Ok I have been holding off enlisting on for this 1 mainly because I pretty much stick to WWII. But I have a deal in the work for this Dragon T-34
Could I use this here as a North Korean or North Vietnamese tank. I have photos in both services

The kit I am using for this Campaign is gaining a lot of popularity on eBay!
I paid like $15.00 bucks for it a few years ago and now almost every one on eBay have sold for over $50.00!!!
Very tempting to sell it off and get a BRAND NEW KIT.

NO!! Should I sell mine?!!!
At that price I can get me a much nicer kit for the Campaign and have some beer money leftover.

Hope everybody is doing well! I am going to enlist with a T-34/85 from the Yugoslavian Civil War. I believe I will depict a Croatian machine in a vignette with some soldiers. The Cyberhobby offering arrived today so once I get my figures picked out I will post the pre-build photos before the campaign jumps off. Looking forward to it!!!!

It is a fact that under equal conditions, large-scale battles and whole wars are won by troops which have a strong will for victory, clear goals before them, high moral standards, and devotion to the banner under which they go into battle.

Although not a highly enlisted Campaign, I feel it will be the most interesting one to date and cannot wait for it to start.
Thanks Mike for creating it!

Plan on doing the Tamiya T-55 Enigma if there's no complaints. Probably a vehicle from the Tawalkalna division provided they used T-55s; I should probably look into that.
What cheek! Let them have it!

Hi Chris,
I love the look of the enigma, was it used just during the 1st gulf war or before / afterwards internally as well??
