PROJECTS
Iraq Project
STATUS: READY !!
The idea was to build a residential part of an Iraqi city (Fallujah, Baghdad, Basra, ...) next to a MSR (main supply route). The layout comprises 5 housing blocks, a policestation and a mosque. Later I will probably add a government building located behind the police station and with a lifesize statue of Saddam Hussein in front of it. The MSR has an overpass and there are of course plenty of palm trees to hide behind (thanks Gavin).
I want to be able to play many, many different scenarios on this table so I'm painting up not only insurgents but also Marines, Rangers, US Army, Iraqi Security Forces, Contractors and later perhaps British Army if I can find nice plastic British Infantry figures (haven't looked yet).

The rules that I will use are the excellent "Ambush Alley" rules, the figures are all plastic 1/72 from Italeri, Ceasar, Revell and Mars. The military vehicles are Dragon Armour, Forces of Valour and one plastic Italeri M113 that I have painted as a Medevac version. The civilian vehicles are from several brands, some were bought on eBay, others were kindly donated by Gunbird (thanks Johan)..
