Civil Guard

[George Spiggott]

Hola

Has any work been done towards using the Guardia Civil in Spain in Flames? I have enough Peter Pig Civil Guard Figures to make up a small platoon and I would like to use them.

If I recall correctly they were an option in some of the lists when version one was published.

Muchas gracias

Hola George Spiggott
Unfortunately we still waiting a new briefing that includes it.

Gracias

I looked up the Giuardia Civil rules in the old rules, they were much like Nationalist regulars (six bases of four models plus a command base of three models all equipped with rifles) and I think for the time being they will count as regulars in my nationalist army. Many of the models have SMGs, does this reflect their historical armament?

Some of the officers may use SMG, but the usual weaponry is the Mauser rifle or any bolt action rifle from that time (7mm or similar).

Gracias. I think they will count as regulars in my games. Many of the Nationalist lists have Seccion de Fusiles as a Support Platoon. I think they will be perfect.

Maybe they can defend my Peter Pig nuns in a scenario.

Maybe they can defend my Peter Pig nuns in a scenario.

I don't think the nuns need any protection XD

Good picture.

I have found a Civil Guard entry in the Caballeria Blindada list but they have no unit entry or points cost.

Hello George:

Historically is possible a CG unit wit a LMG (Hotchkiss M1914/22) or even a HMG (Hotchkiss M1909/14).

Greetings.

Hola y gracias.

I may add an LMG team to the platoon.
