Firepower issue #3, pg. 78, "Penal Legions". Only one page, but some interesting stuff, including Human Bombs.  Is this archived somewhere on line ?

Tas, I could send you a copy of the page when I send your G/W stuff, as part of your "good bloke" bonus discount ! ?:laugh: ?Let me know. ?Seems to me like a good use of the criminal element. And don't forget certain cultures on this planet use "human bombs", currently (muslim fanatics - last week) and in the past (Japanese Kamikazi/Bansai charges - WWII).    For some ... everyday is a good day to die ... :ghostface:

Mate that would be brilliant- thanks.

Could I also be really, really cheeky and ask for a copy of the Mega Wars articles from CJ as well? ?I have the City wars one, but would like a look at the Mega Wars thing so I can push on with those mini-Campaign rules. ?Really appreciated mate.

And yes, its a good way to use criminals- its either than or a firing squad or summary execution from the Commissar after all... }:)

No problem, Tas !  I'll include those with your upcoming order.   Penal units, Commissars, firing squad, sounds like a day in Stalin's Russia ... How soon we forget ! }:)

Just doing my part to further US-Aussie relations ! :;):  And even after Uncle Joe Stalin died in '53, it still took the Commies almost forty years to figure out that this Capitalism stuff ain't too bad.  Of course a lot of Commissars had to get real jobs ! No worries about that in the Imperium ...  :laugh:

Hi!

I once heard "communism" was just a longer more painful route to reach capitalism....

If that is so, our Russian Brothers, still have a way to go. They're still trying to figure out how we beat the Russian armed and trained Iraqi Army twice so decisively.  And how we got Afghanistan under control in 3 months with a small force, and they couldn't do it in 10 years with a much larger OOB. :laugh:

Hi!

I remember Centurion, nice game system from FASA, although somewhat cumbersome.

C-in-C make the models now.

Yes, I remember those models, they were interesting ... and very futuristic. :)

Does anyone have ideas how to model penal infantry?

Or which figures would make good proxies?

Shalom,

IIRC, they look a lot like IG. The Old Guard gunners would make good Penal Troops, Human Bombs etc. ...  I used mine as gunners (doh!) and Cultists with 1 E40K Cultist on the base and 4 gunners.

Hi!

I think the best ones would be the Pan African Union units from GZG. They look very "irregular" and would be suitable for a penal legion.
