After this recent incident with Iran and the US Navy hostages...

Swedish CB-90 fast attack craft

Rigid-Hull Inflatable Boat (RHIB)
Combat Rubber Raider Craft (CRRC)
each with 2 types of infantry:
-"geared up" western spec ops or Marines, much like the 2014 US Infantry (example: http://laststandonzombieisland.com/2014 ... your-neck/ )
-wetsuit equipped frogmen (example: http://www.firearmsworld.net/usa/m16/di ... utch22.jpg )

Really useful for staging amphibious raids.

I would go with some CB90's.
I'm hacking away with ARVN(GHQ #VN6) as I type. Not going too well but I really want a few of them.
I have rigid raiders and Gemini/zodiacs

How about an LCAC?

You can get the LCAC already in Combat Command GHQ Stock # N159.

I thought I had seen one, but couldn't find it. Didn't think of looking there. THANKS!

Western civilians (including news crew)
S300 system (with option for vertical or horizontal tubes)

'Modern Special.ists' for each of the main nations to include:
engineers (including bomb disposal robot and soldier with metal detector), artillery crews, spotters, snipers, pointing officer types.

BVS10 or Bronco for my Royal Marines
Armoured dozers / Front loaders

More varied technicals - or weapons kits to adapt the existing technicals.

Civilian vehicles eg generic sedan, minivan and Euro and US style articulated trucks

CB90 mentioned earlier would be great. That'll do for now.

[Edited to removed the censoring on special.ists]

Waddell wrote:RedLief is entirely correct. PerfectSix makes some fine scenic castings for a wide variety of periods, all of which I've found useful. Their size complements GHQ's line very well and the owner of the company is almost as friendly as his GHQ counterparts. It's a good company with good products.

Also, for Ben above, GHQ already makes slung accessories. Check out this:

http://www.ghqmodels.com/store/us54.html

It's designed to go on the back of a WWII U.S. half track but I've gotten some to use on some Strykers and Bradleys. Give it a look!
Thanks Waddell,

I already use this set and find it quite useful. You may recognize it when looking at the CV90 topic...

Cheers,
Benjamin

How about 1/2400 scale LCACs and other modern landing/assault craft like the WWII line has.

edit: While I'm thinking about it how about some actual 1/2400 scale CH-53 Super Stallions, Super Frelon, Cougar, etc.

The GM prototype XM-1. 105mm or 120mm - either one is ok. (Someone already did the Chrysler prototype and discontinued it.)

GHQ,

Could you "sticky" this so it remains near the top?
