I just have the 500pt British Airborne Army starter set from Warlord.
| Unit | Points |
|---|---|
| Second Lieutenant & two extra Paratroopers | 91 |
| Airborne Section (5) SMG x 2, LMG | 96 |
| Airborne Section (5) SMG x 2 | 76 |
| Vickers MMG | 65 |
| Piat Team | 52 |
| 75mm Light Pack Howitzer | 66 |
| 2" Light Mortar | 46 |
| Total | 492 |
I may replace a few of the models with some of the other variants available - as the pack contents are variable and I could do with a more obvious light mortar and HQ. With hindsight I'd probably have chosen to buy some of the units individually for more control over the exact figures.
Next purchase will be a few more units to bulk these out, and I'll make a start on assembling a Chindit/Gurkha force.
