@ jurgen: Unfortunately not, so far. I don't know anyone local who plays. So I just collect and paint what I'm interested in.

@ Mike: That's very kind of you to say so. I do have the copy of your rules that you sent me, so when I do find an opponent you know which book I'll be using...

Thanks, guys, for your efforts! The usual reaction I get from new players after they play their first game is, "Hey...these would also be great for _________!" (fill in the blank for whatever somewhat modern period).

I'm in the middle of planning my convention game to take to next year's cons. I'm thinking it will be a clash between South African and UNITA troops against Angolan and Cuban forces during the counter-attack at Cuito Cuanavale.

Got some of the new Rhodesian MAP 4.5 vehicles from S&S models. Still PIP as waiting for some bits to arrive. Got three so far; one will be a standard army vehicle, one a Selous Scout variant with lots of guns and the other I chopped up to have a go at making a longer wheel based 7.5 version.

I have been following this thread with interest since the beginning and I promised myself I would stick to 28mm.... I was lying to myself of course this stuff is too amazing not to have a go at. This is just an amazing project, thank you for sharing.

I would like to know what rules you will use? I have just bought Spectre and have At Close Quarters by Chris Peers, also Black Ops. Force on Force seem to be out of print.

What would you chaps recommend and has anyone done an army list?

Thanks in advance, my army list is in progress and 28mm will be put to one side as I spend this summer amassing old kits and 20mm figures.

..Great job..John Wynne Hopkins will be jealous of the 7.5..came out well.

At the risk of inserting a crass advertisement, Wars of Insurgency provides games in which each player controls 3-5 squads. The squads range from a few figures to a dozen, or a single vehicle to several. Man-to-man scale. The rules are simple and easy to learn, but provide the flavor of a modern infantry firefight. Intended for those small scale actions in the hot spots around the globe from the 1950s to present.

Here's a link: http://www.firstcommandwargames.com/wars-of-insurgency.html

Feel free to ask questions about the rules if you're interested. By the way, some of Ash's excellently painted miniatures appear in the rules!
