Empress Miniatures has continued with their releases for the Vietnam War period with a selection of Special Forces options in 28mm. You can now pick up a SEAL Team for the US as six characters bring an array of weapons to the tabletop.

Following the lead of Empress Miniatures, this is how the miniatures break down from left to right. First up you've got a soldier carrying an AK47 which was used because it didn't spook the enemy. The character also has a Colt Commander pistol in hand which has a suppressor attached.

Next to him, we have a character with an M60 LMG which allowed the team to lay down heavy and constant fire. Continuing along the line, we have two characters with M16s wearing LEVI jeans (as was pretty common) with one of them working as the radio operator for the crew.

The set is finished off with a character carrying a LAWS and a sawn-off pump-action shotgun. He is using a Stoner LMG with its drum magazine. The final miniature is carrying an M16 with a grenade launcher strapped underneath for an extra bit of firepower.

This is another great set of characters and could well be the core of your skirmish force during a game. I like the idea that THIS is all you'd need to pick up for playing as the US in the Vietnam War and you could then focus on building up the opposing Viet Cong force and the terrain for your table.
