QUOTE I will say this: Uber Kroot is mad. It is the good kind of mad, like your uncle who has a harmonica and breaks into 'Knocking on Heavens Door' at 9:30 in the pub after two glasses of rum and coke. Red Dragon

There may be some tweaking of HMG rules and points to come, but I'm pretty happy.

Or do I need to do a special Kiwi list and include the Bob Semple corrugated iron tank? -------------------- On the Work Bench: Always Quar!!, Firestorm Armada, Dystopian Wars, Rebasing all my WHF to Kings of War...

I think I need to actually check the ruls out further but it's noce to see something based in the Pacific (or at least involving those that fought the Japanese). The Kiwis pioneered alot of tactics that were later used in places lice Malaya and Vietnam etc... during their island clearing activities.. they were rather good at it even back then. -------------------- The greatest and noblest pleasure which men can have in this world is to discover new truths; and the next is to shake off old prejudices.
