Minor WW1 powers
Anyone have good links to see the uniforms of some of the minor WW1 powers? I would like to finish my WW1 in Europe scenerio and I find the new units fairline has made fantastic, but I also would like to have Serbian, Bulgarian, Belgian and Rumanian forces, but the only such units I have seen come from Alex, which is a very different style.

I have some Osprey plates of Balkan armies. Are you making them or have you made Fairline an offer he can't refuse?
If you want some scans, PM me your email and a detailed list.

Excellent work as always!
Thanks so much.

Army Uniforms of WW1 - Mollo/Turner ?
The 'gas masks' the entente first used were basically chamical-soaked hoods as well. Just about better than being gassed I suppose.

Does the book explain why the mask appears to have oversized flaps for the soldiers ears? Did they double as elephant gas masks or something?

That's incredibly foul smelling. These armies weren't the richest, and uniforms were often augmented by civilian gear.
