Hi, there, Alex

Apologies for the threadomancy - can you give an update as to when these new sets are going to be available?

Cheers

Will

Looks like their website domain name has expired?
Not good as I'd like some too!

EDIT: messaged them on Facebook and error on website should be fixed by tomorrow.

Yearly painting challenges only show me how useless I am at painting...

Quick question does anyone have a modern Canadian platoon organization?

I am guessing 3 sections, each of 2 4-man fireteams. Each fireteam = 1 leader, 1 rifleman with assault rifles; 1 minime saw guy; 1 guy with GL / AR.

But here's an idea for Alex. If he can webdesign a little, pages with colour photos as a painting guide and a page of TO&E would really spice up the website.

In addition to the three 8 man sections you've got the HQ with Carl G and a C6 GPMG team plus the plt cmdr, plt NCO (a Warrant Officer, equal to a Staff Sgt I think) and I would think a signalled too.

huevans - There are some articles in the works :)

James is about right, depending on what role the infantry platoon is in. Unless things have changed since circa 2010-11, a full rifle section in a mechanized platoon is 7 dismounts, a crew commander, gunner, and driver staying with the vehicle. There will always be 2 LMG, 2 M203s, and the rest with C7/C8.  A light infantry section in my experience is 8 pers. HQ could just be a LT/CPT, Signaller, and Platoon Warrant officer, but there may be GPMGs/Carl G/Mortar as the situation dictates. On paper, the mech TO&E is:

HQ Section:
-  Pl Comd
-  Pl 2IC
-  LAV Sgt (or HQ Sect Comd if you will)
-  Wpns Det Comd (or HQ Sect 2IC if you will)
-  Driver
-  Gunner
-  Signaller
-  2 x Wpns Crew (for whatever you want to deploy)
-  Possible Medic

Rifle Sections x 3
-  10 troops as previously detailed

That explains my wondering how everyone fit in the LAVs!
My sections have been operating with one extra dismount too.
