It looks stunning! I still love that armoured car, and the proxy bits used for
the soldiers are excellent choices. One would almost think TLG had taken up
making soldiers!

You probably ought to call it "BrikWars 1944," or at least find a good reason
why/how a US military squad would be in occupied France two years before D-Day.
"Turned right instead of left at Kenosha, oh darn" or perhaps recasting it as a
commando operation, the sort of which did occur between '40 and '44? That last
would definitely make it a case of no support possible for the Allies, as well as
a great segue into why this skirmish happens here. Of course, this is all
desiderata, I'm just trying to feel valuable somehow. ;)

But the #1 cool thing has to be that hatchet attack. That's about the funniest
thing I've seen since Tom McDonald's Legopalooza. :) I also really do like the
way you do flame--2x2 dishes with a flame on top. Very useful tip to have!
