Now they do look good. I'm painting some Peter Pig insurgents this very minute, but might have to add these to the list! Also, an idea for future packs – dismounted vehicle or helicopter crew (thinking Black Hawk Down here). |

"Saddam's most trusted militia, the Feyadeen is a paramilitary group with a history of assassinating or ruthlessly quashing political opponents. Literally translated, Feyadeen means "those ready to sactifice themselves for Saddam. FOX News reports that the Feyadeen are behind the…." Feyadeen :-D |

Sorry, Geoff, but that's why you shouldn't rely on FOX News!*** It's "Fedayeen Saddam": link …one of many uses of "Fedayeen": en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedayeen ***…or the BBC either, which is *very* surprising: link Allen |

As Anglophone Orientalists have done for a couple of centuries, you can fiddle about with transliterating Arabic vowels, as they're indicated by diacritics instead of characters: thus Muhammad, Mohammed, Mahmud, etc. But switching consonants about probably isn't a good idea, unless it's intentional, to avoid showing up on Web searches (or intelligence data bases!).

Fedayeen it is! Thanks Allen! |

Whatever you call 'em, they look great! I'm looking forward to getting my hands (and brushes) on them. Shawn. |

"Sorry, Geoff, but that's why you shouldn't rely on FOX News!" I know, that's why I said it :-D |

Sweet figs! I'll need some of those! |

nice Mike. I already have a load of the RM gangs and Zombies. Somehow I feel a few of those would have a role in my gaming plans. When are they likely to be aveialable? P |
| Rebel Minis | 04 Aug 2008 8:57 a.m. PST |
Thanks! I am hoping to have them at the end of August. RebelMike |

"I know, that's why I said it" Oh, just feeding my petty pedantry, then. OK. Cheers, Mike. These look nice! Allen |

Sorry Mike, yes, they do look extremely nice. How do they scale up next to a Peter Pig US Marine? |
| the trojan bunny | 04 Aug 2008 11:35 a.m. PST |
Very nice! I'll have to get some for my Ambush Alley games. When are they due out? |
| Cyrus the Great | 04 Aug 2008 11:50 a.m. PST |
Very nice. I'd buy them for AK-47 Republic. |

The Fedayeen look great but the Tom master looks better. Almost can't believe it's 15mm MIke – looks like it's from The Assault Group. Cheers
