”Serious times demand community spirit, vigilance and silence”. Swedish WW2 era poster. #SwedishCoC
Will be doing some more Swedish 1943 stuff this year! Defending the Local Shop against the Cermans in the Village ”Någonstans”. #SwedishCoC
Time to give the station of the Village “Någonstans” for the What-if Swedish WW2 project some love. bought it off ebay for a tenner a few years ago, at 1/120 works for 15mm. Slow start and Happy to get rid of that coloured plastic look. #SwedishCoC
The Village Någonstans, Dalarna, Sweden during the 1943 Invasion! #swedishcoc
All this jungle makes me dream about the what-if Swedish 1943 stuff! #SwedishCoC
Its flying, finally based this beauty by @GrimmgothVlad - a metal disc and a telescopic aerial. This will be a great enhancement to the Swedish WW2 project. #SwedishCoC
I asked @GrimmgothVlad to help me with this Swedish Dive Bomber, Saab 17, for my #SwedishCoC project! Can’t wait to pick it up at Joy of Six. Lovely. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saab_17
Per Hilding Perjons (1911-1998)- an underrated master of capturing the timeless beauty of Dalarna, Sweden. With passion for colour as opposed to precision and detail. Passed on from Dad and my favourite memory of him and “home”. Very much the Dalarna of the #SwedishCoC project.
Happy Birthday Mike! Driving on the invasion route the 25th Panzer Division would have taken to Ludvika 1943 if Germany would have invaded Sweden. #SwedishCoC
Skans 211 in Särna, Dalarna, Sweden, built 1940-55. Close to the Norwegian border. Here but No further Adolf! #swedishCoC
Happy Birthday @Amaz_Ed! When I started my #SwedishCoC project I wanted to make it look as good as possible. Paul did roundpole fences, m/31 armoured cars and other small terrain features that now allow me to present battles that might have happened in Dalarna, Sweden, 1943.
Might be worth firing up the printer and make one of these for the #SwedishCoC project, Terrängbil (Tgb) m/39 – Tempo Vidal, used by the Swedish Army, link here cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/temp... And a video of it here...
House is empty, heading out for a walk might catch up with a mate depending on some events going the right way, back-up plan a long stop at a caff reading this book from May 1943, a few months before the #whatif German invasion of Sweden. #SwedishCoC Hårt means Hard. 1/2
1943 (Swedish Briefing on Norway) 5/6 "25th Panzer Division include a number of Tiger Tanks" and 15/6 "..tanks of Tiger and Panhter type has again been confirmed". 25/6 "The 25th Pz Div include Tiger & Panther Tanks, but the number is unknown" #SwedishCoC...
Double phase and two sections are moving in towards the farm. Staying well out of the Swedish line of sight - for now. #SwedishCoC #spreadthelard
German Panzergrenadiers is talking on @DarkinDes Swedish Platoon, I guess it will be another fire fight around the farm with the flag. #SwedishCoC #spreadthelard
Some dice for the #SwedishCoC stuff! Some printed labels on top of the sixes for the 25th Panzer Grenadiers, doing the Swedes next well when I get the Blue dice. Will it change the way the dice behaves? Yes. Will it be significant?, No.
Swedish 1940s mortar team, Anti-tank gunners taking a break and Machine Gunner also cooling down! #SwedishCoC
Germans are advancing, the Swedish sections are struggling against the fire power of Panzergrenadiers, but for every minute they can hold, the second line can prepare for the counter attack attack. Somewhere in Dalarna, Sweden 1943. #whatif1943 #SwedishCoC
Some quick Patrol markers (and JOPs) for the game between the Panzer Grenadiers of the 25th Panzer Division and a Swedish Platoon of the I13 Infantry Regiment. Using adhesive vinyl floor tiles #whatif1943 #SwedishCoC
The outskirts of the Village ”Någonstans” i Sverige Summer 1943. The German War machine has breached the border defences and are advancing through Dalarna, Sweden, all is quiet at the moment but the second line will do everything to stop them.. #SwedishCoC #whatif1943
Planning the table for a proper #SwedishCoC game against @DarkinDes this Friday! Will the defenders of the Village Någonstans in Sweden be able to hold back the German attack!? #whatif1943
Some more 1/72 decals on Swedish 1/100 tanks, the mighty m/42! #SwedishCoC Introduced in April 1943.
When life only throws you 1/72 decals you use them on your 15mm #SwedishCoC
After Salute we Roller of Ones will focus on the What-if Campaign of the German Invasion of Sweden 1943. We call it #SwedishCoC
