"Hey rock and rollers! This is Foggy Fogarty on Radio Borset with the Five O'Clock Foggy Follies! That was Oliver's Army - a bit of Elvis Costello - from the boys of No.2 Section, B Company of the Wessex Rangers and dedicated to 'Delectable Debby' at Crow Farm. And this is a stomping song and a weather forecast all in one. It's Tom Robinson and it's going to be a 'Long Hot Summer'....."Matt at Elhiem has just announced the long awaited additions to his Cold War BAOR. This bumper summer release includes a skirmishing rifle group, firing GPMG group, platoon command, 'Charlie G'/LAW/Blowpipe launchers, sustained fire GPMG on tripod, 81mm mortar and observers.
BAOR skirmishing 'greens' from the Ambush Alley Forum
Perfect for debussing from one of Rolf's Saxon APCs
Worth noting that Elhiem is also looking to stock vehicles from S&S Models. I'm biased of course but I would like to see Shaun's BAOR AFVs and Land Rovers amongst the initial stock to compliment these latest 20mm 'Toms'. Maff bought one of the S&S Model's 109s to turn into a Free Taff 'Gun Jeep' and was favourably impressed.
I have to give credit to Matt in that he has released everything in one go, allowing you to buy a full 1970's/early 80's British force without leaving gaps or having to rely on substitutes. In addition, the packs themselves are wargamer and customer friendly making it a breeze to organise what packs you need to purchase to complete a tabletop force.
Looking forward to receiving my first platoon worth of these BAOR figures. I'm planning to pick up some of the support weapons after pay day.

Already ordered Squire, it really was a just take my money type situation.
ReplyDeleteThey're beautiful sculpts, aren't they? just waiting for him to do an L42 armed sniper with L42 and spotter now, and maybe even a set of vehicle crew...
ReplyDeleteSome additional NCOs would provide variation. A group of rushing riflemen would be good. AFV crew and as you say, vehicle crews.
