How about a campaign for building a predecessor AND it's successor? Any scale, era and type of vehicle (AFV, soft skins etc.) as long as you have BOTH vehicles. This can be as simple as a Sherman M4A4, succeeded (at least in British hands) by a Sherman Firefly. Or it can be as complex as a Panzer IV, succeed by a Panzer V / Panther.

I should note that they must be the 'real-time' replacement; you can't build something like a Sherman, and say it's successor is something like an M1A1 Abrams (technically true but there's a huge age gap).

(In my own stupidity I skipped this step before I sent the official campaign over view in, hence now I'm writing this.)

could be a good reason to build a StuG or Panzer III and IV but I dont have any left in the stash What was the time frame were you looking at and when would you start it

Hmmm, chance to build both a Humvee and an M-ATV? Sounds good....

I'm in. From what I have in my stash I'm thinking along the lines of M3 Grant to M4 Sherman, or M4 Sherman to M26 Pershing. I do have a USMC M60A1 and USMC M1A1-HA that should fit the parameters of this campaign as well.

Hi Christopher,
well lets see what´s in the stash and then it´s "make ya mind up time"
M50 to M51
T55 to T62
T80UD to T90
StuGIII G early to mid.
StuGIII G mid to late
Jagdpanzer Hetzer to Hetzer Starr

Holy moly dude, you could have a damn good thing going here . What are you thinking of for the start and duration?

extend this campaign to aircraft and ships as well, and I bet you'd get lots of takers.

Would an Autoblinda 41 and then a 43 work? Jeff T.

Time frame would more than likely be March 1, 2013 to September 1, 2013. I personally feel that year long builds are a bit ridiculous but if you guys want more time, since it is two models, we can go for more time.

Jeff, my understanding, after a quick look at Wiki, that the Autoblinda 43 was a variant, not a replacement for the 41. If you can find something that shows the 43 was built to replace the 41 than I'd be fine with it.

Vance, I'd thought of that but I wasn't sure if this thread would get enough takers, let alone AeroScale and Model Shipwrights. I'll post this on both forums as well seeing that people seem to like my idea.

Just finished suggesting the campaign for both Model Shipwrights and Aeroscale, hopefully we see the same amount of interest.

O.K. let's try again Merkava and Merkava Mk.III? Jeff T.

Jeff, I would say that's a variant but considering the MK I was only a 105mm compared to the MK IIIs 120mm it's acceptable (not counting the likely hundreds of fixes and upgrades). Plus the Merkava is just cool! Anything Israeli is for that matter.

Count me in...thinking T-72 and T-90

Current count for the ten enlisted (I'm guessing as a few haven't said anything definite);

Sean
Sal
Matt
Paul Badman (there's a bunch of 'Pauls' on here!)
Jeff
Jon

Six so far, though nothing from Model Shipwrights or Aeroscale.



Reposting the proposed timeline;

March 1st to September 1st, it's up for change if you guys feel we need more time but I personally think year long campaigns are silly.

Time line looks good,count me it.Jeff T.

hello. I'm ready for this campaign. I found what I'll do, Bantam BRC 40 and one jeep. steph

Ohh, cool idea.
This one i think.

Steph, that's great; you do realize there's a Jeep campaign going too, right?

Jason, as long as you stick with the proper Australian markings that's fine (it's odd they would replace the Leopard with something so similar).

hello, I also joined the campaign jeep, I love this car. (I should have 5 or 6 in my closet) .the campaigns ,it's good excuse to build two.

At least you found a couple builds where you can build what you like Steph.

This is the inspiration for my builds:

That's great Sean, should be interesting to see.

New count; (and a bit of a bump!)

an me! I think I count for the ten enlisted?

8/10, nine with me.

One definite on Aeroscale though the ship people haven't taken to the campaign.

Hey guy; just bumping the thread. Hoping to find some more interested people so I can get this submitted (correctly!).

Campaign would run from March 1st, 2013 to September 1st, 2013 unless people feel we need more time.

it's OK for me
steph

If I find something in my stash I'm in.
