Valen is my name Posted: Mon Jun 11, 2007 12:00 am Post subject: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i was nearly there with forward operating. Similar thing really. To quote that great philosopher, Maxwell Smart (Agent 86) : "Missed it by that much!" As...

Probably Forward Observer... for Arty and Tac Air & other Earthpounding Goodness!

Excellent work on the cards and stats, Chewie. I'd love for MP to do some Aussie guys, but failing that I might have to get some Eureka dudes.

BTW, I notice on your evocommand details that you are on the Central Coast... Are you OK after the storms & floods?

Yes, Australia is part of the Commonwealth... now. In ten years... who knows? If Britain goes down the Euro path (as she does seem determined to, at a governmental level), Aussies would be even less willing to take instructions from London, seeing as the REAL istructions would be coming from Brussel...

They went with THIS http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cougar_%28vehicle%29 thing? Interesting choice. Well, there goes my chance of a model!

If the Bushmaster's rock'n, don't bother knock'n!

Seriously, it's even getting a water chiller now!

I wanted 4 Warriors to mount my Mechanised Infantry Platoon up, so I bit the bullet, and bought them with the Command teams. Now, when I took out the Command team that I needed for my platoon, that left 9 figures. Take out the almost useless Radio Op's (which may later get used as tank crews...from ...

Just speaking for myself here, but I was perfectly happy with the initial Wave 1 dudes.... and I did wind up getting a signifigant number of boxes. They were soldiers that I could play with straight off, and didn't have to paint! My wife says that I am not a wargamer, I am a collector of unpainted m...

Hi all! Firstly, let me get my bias out of the way. I am Australian, and do think that we have some of the best trained and equipped Light Infantry in the world. Having got that out in the open, am I the only one would be interested in buying ADF guys and Bushmaster IMV's? http://en.wikipedia.org/wi...

I don't think anyone can claim "copyright issues". But was the conversion of the SST game into a Modern Small Unit Skirmish game inspired by large numbers of hours in front of a computer game? Probably. Are the factions similar? Some of them, but seeing the PLA as a major future combatant force, a c...

Hi Keshan!

Where in Oz are you?

I'd like to say that the local shops aren't far behind in the release schedule..... but they are!!! Good luck with the pre-ordering. As a bit of a guideline, a part that Mongoose sent out to me took about a week.

Actually, you're code-named Scarlet and fall under War Plan Red. And, I hate to tell you this, but you did the lap-dogging yourself. Hmmm, Hiromoon..... I am unsurprised that we rated a mention. Damned important country, we are.... way down here and all that. Why, we control the access to..... Ummm...

What about War Plan Blue, for the covert cultural invasion of Australia, and it's subsequent conversion into a lap-dog State..... Oh, wait, they did that one!

Hmmmm.... tried to download S&P45 Wargamer, and it wanted to charge me $3.00 for delivery from the wargaming online site..... is that right?

Hi all! I use a three dot marking on the rear rim of the base for my 'Regular Army' dudes (EFTF & PLA... the MEA have more flexable options, so I leave these unmarked.). First dot is Platoon, second is Squad/Section, third is Fireteam. I use Red, White & Blue as the colours, because EVERYBODY knows ...

I got a box of Brit Infantry that had a PLA Rifleman infiltrated into it, rather than a standing Brit Rifleman. The nice people at Mongoose had a replacement figure in my hands, IN AUSTRALIA within a week! Just email them : sales@mongoosepublishing.com , and they will fix it for you.... gotta love t...

Ok.... so they have to have a web address, before you can post? I may just be a little technologically challenged.........

Sorry, had a bit of a go, and can't work out how to make the pretty piccies appear.... a little help, anyone?[/img]

Sorry, I was unclear.... by "real" card, I just meant official stats, like the wave 1 in S&P... I'm not expecting them to print cards for us... they are nice guy's 'n all.... but no-one's that nice!

Had an awesome game last night, with an EFTF British force of 3 Challanger II and 3 Sections of infantry up against the PLA's 4 Sections of Infantry supported by 3 Type 99's. I was going to work out the points properly, but as we were in a hurry to set up and get going, I couldn't be arsed! The batt...
