JTinQT - Week Eight - VBCW - Police Reinforcements

Dear All

Just making a post to count for this week and a switch of genre for me. Time to beef up government reinforcements considering all the nasty red communist workers which have been appearing in recent weeks courtesy of my brother. Some timely police reinforcement figures from Ironclad Miniatures. These are technically from the Victorian range but think they fit in to my mix and match approach to the 1930's period ....


Also got a nice police sergeant rider from First Corps.


Added a sidecar option, also from another First Corps model, and have a choice of rider, created from a body swap with IronClad top half. Might do a different Command Officer figure later and can then use the sidecar combination for my command unit if I want. Not sure if the split basing will work but keeps it flexible for the moment.





Finally put a group shot of my police squad for a Bolt Action game. The police will be a militia squad so gone for a full 12 figures based on two sections each led by a pistol armed sergeant (one is in plain clothes). Also I have a 2 figure command squad also pistol armed, with an option to have them mounted or let them use the armoured police squad car. Finally sneaked in an option to field police snipers if I want.



Time to own up ... not actually played a game of Bolt Action yet. I was not especially interested in WW2 gaming but willing to go for the 1930's VBCW as an option. Just itching for the actual game now!

Hope everyone has a great week. 

Cheers Jez

  1. Lovely looking bunch of establishment constabulary! Nice motor bike and sidecar option, maybe a little sabot base to keep them together?

  2. Bunch of Rozzers aren't going to stop me. Looking good though. Think you should add a mounted section.

  5. Great work on these Crushers, Jez. Love the motorcycle. As Iain says a little sabot base would keep it easy for moving about.
