Netflix: The Liberators - WWII Small Unit Action (US GIs in Italy)

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZaIZgkCcXQ


Saw the first episode and I am already hooked (although I had an issue how they knocked out one Panzer III in particular). Also have the "urge" to start making and painting 28mm American GIs for a "Chain of Command" platoon - which cannot be a bad thing, can it? (I do already have them unmade, unpainted and feeling unloved in various Warlord Games boxes).

Footnote: Really impressed with this mini series .. it soon became a story rather than a procession of kit .. the trauma (and story) came through very well.

Yeah I really liked it too.

I too am trying to work out how I can use any wargames rules - ever - to take out that PzIII with a dodgy 60mm mortar LOL

Nice to know that I was not alone in thinking "that is not a viable anti-tank weapon!"

;)

On to episode II
