Nice! The german invasion would be interesting as the armys look the same and speak (roughly) the same language. Bruderkrieg?

Thanks Patrick :D

On many aspects the Swiss equipment looks almost the same, however the two armies do not speak always the same language... some of the best Swiss mountain brigades were Italian and French speakers :mrgreen:

Looking great! I really like the Swiss stuff! Putting aside the difference in language, judging by the looks, a Swiss-German conflict would have been a very confusing affair! :shock:
