The TwoFatLardies D-Day Airborne Games day in 2008 (God, was it really that long ago?!) provided an excuse to buy a British parachute force. Unlike my German Fallschirmjaeger, I painted all these myself: driving myself almost barmy trying to get them all done in time for the event! As it happens, they took the field without their MMGs but, I'm pleased to say, did themselves proud!
Here is the Air Landing company: not intended to be dropped out of aeroplanes, but designed to be landed by gliders or transport aircraft. That means that the company actually has some heavy weapons support and, if you want to be slightly cheese-y, some light tanks as well. This is a well-equipped light company whose elite nature makes them a very formidable force either on the attack or in defence.
