The British Army were late to adopting snipers in WW1, but quickly caught up with the creation of the Scouting, Observation and Sniping (SOS) Training Schools in 1916, With these schools and the development of teams - a sniper and a spotter - a British marksman could outgun his rival, operating ahead of the main thrust of an attack to eliminate enemy machine guns and observers.
This set contains two figures, including a sniper wearing a camouflage robe (the forerunner to a modern ghillie suit), alongside a spotter with a telescope and scrim hood.
Contains enough high-quality resin miniatures to make a WW1 British Sniper Team for 1918:
A shooter, with Lee Enfield Rifle (with optics)
A spotter, with glass
50mm scenic base-topper
These models are scaled for 28mm WW1 wargaming, and are perfect for taking out enemy officers in 1918: A First World War Miniatures Game.
