Go Behind Enemy Lines With Spectre Specialists For Modern Warfare
November 30, 2015 by brennon
Spectre have added a whole bunch of new miniatures to their collection over the last weekend. Both the Task Force Operators and the Deniable Operators sections have grown!
Task Force Operators
First up we have the new DEVGRU Team for the Task Force Operators who are a multi-role SEAL Team Six Unit that are able to deal with any conflict and come equipped with all kinds of nifty gadgets.
They even get themselves a dog who is armoured up and features comms and a camera too for when they want to send him scouting ahead.
In addition a new model from the collection comes with a Breaching Tool for when you need to bust down some doors and make a racket.
He comes with a shotgun too for when the quieter method doesn't quite cut it.
Deniable Operators
Sometimes soldiers have to be sent behind enemy lines with no support; Deniable Operators. These troopers are experts in their craft but if they get caught then there will be no help from their governments.
As well as these troops with standard issue weapons and wearing civilian clothes (hopefully with some body armour too) we have more specialists with the Marksman and Grenadier for when you want to go 'loud'
The range is growing incredibly quickly and we're looking at some interesting times for this game. As we learned last week they are now looking for Beta Testers so if that scratches your itch go and check them out.
I think there is an awesome chance to see some epic scenarios and missions with these models and I need to pick up a few to give it a go!
What do you think of their range?

I hate Spectre Miniatures! Eventually they have broken me – i’ll buy some minis for xmas! I promise.
They are stunning, as usual. Brilliant poses – takes me back to my youth!
I just posted a thing about modern warfare two minutes ago – it must be fate.
p.s., ‘deniable marksman alpha’ is my favourite!
Great figures. More and more contract types out there. So glad they’re represented… the self-centered bastards lol.
The DEVGRU team look great.
what rules do you use with those?
Spectre are coming out with their own rules pretty soon.
Uh oh ah. I also promise to buy some for X-mas.
So do I jump back on my soapbox about how the guns look a little bit too small still? It’s not even a lot, just enough to make it look wrong to me.
I don’t think that the weapons are too small at all. You need to remember that most mini manufacturers upscale weapons to make them look more proportionate, just for this reason. When you scale a weapon to fit into the miniature at the same ratio it looks undersized. I just had a discussion about this very subject with John-Paul from Battlefront this weekend at the boot camp.
Even so, look at the magazines of the HK416s on the US troops compared to their hands, and especially the bucket on the M249… the guns are just a tiny bit small compared to the features of the model, like 7/8ths the size they need to be IMO.
I think they are appropriately sized, but I believe its the fact that the butt stock on every one of the guns isn’t even slightly extended and its making it look off. I see what you mean for sure.
Anyone care to explain why they have 4 scopes on their goggles?
@lancorz, newer NVG designs use 4 tubes to provide better peripheral vision.
