15mm Modern African Militia "The Northside Boyos"........

...from Peter Pig and Old Glory.

The pictures were taken for the AHPC 2015 for the numbers rather than the detail and then boxed up in storage until a man cave can be sorted!

This is a real rag tag force but quite heavily armed for anything other than a tank force (they will probably acquire tanks before long)........

  1. That's quite a troop. Dig the cars.
    Now, get that man cave in order!

  2. These are still fab. They will need all that weaponry to cope with the expected dodgy morale and firing huge amounts of ammo in random directions

  3. With how many figures you have I'm surprised you don't already have a man cave. These look great. It's a shame they'll be stuck in storage.

  15. A nice collection of Technicals. Have you been looking at some of the ones used in the "Arab Spring!"? Quite a surprising selection of weapons (some from aircraft) and armours. Worth a look if you have not.

    2. google search "libyan pickup" and you will get the idea. lots of Aircraft rocket pods in pickup trucks as well as every type of gun you can think of.

      Hope that helps.

  17. Great to see them 'en masse' - what a cracking force Fran. Those technical look like they could punch a hole through most things.

  19. I am starting a Insurgency force, just curious if you have been using MAtch box or Hot wheel cars?
    They are for Team Yankee but will be proxies for the Vietcong with house rules.For in game play.

  31. Splendid pack of ruffians, Fran! Still my favorite part of the AHPC was the bombing run of your modern 15!
