hi there guys

im wishing on doin a royal marine armoured support group in tilly sur suelles ( not sure if its spelt right ) i have the centaur and will be aquiring a sherman at some point for it but wanted to add some troops going to check a building out, i found dragons commonwealth troops in my stash and thought these would be great for the poses getting ready to go in the house being cautious. so my question is is everything they have on them ( kit wise ) suitable for royal marines i.e. kit pouches and day sacks ?

cheers in advance tony

Yes. But... You'll have to add additional/change equipment such as Bergens. Apart from that, Uniforms/weapons are basically the same..

Hi Anthony,

The bergens are the main items, plus perghaps a few green berets.

Accurate Armour do a Commonwealth update set that will give you good bergens and bandoliers, plus short bayonets and more appropriately sized gas masks. If you have some Tamiya ammo pouches from their Infantry set they are much better than the Dragon ones which tend to be square boxes.

I used them for my Commandos on the LCs and it's a great set.
