that would be cool.  simple to produce too...

the existing NAC mortar itself would be just fine.

I could see buying 3 mortar sets, though I don't see the need for an
observer figure.  If we could produce a mortar set by just having 2 mods
of
existing figures (as Chris suggested) and including the *existing* NAC
mortar, that would be excellent.  And then we're only looking at 2 new
figures... (for that set).

This would be good also - depending on what weapons are actually
produced.
I converted my own GMS-armed models, and the shoulder-fired IAVR figure
would make for a *simple* GMS figure (simple in terms of converting an
existing model).  

What other heavy weapons are being considered?

I have to admit, I'm not much interested in prone riflemen per se - I'd
like to get my hands on a prone sniper or two (and would buy a set of 4
figures if that was how to get snipers) but all the rest of my Gurkhas
are
"up and moving" and I don't really want to add prone figures to the
existing sections.

Frits - for those of us who managed to NOT bookmark, it would be helpful
if
you reposted the website URL...  thanks!
