25mm.  Ground zero games stargrunt minis will do the job. Swedes for hoth and new Israel for spec force.

Good luck.

went and had a look at the Eureka site but no images of the New Israeli and Scandanavian Federation [I take it they would be the Swedes?]

any one got a link that can show me what they look like I don't need many maybe 10 SpecForce troops. Just to add some flavour to my games.

What else could be used with the WEG minis that would match and not look out of place.

I've been trying to get onto the Ground Zero Games site but it comes up with an error msg.

I'll go and try and find your older thread.

A couple of years ago, a friend of mine painted up some squads of the Scandinavians. Pics can be found here:

Decent figures, all in all, and quite suited for Hoth. I've got a platoon of NSL Jagers myself that have sat primered since Fiasco 2009. Really need to decide on a paint scheme and finish them up.

@Westfalia Chris: thx for the Pics When I get to the Hoth battles I may look at getting some of them.

@Commander Vyper: I think I found your thread but it was about Jedi and Clone troopers... or did you do one about Star Wars A New Hope, Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.

I've done a few ;)


That one gives a load of proxy options not just limited to episodes 1-3 (force users for example).

You'll find my weg thread if you sort future wars by view, it's quite high up.

I have always thought that Four A miniatures Snowtroopers would be great for use as Rebels.

I am a bit jealous of your WEG collection.

I am still trying to build mine up.

want to get some more Stormtroopers, and then get me some Rebels as well.

Not sure what else I want/need but I know its going to cost me an arm and a leg at least.
