Title: 6mm Modern Warsaw Pact Forces for 5Core Brigade Command
Post by: bigjackmac on 05 March 2015, 03:38:54 AM
All,

I've got two sets of identical Warsaw Pact-equipped forces ready to go for Brigade Command play-testing, one in green and one in khaki.  I've got so much more work to do with my 6mm toys, but I was able to focus and knock two forces out so that I can help take some of the play-testing pressure off of Jozi's Tin Man, who's done all the heavy lifting so far.  Actually, the two forces still aren't completely finished: I told myself I was going to put bushes on the all the bases, but I don't think I've got the strength.  But I still need to give them a matte spray.

The whole shebang, Warsaw Pact forces for the 'green' side and the 'khaki' side.  Each stand is a company, so each side has:
-three battalions of tanks
-three battalions of mechanized infantry
-a battalion of engineers
-a battalion of either Airborne or Naval Infantry (bear with me, I'm not picky so these stands will be which ever one I need for the scenario)
-two batteries of artillery
-two companies of self-propelled ATGMs
-and various Air Defense, Reconnaissance, and Infantry Heavy Weapons attachments.

I know that feeling,  there's something about army lists that makes me want to own every single variant  :'(

I hate the feeling of powerlessness and shame, the evil looks from my spouse, that occur when my discipline fails me ;)
