Red Earth Conflict Control (RECC)

South African based Private Military Group which had it's origins in the Rhodesian war. This company is very experienced in dealing with conflicts on the African continent. It has been involved in the Rhodesian, Liberian, Sudan, Mali and Ugandan war as well as the Sierra Leone civil war.

Little is known about it's assets but this company has been around for years and years profiting of the many African wars. They work for who ever is willing to pay the price. They have no moral code they work by, no rules they have to follow. Simply put they finish the job for the highest bidder.

More NAM rebels

I have added more rebels to my NAM (Northern Armed Militia) army. Most of them are Eureka Miniatures but the leaders are from Spectre Miniatures. If you look closely you'll see that these models have had a weapon swap. The original weapons look great and true to scale but they bend really easily.

With these models added to the total I now have 24 rebel soldiers ready for some interesting scenarios.

Election time in Zangali

Good evening Zangali... Today was the first day of the national elections. Voting was largely peaceful throughout the country during election day. Observers deemed the polls generally free, fair, and transparent. The country was holding it's breath because of the recent unrests.

The elections in Zangali are held over a period of three days to enable all Zangalians to vote. Some have to travel large distances and have to make a several day trip to reach the polling station to cast their ballots.


The current government has agreed to enable UN-observers to monitor the elections. They are present at the polling stations and so far they are satisfied. Each voter has to dip it's right thumb in a pot of red dye and make a fingerprint impression on their ballot form, Then sign the form with their signature and check the box of their candidate. This way no one can vote twice.

Tomorrow is the second day and maybe then more can be said about the possible outcome of the elections.

Hostages

I finished the hostages made by Spectre Miniatures. They're not more than pawns in the game but I really like them. You don't get a lot of models like these and they really help to set the scene on my African modern wargaming table.
