Volkssturm vs Giant Beetle

 

I opened the window and found a dead beetle in the window frame.
It was huge and had big mandibles.
I had just finished trimming the new Mars Volkssturm figures off the sprue.
So naturally, I saw this as an opportunity to put them into combat right away.
The Zugführer closes with his MP-40, leading by example.
The armor of the bug was impressive, but under the weight of the Lewis gun and Panzerfaust he fell in battle.

  1. That's a good use for the Volkssturm - bug elimination. Was it their practice for going up against the Red "armoed bugs" (i.e., T-34s)?

  2. Fix the enemy in place with full automatic fire and then close with the panzerfaust.
    It was usually successful but so many bugs, so few panzerfaust.
    Thanks for reading Col.
