Peace for Galilee 1982

I've been collecting stuff for Israel's invasion of Lebanon in 1982 since the original Dave Alsop figures came out, about 1989 I think! It'll be in 20mm using my available 20mm Afghan terrain as a starter but with some specific scenery as well. I've got a fair stash of the "Peace for Galilee" range and its still available through Combat Miniatures although some of the castings are a bit ropey now they are still excellent figures, I've also managed to get one of the awesome Cromwell 1982 Centurions which is a super model but like the majority of the Cromwell stuff its a pain to get a hold of! The photo below is a front and back view of a test figure I've painted as an Israeli Para, complete with Glilon assault rifle/M203 combo, the item on his back is a folding stretcher. Dougie

  3. Hi Doug, I'm not sure how to contact you other than through a comment, but I'd like to talk to you about wargaming in Whitley Bay. I've just moved here and want to get my wargaming on the go again. Could you email me on smithrobertneil@gmail.com if you'd like to do that? Cheers, Neil
