That is a very nice collection, and some beautifully executed little terrain pieces. The vehicles are top-notch too.

Very impressive - how did you do the headscarfs? Are they black then with white markings on afterwards?

yep! send you mad though - any dots that are too large have to be painted out or they ruin the feel of the pattern... i've done approx 90+

I can bet it did! All the more impressive for it though. That little detail really makes the figures jump out, I've seen others try and pull it off before, but I think this is the first time I've seen it pulled off well.

The only controversy* to my mind would be calling your modern Islamic fundamentalist forces "Black October." Obviously inspired by Black September, but Black September were most certainly not Islamic fundamentalists. That's a much more modern phenomenon. They were Palestinian nationalists whose outlook was left-wing and very secular (their parent organisation Fatah were materially supported by the USSR and China, and had links with such organisations as the Baader-Meinhof Group and others) .

But hey, it's only a game of toy soldiers, so it don't really matter, and it is a cool name (which is important).



*And not really a controversy at all, more of a technicality. 

[Calimero]

They look so good I almost forgot they were meant to play wargames… Now I wonder which rules are you using? 

[commissarmoody]

Oh pick me! I know I know! 

[MadMö]

I´m impressed.
I liked the road sign most.
