More of my Ground Zero models, this time some of their new Colonial Defence Force sculpts. These are going to become the "Green Hollow Rangers". Green Hollow is a sparsely populated, heavily forested world and the GHR are renowned for their wilderness skills. I've opted for 2 packs of rifles, 1 support weapons and 1 light machine guns plus 2 packs of cavalry for recce work. The soft cap heads suit the image I'm trying to create, cavalry only come in helmets but I don't mind this because you can see why mounted troops would want an extra bit of head protection!

Cavalry - not available with caps, but helmets are a must for safe riding! |
The one thing that's missing is an obvious squad leader in the rifles pack but this doesn't matter too much. All troops are well-provisioned with full webbing, day sacks, partial armour (eg shoulder plates), the usual details you'd expect from GZG. I already have some ideas on painting which will tie in with some of the previous figures I've done. I'll put together a more in-depth review when I've got some painted.
