How many SAS in a squad?

Well, while my LGS does have a few boxes on the shelves, I pre-order almost all my minis, so they woulda got them in anyway.

Still waiting on my pre-order of both Wave 1 and Wave 2! :?

Ack, that's harsh man. I've been champing at the bit for my wave 2 stuff - To FINALLY be able to play a 1k MEA army!

Old Soldier, give Mongoose Alex a PM with your store's Name, Number, and a person to talk to.

I'd love it if the MEA box had 10 men, especially if there was a second RPG in there (Guess who bought is 6th box of MEA infantry last night)

i to also own 6 boxes of MEA and by god its a wonder to behold, and still doesnt hit 1k lol.

i also got 3 boxes of fedyeen

now just a few boxes of technicals when they get in and im sailing, my mea are gonna be totaly non govermental.

Been there, done that....

If I don't get the models by the end of this month, I'm going to attempt to cancel all my pre-orders and order directly through MP, even though I will lose my discount doing so.

To me that sounds like 10. Squad of 8 with 2 extra SOLDIERS(not swappable weapons or anything like that)...

I recon you could read it to say anything you wanted to... but if you read the card that Hiromoon has produced it says on there that either or both gunners can be replaced with snipers.

Yes but if there's no extra models how you do that in PRACTISE?-)

I doubt they have managed to invent swappable weapons for the pre-painted models.

I never said anything about swappable weapons. Just that as the squad is 8 men to of whom can have either the MG or the sniper rifle (and figures are included to have both options).

Since standard SAS operating procedures work on the basis of a four man team, 8 men makes more sense than 10.

They come with three color coded clips, Shadow.

Red - Armor Piercing
Blue - Depleted Uranium
Green - Kryptonite, just in case Superman goes Rouge again.

Shouldn't they just use Batman instead? He's kicked superman several times :lol:

All the marines would need to fulfill all options would be an additional MG. I totally agree with Paladin that having all 10 men in the SAS squad is brilliant. No need for additional purchases to max them out.

I kind of now have 9 MEA squads (6 full squads) and even they don't break 1k. Add my 2 squads of fedayeen and my 2 boxes of technicals and suddenly they're up to 1.5K. I ordered another 2 boxes of feds and technicals to try and complete the "militia" feel of the army. But it's going to need some singles too.

Which brings me back to the fact that I'm glad the SAS has all options available in the one box well done MGP. Now please bring out individual warrior models.

Kryptonite, just in case Superman goes Rouge again.

Wow...superman in drag....I don't know if that would require full on kryptonite shells.

Now, if he went rogue...that would be a different story altogether.

Ahh, you beat me to it. I was wondering what Superman would be doing in PINK! Those must have been his adolescent, experimental years...
