Grandes-When You Want to Open with a Bang

Advancing in the lead of a night attack, these Chinese grenadiers will soften up the UN lines for the main assault.

In a tactic as old as the "Great War," brave soldiers loaded down with hand grenades would proceed the main infantry attack for the same reasons, disrupt the defenders, cause as many casualties as possible and have the survivors hunker down. Needless to say, the casualties among the grenadiers were extremely high. 

These are plastic pieces I put together and painted in March of 2020.
