March 31, 2026 by brennon

The Plastic Soldier Company are now taking orders for the Print on Demand version of La Haye du Puits for use with the 20mm scale World War II wargame, Battlegroup.

La Haye du Puits // Battlegroup

Inside this book, you'll find a breakdown of the six-day offensive by the US 79th Infantry Division as they moved on La Haye du Puits, Hill 121 and Montgarden Ridge. You'll follow them from the first day and the terrible conditions they fought in through to the armoured counter-attack from Gruppe Koenig and the arrival of the German reinforcements from 2nd SS Panzer Division. This all then climaxes in the house-to-house fighting within La Haye du Puits.

A full breakdown of the scenarios presented in the book is as follows...

Advance from Bolleville
Encounter at Varraville
Koenig’s Counter-Attack
Night on Hill 121
Defence of the Sunken Lane
Battle of the Railway Station
Assault on Montgarden
‘Das Reich’ Strike
Storming La Haye du Puits

The scenarios within the book are designed to be played on your average wargaming tables with forces that range from a few squads through to a couple of platoons per side. So, you've got lots of scope for different styles of World War II wargame to be played out.

La Haye du Puits - Contents // Battlegroup

This sounds like a fascinating flashpoint within World War II for you to focus on that feels like it delivers on everything. You have the man-to-man fighting between infantry as well as the addition of armoured combat for those who prefer their tanks. I like the idea of taking snapshots of the larger conflict and focusing in, especially from a collecting and painting point of view.

La Haye du Puits - Interior // Battlegroup

As with all of the Battlegroup books, it comes packed with information about the conflict alongside some great photography, both of the miniatures and the actual locations where the fighting took place. Maybe you'll be able to play out the battles as they happened, following the events to the letter? Perhaps you'll be able to change the fortunes of the Axis or the Allies this time around?

If you're looking to pick this up, La Haye du Puits will be shipped after Salute on 13th April, so you've not got too long to wait to get your hands on the softback physical book.

Does this seem like a moment from World War II that you'd be interested in playing out?
