Anyone interested in participated in an armoured personnel carrier campaign? Any era would be OK.

I could be in depending on the timelines.

By APC/IFV do you mean infantry carrier only or could variants of an APC apply? e.g. FISTV, ARV...

This year is really full so I was thinking late this year at the earliest.

I would think any armored vehicle that transported troops to or from battle would apply. I would also think variants such as the FISTV would work as well.

Hope I answered your question.

If halftracks count as well I might be able to push in an M2 or M3 halftrack. I would have to see on short notice though.

Cheers!

Sounds good to me. I am in if it is starting late this year or early next year.

Thanks for the initiative

Would an M-20 Grayhound or an Sd.Kfz.222 count I have had my eye on these for a few weeks now.

Tony,

If it doesn't finish til say June next year I'd be up for it - got a number of APC type projects I could do once some other stuff is out of the way late this year...

(I fancy scratching a 1:35 Mark IX, the WWI prototype for the APC!)

Hi Tony,
to sum up things, this campaign is for armored battle taxis either wheeled, half-tacked or tracked. Any era will apply.

To narrow the scope, I think you'd stick to personnel transport vehicles only and not variants, that was the meaning of my first question and this is how I understand your answer

.

If the time frame is the end of this year or next year, count me in.

A time frame that puts the start around 4th quarter 2010/1st quarter 2011 would be nice. Still have a bunch of APC and IFV in stash (Sd.Kfz 251, Warrior, Coke Can, Combat Coke) and a Marder 1A5 is coming up late this year from Revell.
