if you like the insurgent look but want a more continental setting, the eastern european militia kits are easy to make and will be complatible with a surprisingly high amont of Warsaw/NATO gear and guns from the late cold war period, mixe those with civilian clothing for better drip

an interesting alternative to the typical rag tag insurgent vibe is the newly formed army, often rocking a mix of black and tan with weapons and gear taken from the previous governemental forces

getting up one step in visual story telling, it is interesting to take into account how important guns and gear are as a status symbol in the middle east as it allow you an surprising flexibility in the stuff you'll use to make your insurgents loadouts

starting up from scratch on this new plateform, ill go back to the absolute basic: the typical middle eastern insurgent, all you need is
_a Qamis
_a pakol
_an cold war era rig
_a retro, mag compatible gun
_a solid color cargo pant
_o good pair of shoes cause roleplay ain't worth risking your ankles
