Gadge Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 Hi Guys I’m very happy to announce that this month I joined the Airsoft International team as a staff writer. I’ll be running a regular column every month focusing on the new and expanding genre of WWII airsoft. I’ll be looking at reviewing kit, WWII loadout guides, battle and game reviews and some ‘how to’ articles to help you get your kit looking 40s-tastic. We’ll be keeping the pages light and accessible and most importantly… fun. So if there are any particular units you’d like me to look into or if you know of any good upcoming games or WWII related kit… please drop me a line. Shortly you’ll be able to contact me via the magazine but in the meantime while we set that up PM me via the forum Cheers Gadge Link to post Share on other sites

neoptolemus Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 How about a Volksgrenadier Division impression from the Ardennes in 1944? Link to post Share on other sites
mikoyan99 Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 How about rarer things like IJA (Imperial Japanese Army) units? I don't think i've ever seen anything on that, or perhaps Commonwealth troops in Burma/south east asia? Link to post Share on other sites
Beast06 Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 I'd love some article on Soviet Sniper loadouts. Link to post Share on other sites
Cyber Soldier Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 How about rarer things like IJA (Imperial Japanese Army) units? I don't think i've ever seen anything on that, or perhaps Commonwealth troops in Burma/south east asia? I'm gonna second this, particularly with the production of the Types 38 and 99 by Tanaka.

Oh the irony). Edit: Oh hang on, thats American. Link to post Share on other sites
wideload Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 sounds like a excuse for gadge to get pictures of his many load-outs published...... Link to post Share on other sites
pjones Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 sounds like a excuse for gadge to get pictures of his many load-outs published...... It would save me some searching the forums, that's for sure. Unless there's a "Gadge" picture thread. Here's another one that isn't quite American: The First Special Service Force, aka "The Devil's Brigade." Combined Canadian/US special operations unit. Link to post Share on other sites
Gadge Posted January 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 sounds like a excuse for gadge to get pictures of his many load-outs published...... I wish. In fairness chap, I will be writing about said kit but I'll probably not be wearing it myself very often. It would be a rather silly series of articles if I was in each one. I'd like to get models who look the part really... you know guy with a bit of a beard for chindit etc. Link to post Share on other sites
rwoodcock01 Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Congrats Gadge just caught this, would be nice to see a British loadout for Burma during WWII. Very Curious about that era as my Grandfather was in Burma in the medical core. Cheers Rich Link to post Share on other sites

Diego4112 Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 How about scenarios? fast paced WWII action! perhaps even with rules about landmines or artillery. I have a couple designed but never tried... perhaps I could send you a couple of those. Link to post Share on other sites
Jorge14 Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 17th Airborne in operation varsity? I would suggest paramarines but the kit would run around $6,000. DAK? Link to post Share on other sites
