Cold War British
« on: January 29, 2013, 07:48:07 PM »
I finished up the last of the Cold War British I have (for the moment!) over the weekend. Here's what IU've got so far:



Regular infantry platoon. At some point I'd like to mechanize these lads with some FV-432s or Saxons... (and maybe a few more Carl G Teams)



Some support for the infantry: Milan, Mortar, Sniper and Forward observer team.



I also seem to have a few spare troops armed with SMGs - perhaps they can be dismounted drivers...?



Finally some special forces types - SAS or Royal Marine Arctic and Mountain Warfare Cadre...

Now to finish up some adversaries and get these guys into action!!

Those miniatures look the business. What maker/seller are they?

Cheers!

They are mostly Mongrel Miniatures with a few Gripping Beast Mofo figures thrown in.

This is some of the best DPM ive seen.  Also, great job on the face paint.  Very realistic looking.
