Title: Battleground 1983 3D figures
Post by: monk2002uk on 21 January 2023, 10:09:42 AM: Henry Turner is releasing more 3D files for his 15mm Battleground 1983 range. The Soviets are already available, including the recently released VDV figures. Here are some photos of BOAR and US Army figures as well, engaged in close quarters fighting with their Soviet counterparts. First up, a US anti-tank team with SMAW and Dragon, supported by a GPMG team:

Here they in action against a Soviet tank:

Not to be outdone, BOAR take on a BMP and infantry support with a Milan and 82mm recoiless rifle:

Yes, this scale is better suited for 3D!
