To wrench this back onto topic, I was thinking about Brother Jedidiah
Quesinberry, who definitely has his own distinctive Appalachian idiom and
would have appeared in FMA Sheep I if any such event had ever happened (which
it didn't). This in turn brought to mind all those Yet Another Confederate
States In Space clones. We sometimes see FT ships for them, but I don't recall
seeing any SG organizations for them.
So let's assume a population of deer/possum/coon hunters and wannabe
Winston Cup drivers, and add reverence for General Robert E Lee, JEB Stuart,
Stonewall Jackson, and Moseby's Raiders. Mix in a touch of desire to be
different from the NAC and former US. What do you get?

Side A gets a standard platoon. Side B gets three guys with insanely
powerful home-modified rifles, who've just been told that today's the
last day of the Enemy Soldier season...

I'd have thought FMASII was plenty for you, Indy, but thanks for
volunteering to appear in FMA Sheep III.... ;-)

Did I say you would be alive? Pirate Sheeps of the ZOMBIEzi, isn't it?
Although I may have some difficulty finding a 15mm radiation-scarred
undead Japanese schoolgirl with excessive cleavage and roller skates.

FMASheep I never happened. FMASheep II happened, it was just... odd.

I just read an article on strategypage.com about Barrett producing their rifle
in 25mm. That would do it...

Are you switching to 15mm then, for round three?
Er, round two. Round one never happened, right... so this coming event would
be the second. Or something.

Still in therapy.

So use a 25mm one (GC range) and say she's a giant...? Or modify one of
the SLT range for Attack of the 30-foot Japanese Mutant Schoolgirl?
Phil, who'd like to _see_ that game at the very least... ;-)

Most NPCs will be 15mm, since I already have Stone Mountain figures for that.
I'm looking for good Victorian characters in 15mm, but I may well succumb to
the temptations of Foundry's "Darkest Africa" line and make PCs
and major NPCs 25/28mm.
> Er, round two. Round one never happened, right... so this coming event
Even though FMASheep I never happened, it was scheduled, so II was last year
and III is this year and you don't really expect me to feel the need for a
logical enumeration for this event anyway, do you?
> it was just...odd

Okay, make that "traumatic".
Peter Pig has some Wild west Civilians that might work to fill out some of
the Victorians. A selection of Officer type from Franco-Prussian or
Crimean war mould be a nice supplement also.

Right in scale with Jon's earlier stuff! How clever! *snicker*
