History and wargaming

I've managed to finish up another US piece, a Forward HQ unit used in Battlegroup, or some kind of senior command for other wargame rules. They're all 15mm Peter Pig, well fed and nice little pieces to paint up.

I've finished the last of the current batch of vc figures, very much a bits and pieces set. I Will have to go back and finish up a few more SKS and bolt action riflemen, but for now I have a few of each type of gun that can come into play early-ish. Next up is terrain, civilians and the US second squad. But we'll see how quick I can work through that, as of course we go into summer vacation mode, which entails... going outside...  

Time for a few new more VC models, mainly freedom fighters with smg's. I haven't really found proper VC's with smgs in 15mm, so I had to improvise a bit. The lad with the slightly oversized mp40 is a Peter Pig vc sapper, the rest are actually from the PP Montagnard range. The guy to the far right is a VC NCO model, but he'll work double shifts as an infiltrator with pistol when I'll need him to.

After a few productive nights I've managed to finish the second fireteam of 1st squad, the Plt leader and staff Sergeant, as well as a second M60 mg team. The second fireteam from left: M16 rifleman, Rifleman with LAW, M79 grenadier, team leader From left: Ammo bearer, m60 gunner, Plt Sgt, RTO, Plt Leader
