Creating a fictional role play wargame for Boxing Day.

Its the state of Haytay (circa late 1930s),inspired by the hunt for the Holy Grail.

Now can anyone direct me to images of the Haytay soldier's uniform. The one close up I accessed suggests a Turkish style of uniform?

And yes,the game features a BIG WW1 era tank!

Will these do?

Thank you! Yes, I have askari in fez - SCW & WW1 East Africa.

The last image has me puzzled - is that the Turkish style kabalka ?

Talking of the tank, I have a model of it in 1/72

(with M5A1 Stuart for comparison)

Approximate with a Mk. IV Male and add a turret from a Valentine?

Also a Rolls-Royce armoured car screams inter-war/desert

The film tank is supposed to be a 35-ton WW1 MKVIII with a turret added - no idea where the turret came from.

The UK built 24 MkVIII of which all but six were scrapped almost immediately.

This is a picture of a US MkVIII, which had guns mounted in the superstructure, by the look of it.
