Ahh...all weapons are dummys, because in germany we have very ........hmmm ....weapons law Greets watts

How many Guard players there (or anywhere) can say they have a suit of Kasrkin armour? I might leave that bayonet in the autocannon picture at home though... How long did it take you to make the uniform?

Thanks, oooohh...hehe...the first reason to built this equipment was take part on the gamesday 2006 in cologne/germany. We take part as an complete squad with an inquisitor, 1 officer, 1 sergeant an 11 guardsmen...we get the first price... complete we change 450kgs of steel into armour and weapons... But now I do it because 1. I like to create this things... 2. I´m a little militant...... 3. I like the guard... but now its time for an other equipment..and I like the airborne troops...but the new stuff is´nt made off steel, I´ll use aramid/kevlar to laminate it, because of the weight( currently near 34 kg´s) my fisrt project is an elysian pattern heavy bolter with bipod, like the forge weapons. I start this two days ago. Pics from the gamesday shown on the hp www.inquisitionstrupp23.de/you must klick on the inquisitors stomach and then look at "Galerie" the latest pics are "5.Firebug-Turnier" greets Watts

RedsandRoyals: Sorry, seeing your posting to late... We need nearly an half of an year to produce all items of the squad, but there was only an standard helmet and the most of the guardsmen have no leg and arm protection. since the beginning of 2007 I working for some details on my own equipment and do some bigger weapons...like an transportable shelter with turret armed with an assault cannon... greets watts

Hmmm...I think a complete army for playing tabletop is´nt cheaper than organizing the material for the personal equipment of one real soldier....but I agree , its a problem for somebody without tools like grinding machines and welding equipment... 8-)then it gets difficult......... greets watts

I don't think I can honestly express how awesome you are. As a US Civil War reenactor, things like this are way up my alley. Amazing fun, and amazing way to represent the hobby. Wow. Cracking good job. Wow.

Thanks, I ll do my best for the emperor @hasagwan : At the time we start the project the officer(myself )use only an Boltpistol and Sabre/ 3handgrenades. The Inquisitor uses an inferno pistol and an psi-bar( I do´nt know, is this word correct?) But currently the officer use an not codex-like equipment..he use an commando-like equipment..primary weapon is the combined weapon Lasgun/bolter( 5Mags for the las/7mags for the bolter) secondary weapons are an Cal.45 Automatic pistol on the side, an submachine gun(like the sten) on the back of the armour as an reserve weapon, and a tanto combat knive at the right tight protection..............because its cool ;D F3L1X : Hmmm....the tank is an real problem....I had organized an british ferret scout car last year, but I have many technical problems...its more expensive than planned because I need a new engine and transmission.... Removed : I can´t do that, because in germany it is not allowed to use public streets with heavy tanks ;D sorry... starwoof: Thanks...... SirAndrewD : Civil war is an nice hobby too, I reeanact 14 years middleage as an templar knight.....but this hobby is more militant.. greets Watts

I bet all the 'civvies' outside Gamesday were like 'WTF?!!!' And the checkpoint.... that could be so much fun! ;D I just noticed that the guy with the grenade launcher in an earlier pic looks like he's about to have a laughing fit..... Exploding cultists maybe?
