Yes I was wondering if anyone could tell me about Adler's 6mm WW2 contents and descriptions on the B1, British infantry pack which contains 108 figs, G3, German regular infantry which has 72 figs, and US1, The US platoons with 120 figs. What I am looking for is the number infantry advancing, infantry standing and firing. Not really interested in prone infantry firing. Also, which ally would be better, British or Americans. Thank you in advance.

I do not know if Adler makes prone figures, but if you contact them and request standing kneeling only I am sure they will oblige you. They give very good service and communicate with their customers well.

Hi Jandretti, all the figures I got in the British pack B1 were standing, with a couple of figures kneeling firing. There was about 4 officer figures with pistols, 3 or 4 strips of 4 figures with SMG's, all the rest were riflemen, some firing the majority advancing in at least 3 different poses. The officer figures may have been on the SMG strips.
The only prone firing figures are about half of the LMG crews, half the PIAT crews, half the 2" mortar crews and there are some prone figures in the Engineer pack.
I do not have any of the US or German packs, but the German paratroops was similar to the British in the make up of the packs, so I presume the other German infantry and US infantry packs are similar.

The WW2 packs come off mixed pose moulds so we cant do a pack in a specific pose I'm afraid. Different packs cast at different times will have a different mix apart from the basic proportions of Officer/NCO to non coms. We rather assume that people would want their WW2 infantry varied in pose and largely moving. Not sure of the reason behind the question really and without knowing that difficult to help.
