Afrika Korps is expensive :(

The eBay stores (HKKeith and Spearhead) are both actually pretty good, and best of all they are affordable.

A G3 actually looks much more like an MP44 believe it or not (look at the stocks, foregrip, and reciever) - they just dont have a curved magazine : \

That's a good idea. Anybody else down? I want to make sure there's interested if I create one.

On that note, I would be excited about being part of an allied unit. I have no idea what kind of monetary investment I'm looking at, but it might be fun to look into.

If you want to look right Matt, it's expensive.

Yeah, I might be interested in either the German thing or maybe airborne.

I'd go with a Swiss team, that way we can sit in the middle of all and Europe and be the only team not axis;

I have started some discussion within the 5RAC about forming a WWII unit. I will make sure to post what comes of it.
