If I scratch a vehicle from the Battle for Dune game would that qualify?

Hey everyone!
Well I've been working on a banner lately and my original idea was to have something with an E-100 on it but then D.B.M. suggested using some pics from "Fall of Liberty". Thanks for reminding me of that game, I had forgotten all about it (probably because it was a load of ****).
I think it was a better idea because you can't see any vehicles on the banner at all which might encourage more people to build something other than just tanks.
So without further ado here's what I've got so far:
The URL is:

If you have suggestions and anything of the sort please post 'em up here!
Cheers!

I like the banner with the Germans marching in front of the White House!
How about using the Maus or the E-100 for the ribbon?

I'm in for this one.
I've been toying around with a M4A3E8 in1946 Germany.
Add-on armor
very well used
some battle damage
I think this will work.

Is anyone feeling up to making a ribbon? I think we should have someone with more experience design it.

Hi,
I'll try to join - I already have a horror-like what-if idea . It's FUBAR but I already like it. I hope I will be able to join you.
I'll propose you a ribbon as well - I'll try to present it today.
Andrzej
EDIT:
I don't want to start new post so here is my proposal for the ribbon - but first: some background: seeing Statue of Liberty on the banner reminded me of latest video by Metallica: All nightmare long. Story was that Soviets poisoned US with some kind of spore changing Americans into a zombies, and then "went to help"... US lies in ruin and is totally under Soviet Union's power. There is a scene of Soviet soldiers in gas masks with a flag of new US, just like the scene we all know from Iwo-Jima.
The difference is that the new flag is not in red, white and blue, just in red and yellow and has Soviet hammer and sickle instead of stars... This is one nightmare what-if vision for sure and my ribbon sugestion is the flag as shown in that video.
and here is small version
What do you think?
If you don't like it I can also make some Maus banner as mentioned before.

Well, I am tempted to do something in this vein. If I can get my modelling stuff set up again soon enough I just might go crazy with a Revell BRDM-2 with Dutch Resistance markings (or Italian Partizan markings, since referencing landscape details is easier done around the corner than back in my home country). Something, in short, in a 'captured' vein.
"After the death of Yuri Andropov in 1984 the Soviets accused the US of killing him. Tensions ran high - so high that on a cold winter morning in 1985 Soviet and Warsaw Pact forces started to pour into the Fulda Gap and the European hinterland..."
Something like that.

Alright, I enlisted for my first campaign. So please help me out - I can only start building when the campaign starts? Anything else I need to do (progress pictures, back story, etc)?

Ok, I have just enlisted too for my first campaign and have similar questions in my mind as Rob. With 1 year time to finish project, even so slow modeler like I, should get it done. I keep my fingers cross. I have some preliminary plans doing WWII armor (german or russian) which finnish armored forces could have had or captured from enemy.
