From DennisC: Viet Cong Battalion 15mm for 'Nam (288 points)

Hello everyone, 

I've been pretty busy this week, painting up 2x companies of Viet Cong each consisting of 10 stands of 4 men each, 2 stands of 2 RPG guys and 1 stand of 3 LMG guys which comes out to 43 models of 15mm, x2 companies is 86 models.   

Battalion HQ is 2 stands of 4 men each, 6 stands of 2 civilians each, then 18 figures around 3 Mortars and 3 recoiless rifles.   124 models in total (248points), plus I have 5 bunkers (3 small 2 large) that I'll be conservative and count as 2x vehicles, so 16 pointsfor the 5 bunkers?

Total would then be 262 pts





This force is building into something special, although Dave will say they are too few and too small. Excellent work, you did under value them though

  9. Very nice work Dennis. Besides the minis I love how the bases have that loamy,mushy, red mud look. I can easily see them in dense jungle.
