I actually ordered a copy during the week there, will see how they look. Still have to decide which armies for it to do.

Nice one, let me know how they look. As I mentioned I don't mind which forces, whatever fits the part is fine by me. If left to my own devices, I'd probably do something from Catalonia, probably anarchist Catalonians.

If you fancy the Anarchists, I'm happy to do one of the Nationalist groups, Carlist or Civil Guard types probably

sold, I'm up for that. I'll probably get one of the militia army packs from Peter Pig in the near future, unless I find a better option elsewhere.

Got the rules in yesterday. They look a bit like Peter Pig's WW1 Rules Square Bashing, on a Grid with Assets etc. Forces are basically made up three platoons (each 8 Rifle Bases, LMG, Commander), with attached support weapons.
Now just need to decide between Moorish troops (cool uniforms), Carlists (a priest and cross for every unit) or Civil Guard (Tricornes!)

I've not played much grid-based games so I'm up for it.
Those are all cool options, I can see why you were keen to go them.

I have started trying out Chain of Command and I have their Espana! module for SCW. The game is supposedly a best fit for 15mm, so that gives us another game system to use. In particular it has a really interesting deployment system that's worth a look.
I'll be trying it online with Don and Company on Sunday to get a full shot at the rules.

It looks really good.
Shame there isn't a Korean War supplement. I imagine I'll need to mash together other force lists to make a hybrid.

Surely that is M*A*S*H together other force lists for Korea (sorry couldn't help myself)

I'll put some up once they're fully based. Not sure what to do next once I've got them finished

Just to check before I buy the wrong stuff (yes I have been very slow in getting around to this project)
15mm scale 25mm square bases, 3mm thick
3 men to a base for rifles 2 men to a base for commander/support [in the style of AK47]
