Books and paints

A rarity. Text only.
I did send for the full size rule book collection which, as well as the large rule book, includes the 'Hobby' book (as suspected, very basic) and the 'Forces' book which gives points values and is therefore essential. Actually, all three useful though the 'Hobby' book is probably the least so.

I'd bought a package pf paints before that which comprised the basic Quartermasters Paint Set, German SS Paint Set, British Paint Set, US Paint Set, German Armour Paint Set and Soviet Paint Set. 42 pots of paint in all (many repeats) but damn it, not one of them is the correct colour for British tanks! British Armour or Russian Uniform has to be bought separately.

3 Shermans and a Firefly are made up but cannot take the field in black.
