I haven't put a brush to any of these yet, I've barely had time to take the photos!
I'll be using two main codes for the British infantry sections:
- M5 - British Infantry
- M14 - Royal Marines
These consist of seven strips, each one an eight-man section as above. There are a 4 patrolling figures, one figure patrolling with a GPMG, a section commander and two figures crouching, one with a Carl Gustav or similar. All wear scrimmed helmets and webbing. One of the patrolling figures has a pack or section radio. All in all, these are good figures, although some of the barrels are a bit droopy at the moment.
Next up is the M14 - Royal Marines. As Andy from H&R described them to me in an email, these are your classic yomping/tabbing pose. Ten heavily laden infantry wearing berets, per strip, five (5) strips per code. Again, one figure has the GPMG and another is crouching with a Carl Gustav.
The figures look like they will be equally at home with green berets for the commandos or maroon for the paras.
My plan is to use a mix of the M5 and M14 figures (interspersed) to comprise my British companies.
Finally, a quick snap of the M14 - Royal Marines accompanied by the BM32 1/2 ton Land Rover and the BM33 3/4 ton Land Rover.
