I don't think so. The shirt was a distinctive mark of la Legión, always so avid of accumulate distinctive tracts to foment their esprit de corps. The regular army was more strict about uniformity and so the tunic was mandatory, unless a) weren't enough uniforms to equip all the personnel or, b) the heat was so appalling as to result an inconvenient clothing. Of course, the more "regular" was the army, more uniformed was. I am speaking of the nacionales, of course. The Republican or Loyal army was more eclectic about uniforms, until was put in order about 1937, if I'm not wrong. But even so was equipped with all that could be found, giving a bit of an impression of patchwork.Looks like white shoes in combat were a thing.
Should I also "defrock" the Army guys?
