Too late. It's *very* specifically stated in the subscription message

That's as maybe. But the heraldry thread had moved too far away from
base
point -GZG games. I don't object to general discussions provided I can
see
a worthwhile path back to the use of a GZG product. I don't think
*anyone*
would argue that whether a dragon is a dragon or a wyvern is *in any
way*
related to GZG at all.

TBH, I think any SG/DS period trooper wearing anything other than
appropriate camoflague is dead meat very quickly on the battlefield. I
have
one set of SG figures painted dark green /brown camo and one using
shades
of grey urban/arctic camo. I doubt you would get any modern soldier to
wear
a red/blue uniform in combat even if you issued them.
