Gents, I have quite a few Green uniform ZIPRA troops for the Bush War and was looking to add some ZANLA troops in the 'buff' colors. Whilst I know there is a lot of variation, I wonder if anyone could suggest the alternate uses for troops that look like this
Congo, Angola, ??? link Any thoughts much appreciated. Cheers Happy Wanderer |

Pretty much any real or made up African conflict |

Agreed. Given the number of Latin nations that have folks of African ancestry I've used them in Latin American conflicts as well. |

Gents, It looks like a platoon of these will do for a whole swathe of troops
a pretty versatile unit. ..any other thoughts from others welcome. Thanks guys. Cheers |

I used all the one's I bought as PLO militia in 1980s Lebanon by adding a head wrap, going to do the same thing with the Somalis |

Happy you can have them prop up any regime in Africa you want (throw a dart to pick) I promise you they will be happy to be as ineffective for any country 'real or imagined' in Greater Azania. 8_) Add a few technicals and a truck or two for the loot and ladies and you have a real hard lot, Not.. Happy gaming. Cheers |

They could be used as Poachers!! Rhino/Elephant poaching has increased these past few years. Jeff |

Or they could be Kenyan Wildlife Service, fighting the poachers. Except the RPG guy. I don't think the Kenyan Wildlife Service uses RPGs. |
