Just started on my Hammers 15mm troops and was wondering if there was a guide
to painting Hammers Slammers or do they just use a generic colour scheme?

Thank you

I believe that they wear khaki. Cheers, Alan.

I asked this question a few months ago. Didn't get much of a response.
The books say Khaki, but the color of the gear was indeterminate -
probably black or brown. Powerguns are iridium (dull silvery, perhaps similar
to aluminum) Helmets? I would guess Khaki also.

Unknown if there are patches or badges, rank insigia is on collar. Unknown if
there are variations in the Khaki color (single supplier or cheapest bid
question) and if supporting equipment is also khaki or olive drab (ammo boxes,
trucks, tents, etc.)

The story that I've read (the latest one, I'm a newbie to the The Slammers)
says khaki uniforms with the regimental flash on the upper arm, not that I
could tell you which arm mind you! Personally I always allow myself a little
artistic license. Cheers, Alan.
