\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I completed another tank battalion and a few attachments for Look, Sarge, No Charts: Near Future and Science Fiction<\/em>. \u00a0This battalion came from an ad hoc<\/em> hodgepodge of things. \u00a0The vehicle above is from a set of small Russian kits I found on Ebay. \u00a0They seem to make these kits in both 1:48 (I have some for Combat Patrol<\/a>) and 1:144 (for LSNC).<\/p>\n

You can see the battalion laid out in this picture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Most of the vehicles in this battalion began as Epic Warhammer 40k. \u00a0I then picked up a bunch of turrets from Iron Wind Metals at a convention and glued them to the Games Workshop hulls. \u00a0While it is clear how these vehicles began life, I think the effect is pretty good. \u00a0It will make a nice “irregular” force.<\/p>\n

The vehicles across the top of the pictures above and below are not Games Workshop. \u00a0I got them in a flea market at a convention. \u00a0They are for a science fiction game I hadn’t hear of before, and I don’t think they or the game are still available. \u00a0I wouldn’t mind a few more of them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Below are a few more of those Russian-made kits. \u00a0They provide a number of parts that are used to customize the vehicles.<\/p>\n

These Russian-made kits are not assigned to any of the tank battalions. \u00a0I intend to use them as attachments from higher headquarters to weight the main effort or help balance the game somewhat.<\/p>\n
