"Augment" the Oktober Guard

[Dirk Diggler]

I just bought the comic packs #6,7, and 101!
I don't like the weapons and accessories very much and would like to replace them! What accessories from marauderinc do you suggest to "augment" the Oktober Guard?

Daina should get a Dragunov Sniper Rifle, but what else?
Colonel Brekhov?
Shrage deserves the RPK PKM machine gun, what else?
Horrorshow?
Stormavik?
Lt.Gorky?
Dragonsky has his flame-thrower, something else?
Misha Zubenkov?

Hey, MarauderJohn, if you read this, your ideas would be very appreciated!

Thank you guys!!!

Here's how I did mine:
Daina: Dragunov Sniper Rifle
Colonel Brekhov: AKS-74U
Shrage: Tommy Gun
Horrorshow: RPK and RPG
Stormavik: AK-74 w/grenade launcher
Lt.Gorky: AK-47
Dragonsky: Flamethrower
Misha Zubenkov: AK-47

All great choices. The AKS-74U "mini AK" is one of my favs

[Dirk Diggler]

Thanx!
What about sidearms, knives, grenades etc.?

[Patrick A. Riley]

I'm a fan of the 9mm. A Luger could work, as could the M1911a1 45

The fragmentation grenades are nice as well

I don't know if these are truly "appropriate" for the Oktober Guard, but you should still always get what you like no matter what

Daina Dragunov and AKS-74U
Colonel Brekhov? AK-74 with grenade launcher
Shrage RPK
Horrorshow? RPG well it has to
Stormavik? same as Brekhov- or, same as Misha with a drum mag
Lt.Gorky? Combat shotgun
Dragonsky? His own flamethrower and AKS-74U
Misha Zubenkov? AK-47/74

The combat knife would work well for most of them, as would the grenades.

A few could use western sidearms, but Id leave them out if you want accuracy- most would use Soviet pistols

Are you trying to say Western sidearms aren't accurate? Traitor! Go back to France!

Cool topic! Only thing I could add to the discussion are the "Stick" grenades (Russians used a version similar to this for decades), the "Tactical" pistol would work well for all the figures (the pistol has a high tech European/Eastern Block look to it). Also, a GREAT item is the AK 47/74 with removable clip...but use the M4 Double Drum ammo clip on one of the figures (has the "AK look" but the double drum makes the weapon look even more modern & high tech)...nice look for Stormavik! In addition, I always thought Horrorshow, in addition to his RPG and a backup firearm, looked like he should carry a machete. Agree with a lot of the suggestions, so how about:

Daina Dragunov, AKS-74U, and sniper spotter scope
Colonel Brekhov? AK-74 with grenade launcher, 2 stick grenades & Tactical Pistol
Shrage RPK, 2 extra ammo drums, 2 ammo cans, Tactical pistol & Combat Knife
Horrorshow? RPG , Ammo Case with shells, 2 stick grenades, Tactical Pistol and machete
Stormavik? AK47/74 with Double Drum Magazine, 2 stick grenades, binoculars & Tactical Pistol
Lt.Gorky? Combat shotgun, 2 stick grenades and "sawed" off double barrel shotgun OR Tactical pistol
Dragonsky? His own flamethrower, AKS-74U, 2 stick grenades & Combat knife
Misha Zubenkov? AK-47/74 with banana clip OR Ak47 w/ wooden stock OR AK47 w/ Folding Stock, 2 stick grenades and Tactical Pistol

Thoughts?

I think the Tactical Auto is better suited for the OG. The M1911 is too much "USA".
The frag grenades could work very well! Thanx!

Very good choices! Thanx a lot!
I would drop the machete and give Horrorshow a combat knife instead! I think Brekhov should have binoculars as well, because he is the commanding officer!

Are you sure about the stick grenades? I thought only the germans used this design ("potato masher")!
