Title: Nuevo Rico and San Theodora (Modern after action report)
Post by: Mac on 09 January 2012, 02:52:50 AM
This battle was played using the excellent Combat Cards system, with a couple of house rules.

It involved a skirmish between two South American States, Nuevo Rico and San Theodora; both made famous by the inter-war period by the boy-reporter Tin-Tin. F This battle actually takes place around the year 2018 when both states have squandered their people's resources on equipment that the USA can no longer afford to store.

Details...

The APCs, the helicopters and most of the figures are from "lets dump them below cost sale" KMart had in Australia. Who knew!

The Bradley's and Humvees are Dragon

The Tanks came from a friend and I am not sure who made them.

All are 1:72 scale.

The terrain squares are linoleum tiles from Bunnings.

i picked up allot of those too , although misp[laced them now

Bravo Team featured on the packaging and they did a fair mix of action figures stuff all in different scales , everything from action figures to 15mm vehicles , the ones pictured above were some of the better sets along with 15mm Bradleys for $2 each ( a bargain if you play 15mm Moderns )

cheers Tom
