Title: Cartel Peace Keepers/Cartel Security Police
Post by: Bakemono on October 26, 2005, 01:01:08 PM
Helo to all.
Maybe someone can help me. Do anyone have ilustration of CPK or CSP? I want make some home-made guys and a'm trying to figure out how they look like. Only i have is ilustration on page 410 i rulebook. But those guys in black are CPK or CSP?? In mine opinion CPK look more like soldiers and CSP look like real world S.W.A.T or something like that.
Thanks for all answers and sorry for any typo and mistakes, english is not mine best language. ;)

I'm currently working on a Cartel force. For the Security Police I am using the soft cap Capitol Infantry painted to match the security company I work for and for the Peacekeepers I am using soft cap infantry but am removing the bill from the cap and using green stuff to make berets. I got the idea from my time in the US Army. The Sinai Peacekeepers wore a distinctive beret and I was stationed at Bragg back when the maroon, black and green beret actually meant something. Changing the standard headgear to the black beret in the Army was a mistake and screwed the troops that had actually earned them, especially the Rangers.

The old Football/Soft caps Heavy Infantry are equipped with M-50's if i remember correctly.  Just putty on (or go all snazzy and use clear plastic) a visor and you've a perfect recreation of the 410 picture, though I believe, given the weapon/armor loadouts, the picture on page 411 (middle of the three character portraits) to be the PeaceKeepers.

 I've been using the old "VOR union soliders". they make real good proxies till the EE gets to making their own. Chances are you can still can get a bunch cheap on e-bay.

For face shields on the football troops I am going to use green putty and then sand it smooth. When painted with gunmetal it should look like a reflective visor
