On the subject of the Spanish Civil War, below a certain scale it won't be clear anyway, but at larger scales it will: In the SCW, among the socialists there were some mixed-gender armies and some all-female ones. Any female miniatures with appropriate weaponry for the time?

This might be more in line with a WiP thread. but, seeing as this is HWG related. I figured I'd ask here as well. I sort of went on a painting binge and finished up my 28mm WW2 German vehicles this last weekend.
And I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on an easy way to weather them. I'm leery about just experimenting and ruining them. But right now they need some mud and dust and such.

I'm a shit painter so I wouldn't listen to me at all, but I just drybrush my tanks with brown or white, or sometimes black if you're careful, taking care that its barely visible on most parts of the tank, but very visible on the tracks and gun barrel etc.

Has there ever been a historical miniatures game that represents like, the Mafia vs. the FBI in Prohibition-Era New York, or clashes between police and radicals in Greece? Stuff that's not actually military at all.

Fuck yeah! I'm going to make a display representing a coalition of democratic socialist and anarchist forces, to occupy the top of my dresser.

One of the expansions for Legends if the Old West had alternate rules for doing 1920's games with mobsters and such.
