4th Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group

ArmiesArmy would like to announce the start of its 15mm 4th Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group 'KickOFF' campaign! For about 10 years now I've been an avid admirer of the “What if..." scenario that would have NATO Forces and the Warsaw Pack Troops lock horns in multiple engagements all over the world in a hypothetical World War 3. With the growing interest in 15mm Cold War gone hot and actually having a successful range cold war range already I am looking at some of the smaller nations to game with! .

Myself and Canuck Miniatures dreamt up this idea several months ago, however as in all things real life got in the way. I was concentrating on a British Cold war Kickstarter and it was unfair to start another until it was finished. In this time David has moved to different projects, however still needs to be recognised for his original input.

The goal is to raise funds to produce a 15mm range of Canadian Infantry and Armour suitable to field the 4th Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group for the Cold War period of 1980 to approximately 1985. Infantry will have the C1 Submachine Gun, FNC1 Rifle and FNC2 Light Machinegun as well as the Carl Gustav 84mm Recoilless Rifle, m72 Light Anti-Tank Weapon, C5 General Purpose Machine Gun and the 60mm Mortar. The troops will have the ubiquitous M1 Helmet. For the Armour portion I’d like to produce The Leopard C1, M113, and Lynx recce vehicle. I am looking at additions to these vehicles in the form of dozer blades for the C1 and M113 and TOW launcher mount with crewman for the M113 to make an M150.
