I agree.  Do your homework.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Last_Battle_(book)  Get a copy of Cornelius Ryan's book and read it.

Do you think dragons 6455 nordland in snow gear could be used for a diorama set in berlin or the break out? I could paint the white in camo because they wore reversable gear

Werent there alot of Waffen SS units in Berlin holding out as well? Or  could make it part of that "Relief Army" that was supposed to break the encirclement I believe the name of it is army group Wenck something to that extent at least? Or the 9th army or 12th army.

How about the battle for Berlin?  End of April until the first (actually second I think) of May?  You could have your scene in the outskirts of the city, in some no-name village or suburb....

I think both of your kits are appropriate for the fall of Berlin...

During the operation in march of 1945 was it snowing?  Or was it just cold. My dio idea for a bridge assault didn't fall thru so I am thinking of a dio in 1945 on the russian front.
