Hi, I'm getting the Band of Brothers starter set for Christmas and wanted to line up the next purchases to order / buy in the sales.

What would you suggest I look for?

Thanks,

Furgie

A box of plastic infantry for the Germans.
The US airborne plastic infantry set
Build the hanomag without the gun, use it with the MG only.
Get a Pz IV tank
Get a Stuart V

A US tank destroyer. Better two.
A German Tiger and more German panzergrenadiers. And a German 88, ideal.
Mortars.
That way you have a German blocking position which can double as an attacking force (minus mortars and 88) and a US para recon force.

Mortars, machine guns, TDs, tanks.

Regardless of which nation you go for I'd say get the respective army book, more infantry and then some support weapons. Tanks soak up a lot of points that could be used on a howitzer, a moartar and machine gun teams.

Four German 105's and a lot of trenches.
