played in a scale smaller than 25mm. I've just seen some of the new
Heavy
Gear infantry figures by RAFM, and they would make a good substitution.
The scale is 1/87 (nominally HO). So far there are 4 packs available:
northern infantry, northern support, southern infantry and southern
support.
The infantry packs come with 20 figures. The figures are carrying small
arms
(assault rifles or the like), but there are a number of alternate
weapons
that come with them. The support infantry appear to be heavier armed
and
armoured. You could intersperse them with the regular infantry or use
them
as a second infantry type. I particularly like the look of one of the
packs,
where the infantry are wearing long greatcoats over their armour. >>
