After reading on cnn and other sites; This is my conclusion, Syria and Irak, will be fractured by that caliphate kingdom they (ISIS) want and a new nation will rise, if and only if no one stops them..

Then the Kurds will become independent, nation aswell.

Iraq will end up the size of kuwait (sarcasm).

Its a conflict to follow and i would like to play with my ghq figures.

The partiton of Irak is not new. Thre was a plan oÃ¬f this ryoe in 2003, after Iraqi freedom, based on religion basis.

Today the partiton may be:
Sunnistan, ISIS territory in north west of the country
Kurdistan: in north east of the country.(smaler than Sunnistan)
Shiasta: south of the country and the majoority of it.

Note that Irak is about 25 times the Luwait, so Shiastan will probably have a surface 15 times Kuwait.

You can get a similar list by running a Google search for wars since 1945.

Found this on the internet:

Now I know what to do with my spares: just assemble them in ANY configuration, and assign them to fictious rebel forces.

It strikes me that an airstrike on the Toyota plant would solve world terrorism.

Are those bmp turrets on a toyota? Lol

Who wants to airstrike on a toyota plant? And where ?

I just kit bashed a bunch of Toyota's based on Afghan photos. It appears that you can mount just about anything in the back of a Pick Up Truck with enough imagination! Great photo!

I would love to see a video of one of these monstrosities fired. Preferably while driving at high speed on a narrow road with abrupt dropoff on either side.

Waddell: I'd like to see pictures of your work.

Here's a link that I found interesting. It has a few pictures of where one of the BMP turrets might have come from.

An interesting odd force could be Today's Irish Army:

with some $200 of GHQ's miniatures, one could field almost its entire land forces.

Some other interesting oddball conflicts might be:

A) The Dominican War, Swedish designed tanks vs USMC M60's...

B) Any ex-colonial wars, they always seem to have a gamut of strange forces.

C) The Sri Lankan civil war.

D) Falklands Islands, maybe a bit of a 'what-if' if the Argies had put up more fight

E) 1941 invasion of Iraq and Iran by Britain and Russia
