Has anyone rated up the Scorpion/Scimitar and the Panhard AML 90 for the Falklands conflict? I want to include these two vehicles as potential support.
Also, I am working on 15mm forces for this war, using MJ Figures. Does anyone have any insight on aircraft/choppers in 1/100 scale? Would prefer pre-builds, but kits would be acceptable.
Thanks!

If I remember well those vehicles are already rated in the rulebook or in the various extensions and in the Motor pool here

At work, so don't have my copy of the rules handy, but the Motor Pool definitely covers what I am looking for! Thanks!
Now, just need good sources for 1:100 aircraft and choppers!

Take a look at Armaments in Miniature at http://www.angelfire.com/nj4/armamentsi ... st15mm.htm. While Falklands isnt listed, they do have Vietnam and African Wars aircraft that might serve. I've painted some of their WW2 aircraft for a friend's FoW armies and find they are very nice models, with great decals. Resin castings, and sometimes wings are warped when the model arrives, but dipping in hot water and adjusting with a little bit of work usually fixes the problem. Tom Oxley

After the invasion (of Argentians) dont forget about the minefields if you havent already included them in you scenarios

Thanks, folks, for the tips. Like those planes! Some of the more recent ones might do good work over Africa!
