Murica 405th: Combat/ Support Arms

     Today's post shall resume our daily posts on parts I intend to use for this project. Today's theme are the combat and support arms.

     Looks like Anvil Industry will love me or hate me. Take your pick. Anyway, these arms are designed mostly for Anvil Industry's own line of weapons but I am confident that with some cutting, any weapon will fit.

     These arms are mixed; obviously. They are various poses that shall add variety to the force, thus hopefully eliminating the "cookie cutter" effect that most systems suffer from.


     These arms are for those special weapons and hot shots that we see with the Astra Militarum (Astra what? This is the guard, son). I hope that with good glue and probably a good knife to scrape the putty away will end up looking better than what we see here.

     A platoon has attached to it a heavy weapons squad and I intend to mimic a modern infantry platoon for wargaming as much as possible. This includes HMGs and such.

     Also attached to a platoon is a mortar team. Where I should place them amongst the established codex is up for debate.

     Gasp! Something not from Anvil Industry! From Mad Robot Miniatures who will also love me or hate me are their own brand of heavy weapon crew arms. I love variety and I am curious to see how these fit into the army when most of it will be from Anvil Industry. We shall see in due time.

     These two from Puppets War (another who may love or hate me) will be used for my "Ogryns". I need a name for them. Anyway, these guns look like they will make neat "Ripper"guns. This just leaves frag bombs. I may go with out of scale grenades or something along those lines.
