Most interesting project. Looking forward to battle reports. Any suggestions on sources of 20mm M113's, either resin or plastic kits. Terry ... usage?...
Hey Tom, Italeri makes a good kit - an ACAV which has extra parts so it can also be made into a straight M113. Britannia has an ACAV, an M113 an M106 (mortar...
Thanks, Vince! Trumpeter is getting expensive, here! I can get 3 (or more) M-113's in N scale for the cost of just one of their's. />) I forgot who posted a...
go for the easy model made/painted M113's - they do a whole bunch of models - normal and acav in a mutitude of liveries ( US and ARVN ) . these are made up...
Hi Just painting up my Britannia 20mm PBR. The crew come with berets - anybody know correct colour (my guess is black and have found many photos of black...
Hey Mark, US Navy berets were black - like the book title, "Brown Water, Black Berets." Apparently, this might have had something to do with the SVN junk...
Yes, I agree with Rapid Fire. The pre-made, pre-painted Easy Model vehicles - if you don't like modelling - are quite nice and a good value for the money....

I'll bet it is a pretty good ruleset considering the publisher, but it is just an expansion on the Disposable Heroes rules, and you need their SOCWAD expansion...
Hi, I agree about having to buy 3 books to play one game. I have had good reports of these rules but would find it too much of a pain having 3 books to operate...
The three books could be worth it since it will let you play both Vietnam and WWII. I guess it all depends on how well they are written. I stopped by my FLGS...
It's not so much the expense of 3 books, it's the flitting from one book to the other that bothers me. I like everything to be in the one place. I understand...
Helicopter rules are in the 3rd book. Right now my FLGS is in "year end inventory closeout" mode so I got a great deal (50% off) on a 28mm ANZAC platoon but...
Does anybody know if anybody is making a 1/72 model of this gunship? For that matter, does anybody know where to shop for parts to kitbash one? I've noticed...
Testors has an AC-47 in 1/72. I bought one 20 years ago, but I think they still make it. The guns are pretty sad, but the decals are good. You know, I don't...
I don't recall any daytime AC47 deployement, but in my current research for my essay on An Loc and related game I have some instances of daylight employement...

I recently bought a Monogram AC-47 on eBay for $3, so they can't be that rare. I haven't checked the kit yet, but I don't think they would package 1/87 as...

Puff the Magik Drago was awsome. With the programed mini-gun spitting out bullets six time facter than an M-60, their line of fire would look like a red beam...

I would agree with that if gaming in 1/72 scale, alas there are no C-47s in 144 scale. In fact very few Vietnam era 144 scale aircraft models available. Greg ...
