Cold War British Infantry, continued...

x4 new units added, all for the late 1950s-1980s period




All have exactly the same mix of ACTA and Matchbox figures



Regimental unit includes recon and Anti-tank groups. Here are the regimental assets from my earlier cold war  British efforts http://20thcenturywargames.blogspot.co.nz/2011/07/cold-war-british-regimental-assets.html




First up, Marines


Para



MMG platoons


Mortars



Marines... again :)





More Para, Sunray up front



+ x2 battalions of Guards


For CD the rate of fire for cold war platoons is x2, most WW2 platoons only have a RoF of x1



These units will work through about a 30 year period. I'll still use these figures as well   http://20thcenturywargames.blogspot.co.nz/2011/06/cold-war-british-infantry.html The organisations of later battalions really only add or remove machinegun platoons, so don't really alter the core unit size


I now have x7 battalions of similarly armed British infantry
