BKC in 6mm

You should get two for that , both sides with the trimmings

Early war or "rubbish heavy" armies might be more awkward but even so infantry are cheap

To kick off I want to do Eastern front 42 onwards.

What's rubbish heavy?

I went for 43 with my 6mm stuff...all Heroics and Ross both tanks and infantry... I havent touched them in about 15 years

"Rubbish Heavy" - full of very cheap troops.

Say, early Russians with lots of dire tanks, poor HQs, conscript infantry. The sort of thing that means you end up buying a dozen tanks models to your enemies three, yet still feel under gunned and out numbered

Makes life expensive in actual cash, cheap on points

Whereas the opposite extreme would be the veteran tank riders with all the trimmings riding ISU-152's and IS tanks, with beefed up HQs and some serious Sturmovik support. Gets expensive in points, but is cheap in models!

Mid war I find interesting - everyone's still trying to work out what they're doing, and the kit is between awful to good but nothing's very consistent yet

Thanks 

Yeah, I agree with you on mid-war.  It's also missing the uber units which can unbalance a game.
