October-November poll! Lets choose the way!
🕑 Added 2023-08-10 18:03:06 +0000 UTCPrepare for trouble!
And make it double!
I'm currently working on September release, but let's start the discussion in advance!
As always you can check the existing themes in the spreadsheet below to propose new ideas, which will appear in the future polls. Also - if i did not add something you already proposed, please do it again as i could just forget.

All my polls are held in a bit complicated, but more fair way to my opinion: Initial poll will have several subjects and if none of them will reach 50%+1vote, I will make second round with only two post popular choices. A bit like during elections, yeah.
We're also back to 4 choices, hurray!
1. US and Soviet-Russian tank crews (previous second place)
As Big Nick remarked, there are terrific AFV minis from Bob Mack out there, but not enough crews for them.
For Corporal will be a 4 + 4 teams (Abrams crew and T-55/62 crew so to speak)
For Sergeant will add extra heads and "tank commander in hatch" options
2. North Korean troops (random)
Will that be an oldschool with guys wearing ushanka hats and long coats, or the new ones with peculiar and stylish gear? Up to you to decide!
3. VIPs + bodyguards in suits (random)
A long-lasting request - bodyguards with pistols or small SMGs and their VIP. Two-month release will mean MORE people
For Corporal will be 2x "three bodyguards + VIP"
For Sergeant will add one more bodyguard per release
4. Combat Octopods Jagdgruppe "Verlorene" (monthly special - THREE MONTHS RELEASE)
Truly a special! I've been thinking a lot about what i want it to be and now want to tell you!
Specialized search-and-observe squads of SIN division, the Verlorene are tasked with investigating the areas of supposed undeath incidents and act as a first response, foreshadowing the arrival of heavier killteams (such as Tranquilizers).
Since in my headcanon they're German-originated, i want them to be very German in looks.
They'll be wearing BW Smocks, some light gear, German field caps etc. and big backpacks as a most distinctive features
For October: Jägereinheit (four operators with UMP45 SMGs) and some extra cool stuff for Sergeants
For November: Feldkontrolle and Unterstützung (squad leader, field analytic, medic and drone operator) and some extra cool stuff for Sergeants
For December: Scharfschützeneinheit (two sniper pairs with bullpup rifles) + WA2000 for Sergeants (yes i love this gun, it is weirdly beautiful)
Special thanks to Dan for spellcheck. I have a lot to tell about them, and I'll tell more if they win
