Old RAF type field.
2'x2' made to be used with a mirror on the edge of a board.

I plan to use the same trick on my new Yer Bouti International
to get a bit of distance for the runway.

Those are fantastic airfields! How much space do they take up when you have them all set up?

Home made tent city and shanty town.

I need to make a bunch more of these to go around the new Yer Bouti City.
The way I see it they are a much better defensive aid than my T55, T62 against the ever expanding CofC.
Just lots of AK's, RPG's and MANPAD's.
Sad but true.

Edit***Bases are 6"x4 1/2" no room even for a Stryker lol. just 4x4, donkeys and people power.***

redleg.
RAF field is only two foot by two foot!

YB City and airport total is 4 foot by 4 foot at the moment
(New YB City is planing on 8x4)

Goatland is 2 foot by 4 foot.

All fit into an old hi-fi unit, which takes 24" by 18" on the pull outs.

Great airfields and shanty town - really came out well!! Can you get some tips on how you painted your tarmac and made those great looking streaks and weathering? Thanks again for posting.

All the vehicles that have recently been posted have come out really well, Iâ€™ve been on break for a little while and not painting much but it is really inspiring me to get back down to that workbench and finish out a few things. I have been trying to get my infantry backlog out-of-the-way, but I have a lot of half finished infantrymen down there that I am kind of avoiding at this point.

Redleg,

Love the Stryker MGS vehicles.. Though there actual combat effectiveness has been mixed, based on what I have read, I think they are really cool. I have a pack of them painted up in desert sand color.

7.62.,

Nice work on what you have done with terain. very nice indeed.

Redleg,

Nice Stryker MGS, but STRYKER MGS IS NOT A TANK! Write that 100 times. Just like a howitzer is not a gun and a gun is not a howitzer, but both are singly properly referred to as a "piece." At least in the old Army...

Stryker MGS is ill-concieved, ill-executed, and an entire waste of money. It cannot be employed as a tank nor substituted for a tank. It is what we end up with when we do stupid things like move the Armor School to Fort Benning, the Home of INFANTRY. You cannot put a tank gun on an infantry bus and call it a tank. That is what happened in the 1930s when Infantry Branch was given responsibility for developing tanks and tank doctrine. The infantry has several lighter, more manageable and considerably cheaper weapons that will do the same job claimed for SMGS.

ARRRRRGGGGHHHH! PLEASE do NOT refer to MGS as a TANK!!!!

Keep it up and I will run my fingernail across a blackboard in your bedroom at 0100 some Sunday morning! Or call you up some morning at 0300, whisper "Lariat Advance" in a hoarse voice, and watch you grab your laundry bag and, cursing and muttering under your breath, toss said laundry bag on a passing garbage truck, hop aboard, and disappear for three days.

Like those strykers, Redleg.

7.62 I love those terrain board. I don't have time or space for any of those but would love to make boards myself.
