 Standard User Posts: 185  Askaris / German East Africa 1914-18rsjahn 16th May 2018 02:03:01 I'm toying with the idea to do a bit Great War in East Africa. Maybe 6mm isn't perfect for this kind of small war... But what will do for Askaris? Maybe colonial Egypts? And which of them: CEG02 or 04? Machine guns will be a problem... Best regards,

Try GWE03 - ANZAC Vickers Guns and crew for Schutztruppe MGs. The slouch hat will look the part. The MG is not quite right but will be fine in 6mm. GWB43 - British Middle East Vickers Guns and crew will work for King's Africa Rifles. Robert |
