I'll soon start a separate thread that will begin introducing the story/factions.

Whiskey, I am working on barricades and street furniture etc so don't worry about those. I also have some civvie vehicles including a rather nice petrol tanker. I forgot to mention, I have a building that would make a rather splendid embassy.

Hotel out.

I have a few buildings which would work for the less posh parts of town and probably other bits and pieces which would work. Is there anything in particular which is needed?

I have a few sandbag emplacements, one actually has realistically sized sandbags rather than massive mealie sacks that would need two people to lift each one.

Slightly off topic I have found 5 diecast Humvees while looking for my M113s. I know they're slightly out of the time period and they are a tad big at about 1:45 scale but I can bring them along if anyone wants them.

They are out of period and a bit too big, oh my god Buff what are you thinking of?

Yeah mate, bring along I am sure we can use 'em wisely.

We can always introduce random move distances for vehicles, all mine have pull back friction motors

Maybe we can race them down the middle of the C18th table whilst they're having their artillery duel!

You can keep Andy company as he marches along the table.

I’ve got some sandbag emplacement and bunker-type thingies, and a modest mosque-type building with a walled yard that I can never put together without having a bit of wall left over.
It’s good. We should use it, but somebody else should put it together.

Also how come all these honky mofo’s got APC’s ‘n shit?

Comrade General Phillipe Foutanga Babani Sissiko N’Dahwehlahweh is busy welding bits onto that Toyota pick-up he’d given up on.

The revolution might be motorized.

Don't diss the ute. Plenty of space for firepower...




and personnel...

I could have used the first two for dealing with Oxfam and the green terrorists in Peru. The last one looks like a field crew coming home at the end of a day's work in Iran, we used to use Afghan refugees because Iranians won't work that hard.

Mind you that hi lux is low on the back springs.
