hi all thanks for the replies

@noyjatat I particularly like their second arabic kickstarter, some very cool stuff in there.

@marsniper27 that would be great, I could then dump them around the firing points on a PB also if you could model some onto pallets as well that would be perfect as I think they get dumped/delivered on pallets. although I can easily make some pallets up from coffee stirrers and matches.

@oriskany that’s the kind of stuff I’m after, thanks for the ideas. portaloos are a good idea but I think the use of John bags and burn barrels were more prevalent. Still a good addition however to give the feel of a temporary base. The sandbag things are called HESCO barrier , delivered flat and then rocks, sand and dirt are dumped into them to make them hard cover. this is the best file I’ve found for HESCO. Earlier on in the conflict the Paras had several conventional engagements around the PBs before the taliban realised they couldn’t win a conventional war against professional soldiers and it became a true guerrilla war. on the table i’m building id like to have the British patrol out of it around the board, get ambushed etc so im not looking to make a massive one, a small representation will do fine. doesn’t need to be grandiose.
