Welcome to a new weekly feature for the Hobbies Blog, Flames of War Fridays. Each week on Fridays I'll be bringing you a new hobby article focused on Flames of War, product reviews, unboxings, painting tutorials and more.

To kick things off lets take a look at the awesome Open Fire Starter Set. This set contains everything you need to get started in Flames of War including a 52 page Quick Start Guide and 296 page Rulebook

For the Allies the set includes 6 Sherman V's, 2 Sherman Fireflies and a US Parachute Rifle Platoon and for the Axis 3 Stug G Assault-guns, 2 Grenadier Platoons, 1 Anti-tank Gun Platoon and a Grenadierkompanie HQ.

Plus you also get a V1 Flying Bomb terrain piece and some great cardboard objectives and terrain pieces and dice

Over the next few weeks I'll be assembling and painting up our Mighty Ape Open Fire set and documenting my progress as well as the products and techniques I'm using, so stay tuned!
