The plan is to have the entire project finished by November this year ready to begin a series of campaign games as detailed in the book. The rules I will be using are Blitzkrieg Commander IV from Pendraken Miniatures.
First two units complete are both Iraqi Police using the 10mm Pendraken British from their Colonial Zulu War Range as a proxy as suggested in the Guide. A total of 18 bases (16 rifles and 2 HQ) giving a total of 54 miniatures.
What a unique little project! That region of the world has certainly seen its share of challenges, but yours will be quite a different take on it to what we usually associate with Iraq.
54 figs for points points Sir!
