So, to recap, we have
1. Falklands era - British and Argentine.  Brits in beret and helmets....mostly in just '58 light order, but at least one with Bergus Roc and yomping
    The Brits could serve in most wars from 1967 to late 1980s

2. Cuban style troops with AK47- bit like Peter Pig Hardened militia

3.  106mm RCL

4. ARVN Types

5. PLA

6. some more Vietnam ships


7. AFVs....help me here guys !

I use the French Para Inf as Arven, as for moderns wish list I would like to see the IndoChina/Vietnam ranged finished of mainly with vehicles and guns such as an Australian Centurian without side skirts, a Pack 105 with Australian gun crew and landrovers. An NVA PT76. An American M48, Commando A/C and a Mutt jeep.

I've already thrown my two bob's worth in the ring with regard to Argies & Brits, but would like to second the motion of generic type figures that could be used in a wide range of conflicts e.g. African Bush Wars.

Sunray

yes - 1970s generic bush wars -  the British in 58 web FN/SLR  and e beret, Cuban types with AK47,
But Doug made a very good point - finish the Vietnam range first.

Quite a pun- but not as good as 'resistance is feudal' - On the subject of AVF names, there is a good PhD out there on the national trends that have emerged since tanks and armoured cars appeared.

The Germans have gone for big cats, the Brits initially for girls names and then...anything butch starting with a "C", the Yanks for Generals ...

but hey...keep the puns coming

As with the boats thread, I'll keep an eye on everything mentioned and see what comes up.

Unlike some people, I feel under no obligation to pretend that only one war-gaming scale is true, and that any others 6mm/10mm/15mm/25mm are mistaken; or that I know better than people themselves what is right for them to use. The point is precisely for all war-gamers to decide for themselves.

Generic infantry in various poses with a generic bullpup rifle in Helmet, Beret and Bush hat. Could in turn be used as Modern British, Modern French, Modern Australian/Irish, Modern Chinese and Modern Israeli, who all use a bullpup rifle as stanard weapon.

An odd little vehicle that I would like for a fairly odd reason:

I am thinking of an alt-history mid-to-late Czech army, and their own APC would be kind of neat.

Not that I expect many votes, but I might as well ask...

Despite Mr Lemmey's rudeness about the Centurion, I will support the sentiment.

Soviet infantry would be particularly useful.
