What do you get inside the intro box set (the one with the Hammerhands on it)? What minis come inside?

I am from the Czech Republic. It used to be beautiful country and it will be again.  O0

I made those pictures for my friend because he has the older edition (of the Box Set) and he wanted to know what's in this "Anniversary" Box Set. It was a rush job, so the quality could have been better. The second set of pictures shows miniatures.

I am not sure how to paint them. One option is to paint them in colours of Marik Militia. The other possibility is to use camo of our army. But which one? The gray-green as seen on that modernised Mi-24? But if we talk about ground forces, then perhaps the green-black camo as seen on that Pandur II MICV would be better. Actually I quite like it.

P.S. You wouldn't believe how small is Mi-24 on the ground, but how gigantic is this monster in air when it is making attack run just on YOU!

Spent a few years in the US Army and was stationed in Bosnia near Saravejo. I had my far share of watching Helicopters trust me. Thanks again for the mini pics
