The models depict two soldiers of the Feldgendarmerie who have intercepted a suspected deserter, who has been executed bearing a label indicating his crimes.
Then this group is designed purely to cheese off any American players, as it depicts a couple of GIs, one wounded, being herded into captivity, having surrendered. They are depicted walking with arms raised or hands on head, being shown where to go by an SMG armed NCO. An officer in camo trousers and field grey jacket follows and the group is watched by an enlisted man in field grey who appears to be holding a bottle.
I figure this last group will act as a psychological blow to my US opponents, as well as a triumphal marker to employ when his battlegroup breaks or if any of his units surrender during the game.
I also have a pack of the Pegasus Germans in Berlin, which includes a potential Hitler figure patting a very young Hitler Youth soldier on the shoulder, which I think would be good for Backs to Berlin. The TQD range also includes a Berlin Breakout group, which has a figure in rain coat with Chaplin moustache and an armed female secretary, also a good candidate for Backs to Berlin. Perhaps the medal awards if the Germans get additional BR or the breakout party if they have to take extra chits.
Thanks for looking.
Grim subjects but accurate. Should make fore interesting markers.

Interesting little vignetts. They will add a bit of character to the games table.
