(COMMERCIAL) Empress Miniatures' NEW Vietnam Range

[carlos marighela]

That’s the one. Chinese copy with the three legged mount, with a traverse race, which seems to be the same mount that they used at times with individual 122mm rocket tubes. Two for the price of one, any old bit of suitably sized tubing would do for the rocket launcher.

The recoilless rifle itself would work for your Indo Chinese French, Viet Minh, ARVN and even your late WW2 US infantry as they first saw service in 1945 in Germany.

I support this, along with the French Union, Viet Minh and US late war......So I can use them for late war action and early Korean war...
Maybe a M20 in those ranges as well. 

[Paul @ Empress Miniatures]

In short yes, its already on the list.

It has huge amounts of usage and was pretty common from the end of WW2 to today. 

[carlos marighela]

Good man! Well good men, both of you. Want to add an updated crew for the Viet Minh mortar?

By the by any news on Aussie M113s?

[Paul @ Empress Miniatures]

Should be sorted by Christmas. 

[carlos marighela]

Thank you Santa. Please pass on my regards to the elves.

[commissarmoody]

Great to hear! 

[Paul @ Empress Miniatures]

Thank you Santa. Please pass on my regards to the elves.

Oh dear. Santa said you are in the naughty book so best be good for the next few months 

[Pijlie]

If it is that time of the year to write letters to Santa, I would like him to know that my Vietnamese village is almost finished and needs to be populated.....

Have your Elves finished the civilians yet?.

Santa has been at the sherry again. Actually, given the amount of dosh I’ve put the way of his local distributor, he’s probably moved on to aged single malts. 

[commissarmoody]

Santa can drink all the sherry and eat all the pork pies in the world. As long as he brings the packages.

WOOHOO!!!!!

One for the clever gang. Which way does this plate go when layed for lets say a helicopter landing pad, A or B?

[Pijlie]

Based on some pictures I found I'd say A.

[carlos marighela]

The answer might depend on which side of the Mexican border you are standing on. 

Never throw anything away I suppose.

[carlos marighela]

Real answer?

I would also plump for A. The raised bits look like the panel end connectors and based on photos and how PSP, the predecessor to aluminium matting worked, they would be ground side.

Presuming this has been installed/restored correctly...
