Libyan ingenuity
« on: 24 September 2011, 05:49:31 PM »
Hi to all,

The events in Libya are dramatic to say the least. However, they can provide some inspiration to us gamers. Here's a link to a photo gallery that could be of real use to some:

I don't mean to be insensitive to the suffering of the Libyan people or to the gravity of the situation, but the pictures (and the vehicles) are too cool to ignore.

Yours truly,

Sir Dryden

Excellent stuff, Sir Dryden, and yet more proof that Brent of Company B needs to add a Toyota 1/2 ton pickup to his 1/56 civilian vehicles list!

A treasure trove of photos for AK47 Republic players. I wonder where I can snag some 15mm Hind-D rocket pods to put on the back of a Toyota :P
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.
