Jungle PAtrol WiP

Inspired by making some jungle terrain, and a combination of reading Harry Harrison's Death World trilogy and a load of Osprey bookss on the ANZACs in Vientnam, WW2 Jungle Tactics etc, I decided to make an Imperial Guard patrol for a game set in a death world jungle.

These guys are modeled after 22SAS in Malaya, SASR and LRRP in Vietnam, that sort of thing. I intend to make up some bad guys too - maybe some Kroot. I've also sourced a bunch of Rogue Trader Space Slann, so some games against them would be fun.

I'll be doing a flamer-carrying trooper or two (for protection against carnivorous plants) a heavy bolter, a demo expert and a trooper carrying a motion sensor. After that, if I haven't got distracted by something else I'll make them a rhino, heavily modeled on an M113 ACAV and loaded up with supplies.
