It's okay, you don't need to buy an OpFor, we're both in Melbourne. I'll get the Brazilians and you can get the Paraguayans... or the Argentinians...
Despite my daughter having an Argentine godmother, I shall be largely eschewing an Argentine force. One tries not to encourage them.
Actually, I was thinking of using the plastic Union infantry for a battalion of Argentine infantry in tropical kit. I only need a battalion’s worth for late war.
I’m a little surprised they didn’t go with gaucho styled cavalry first off, no doubt they are in the pipeline. Of course one doesn’t really wish to encourage gauchos either, they usually vote the wrong way. I’ll be truly fucked by the time they get around to the Voluntarios da Patria.
What are you basing yours for? I’m thinking singly and then using sabots so I can switch between Sharpe Practice and Volley & Bayonet at the other end of the scale.
By the by, two bits of news. I have convinced Nic at Eureka to cast up some more of the 68 pdr gun barrels so I can do Curupaty and I have been in contact with Nuno of Kingscarbine and his figures will be available again later this month.
