I guess the topic name is lame but what I would like to know is what figures were used for the USMC in 15mm? I know a lot came from GZG but which figure line was it? And what was used for the rest of the nations represented in the book, like the Republic of Arden and the DPRG.

Near as I can tell Irish, the USMC figs in TW appear to be the 'New Isreali" line from GZG. As GZG's pictures are a bit on the small side, it's hard to tell for sure. I did order some as I like their weapons and armor over some of the other sects. Looks like a close match from what I can tell.

GZG UNSC Light Armor troops (since I painted them). From my collection the figures are from GZG (FFL, UNSC, "Crusties" especially); Khurasan (Federal Infantry, Space Daemons, Felids); Rebel Minis (Earth Force). Vehicles are GZG, Old Crow, Khurasan and Combat Wombat predominantly. Others (Piers and Shawn) contributed figures and photos for the book, too. I'll let them identify them!

Irish, we used GZG New Israeli Hard Armored troops from GZG for the DPRG Guards. We used Peter Pig Hardened Militia figures from their AK47 Range for DPRG militia.
For the US Marines we used GZGs new NAC Rifles figures. For the Republic of Arden Militia we used Peter Pig French Foreign Legion (again from the AK47 line).
If you want actual product codes, I can get those to you later when I have more time. Just let me know!

Here you go, Irish:
USMC used the following GZG NAC packs: SG15-A07, A08, A09, A10, A11, A12
DPRG Guard units used the following GZG New Israeli packs: SG15-Z01, Z05, Z07, Z08, Z09, Z10
Republic of Arden National Guard (Militia) used these Peter Pig French Foreign Legion packs (all from Range 17): 105, 111, 106, 107, 110 (they used to make FFL guys with RPGs, but those are apparently not sold now).
DPRG Militia units used Peter Pig Hardened Militia packs (again from Range 17): 117, 118, 120, 126, 119, 122.
Hope this helps!

The USMC in green, with the camo'ed grav tanks...   Are indeed GZG... They were a joy to paint, some of my favourite 15mm figures. I liked doing them and the DPRG.

Yer... They have that 'Colonial Marine' look that just seems to suggest USMC in space to me!

I also have a new NAC force and while my painting is not nearly as good I can also vouch for good the minis are- crisp detail and lots of variety.

-Will second that. Wish Jon would make a 3rd pack of rifles for even more variety, but then I'm one of those sad gits that wants 25 different figures in a 24 man unit.
