Request:- Falklands 1982

[Leon]

Right then, I've printed off the lists of everything.  Like I said before, all our designers are tied up at the moment, but it does seem like there would be some interest in this range, so leave it with us and we'll see what we can do.

[Ryththa]

Fantatic!!! Many thanks for all the support for this request, I shall watch the forum and website for further updates should the project progress.

For what it is worth I will add another vote of support for the range. If you make I will buy - I am going through something of a South American phase.

You've already tempted Dave with the Chaco War!

The America's is something of an untapped goldmine for 20th Century wargaming so the more the merrier!

Id also be interested in gaming the falklands conflict in 10mm

Although I have a passing interest in the Falklands/Malvinas War, I do have a bigger interest in African Bush Wars - pop me down for another vote because I can always paint little dudes with berets, US helmets and FNs to represent other conflict zones...!

I'd be very interested in a Falklands range. Dont forget to add engineers (Hurrah for the CRE. lots of mine fields down there) to the list of codes, also at that time Brits had the furry hats (look a bit like russian hats) and all the lids would of been scrimed. They used .50 cal brownings for air def as well. The marines M&AW cadre used M16's, and the LMG was still in use by some army units (still had some of them in 87 ! not bad for a converted bren gun).

The lids were the old metal soup bowls for that with a nice pointy spike in the top. Lots of SLR's and 58 pattern webbing tho

Can I put in a vote for a Falklands war range too?

I'll put in a vote for the Falklands campaign as well - forces are not TO big and it could be a lot of fun. I remember a few years ago playing a game using 20mm figures we, Military Miniatures, produced. We even had sheep.

[Nosher]

"We even had sheep"

Not a Welsh guardsman by any chance

What do you call a sheep tied to lamp-post in Cardiff?

A leisure centre

We have the same jokes about sheep in New Zealand, exchange the Welsh for Taranakiites, South Islands, people from the country. Billy Connolly once described New Zealand as a land of 3 million people and 60 million sheep - a perverts paradise. He was wrong we have 4 million people

[weredoomed2003]

I'd really like a Falklands range.  No onedoes them in 10mm in the world at the moment and it wouldn't need to be a vast range - Inf, Marines/Paras, Argy conscripts and special forces.  A handful of vehicles, - LVTP 7, Panhard A/C, Scorpion and Scimitar + BV202 should do it. 

Please, please, please, please - although it'll bankrupt me as I'd was loads !!

many thanks

So are the designers all still tied up and having too much fun for their own good?

All I can say is Chinooks.

Expressing interest in British for and Argie bargie game.

One's busy with Naps and Schleswig Holstein, and the other is doing League of Augsburg, so pretty busy for both of them.  As I've said elsewhere though, what we're really lacking though is vehicle designers.  Only one at the moment, and he has a full-time business to run himself, so doesn't have a great deal of time to model stuff.
