The Armored Cav platoon vehicles

Just so we undestand what I'm trying to find infantry to fill, here are the vehicles of the armored cavalry (motorized) task force.

Vehicles are a mix of Rebel Miniatures, Rafm and Matchbox. The GZG mid-techers still looking like a good choice?


Light Scout cars. Rebel Miniatures on left, Matchbox with spare gun fitted.

Medium APC - RAFM "Imp" 6X6 wheeled with dual cannon/tube launchers

Matchbox Stryker given a primer coat of gray.

If one is good, two are better, right?

The Stryker is large - much larger than the Imp. But it's sci-fi so it's okay. A combo APC/FSV needs to be bigger.

I'd forgotten that the rear hatch actually can be dropped.

    GZG mid-tech infantry are a good choice for use with those vehicles.

    Yep, I think NAC or Colonial Defence Force, or even the two Tomorrow's War lines - DPRG or RANG http://shop.groundzerogames.co.uk/index.php?_a=category&cat_id=127 - would work with these wheelers. If you want less body armour then Peter Pig's Hardened Militia are very nice figures http://www.peterpig.co.uk/ak47_range_17.htm I have a bunch for Traveller TL7 - 8 Planetary Defence Forces.
