Hi, I have just noticed through the online wargame store Wayland Games that Forged in Battle has released some heavy support units in the form of HMG's, mortars and light AT guns for the German paratroopers. They will probably need tham if they are going to be dropped above the Cretan country side. As some may now Forged in battle provides a great alternative for 15mm World war two miniatures besides Flames of War. Enough talking here are some pictures of the miniatures kindly borrowed from the wayland Games site in return I decided to share a link to this great wargame store.
O cute they have a pupchen, seems like a puppet but no it's a small portable At gun designed for the German paratroopers to provide them with adequate anti tank weaponry.

Are they cheaper than FOW?
Apparently "Pupchen" is actually "dolly". As in "what little girls play with".
Hi Arquinsiel, that's probably the right translation! I have modified the post.
@Angry lurker: They seem to be cheaper than the Flames of War miniatures when using Wayland games pre order price but Flames of War doesn't seem to make the paratrooper light AT guns what's quite strange. But note that the Forged in Battle heavy weapon packs don't include a command base with officers. But they seem a good alternative a Machine gun platoon (late) seems to cost £7.50 from Flames of War and only £5.18 at wayland games but as said they don't include three command figures.
Best regards
