Crisis in Ukuechana. My modern warfare project.
« on: January 29, 2014, 11:08:01 PM »
Greeting everybody.

Ukuechana has been a work in progress for a while now, and i'd like to share what i have so far. I'll be doing two kinds of games in 28mm and 15mm. 15mm battles will be large scale, but with the 28mm i'm going to try and tell a story centered around a platoon of the Arkham national guard serving with the UN intervention force.

Here's a map of the country.


and some clippings from the Arkham advertiser about the crisis. I'll have more of these to come.



Hope everyone likes the idea. :)

I like all kinds of uchronic or fictional modern warfare ideas. It's something I'm also planning in the future. i'll start with "classic" assymetric french modern warfare, and next (when I'll have painted all the figs) I'll go for a fictional new contemporary european cold war-like history !

I'll follow your topics !

Greeting everybody. Finally had some free time to do a short skirmish in my imagine nation.

To the north of the city of Inor near the eastern border a US spy drone noticed activity around the  ruins of an old church. The nearest UN task force operatives a team of delta force where dispatched to investigate.

The view from the drone.

Rebel soldiers and PLA militia seem to be talking.

The delta boys split up to take them from both sides.

A snap of a broken twig alert the militia who spring to attack the Americans.

The rebel Ukuechana soldiers run for it.

The first militia falls.

The rest of the militia take cover behind the crates.

It doesn't do them much good.

The accurate fire from delta stops the militia in their tracks.

Delta regroups.

Something approaches

Delta moves to investigate.

Thankfully the familiar faces of British SBS appear before them.

The teams stop to investigate what they've found. The crates are stuffed with weapons and ammo. It looks like the PLA are smuggling weapons that they've bought from rouge army units into the city.


Well hope you guys like the pictures. Hopefully will have more soon.

Nice little AAR- I am not sure those rebels stood much of a chance.

Liking this a lot, perhaps some close ups of the minis as they look well painted.


Cheers,

"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

Latest troops to arrive in Ukuechana a fire team from another imagination of Imuoshana. Their president has sent the first regiment of Imuoshana rifles to join the intervention force. ( Manly because there where rumors they going to be involved in a coup.) They have Chinese equipment ( sadly only desert uniforms and have American vehicles.



Hope you guys like them

I wonder where you got the idea for them? ::)

So question, Is Arkham of Lovecraft or Batman fame?  :)
