Those trucks are fantastic, particularly the improvised armored one.

It's not improvised armour. It's a Lancia armoured trick, as used by the British army in the Irish troubles of the 1920s. I figure this obsolete vehicle had been loaned by the Army to the cadet force for use in exercises prior to the civil war starting. The cadets repainted and armed it when they declared for the Anglican League.

That is all well and good, Dave, and I heartily approve.

However, we need to get to the nitty-gritty of just where one can acquire one of these little armoured babies for oneself, dont we?

I've just finished ten 'men in tweed', who will be used as a generic 'country folk' section that could be aligned to AL or Royalists, as the need dictates. I really enjoyed painting these, most of which are from Woodbine.

Jolly good Dave. Those are nice figures. I've often looked at them myself, even though I have no earthly use for them  ::)

Great colours on the tweediness. There again, as you are a man in possession of some fine tweed waistcoats yourself, I would expect no less  ;)
