Swap the head for an AWI militia stocking cap, ad a backpack and play around with weapons and you have a non specific nationalist militia for Zona Alfa. The StG44 looks enough like an AK47 anyway, good enough to go on Kalashnikov's memorial at least.
There are photos of StG44's in use in Syria, so they're good to go as is.https://www.businessinsider.com/rebels- ... 016-3?IR=T

Well, that seems to be all the good stuff gone then. Any 1/300 Cruel Seas vessels? If so, can I claim them please?

Playing around with my sprue of the Boche looks to have worked. I dug out the old Wargames Factory zombie survivor weapons sprue for a multitude of bits including an RPG7.

I'll ask as I doubt he throws anything out!

I'll pass them on to LT as I think my show mojo has run out...too much of the same stuff and less and less of interest. I find myself only going to meet up with people and there must be better ways of doing that!

Thank you, gents - all Cruel Seas sprues gratefully received (they'll be used for the TFL variant - Coastal Patrol - so no need for rulebooks etc).
