What does everyone think of these types of weapons released in a "generic"
form, with either a generic crew member or no crew member at all?

The reason I ask is that I suggested to Jon that I'd like to pick up his NSL
RAM mortar, minus the crew. I have NSL combat armour troops. I WILL get some
NSL Jagers, including the HAMR team and the mortar. But I'd like a mortar or
two for my NSL combat armoured guys, as well as my Japanese Mercs.

Jon said he'd think about it. Perhaps if there's a demand for it, he'll make
the weapons available separately. It's not like they need special castings (at
least not the mortar; the other weapons might if they are moulded into a crew
member).

If interested, you might want to contact Jon.

Well, a HVY MG should have crouched or even prone crewmen behind the tripod
mounted weapon. Some 25mm sandbags would also be nice. Generic models would be
nice I suppose. Especially mortars and such. Though a couple of MG crewmen for
each nationality would be great.

I STILL want a Japanese sniper! And ECM figure. (I'm almost finished painting
my Japanese PA, and will have them in a scenario on Monday. I thought these
suckers were kind of homely at first, but they are growing on me now that the
painting process is nearing completion.)

The Japanese and NSL figures I have come with a number of kneeling figures. I
would like some prone figures, though. Particularly for use in FMA, where I
could use figure poses instead of counters.
