So 16 April 2015 marks the 70th Anniversary of the commencement of the Battle of Berlin. Any interest in a campaign based around this intense battle?

If it doesn't start too soon I could be interested in this. Trying so hard not to get in over my cranium on campaigns. If you're talking about a 16 April start then I just might be there with you.

Hi,
Just finished reading Anthony Beevor's Berlin and Max Hastings Armageddon before that, so I will be interested in taking part in this one.
All the best,
Paul

I would be interested in this campaign. I have a Tamiya JS-2 in the stash waiting for this.

Would a JS-3 from the July victory parade in Berlin be acceptable?

sounds good to me; have a Tamiya JSU-152 in the stash just begging to be built for a Berlin street scene; might be good motivation and I'll finally be inspired to post some stuff; good idea; recently joined so I haven't done one of these campaigns; are there certain ground rules?

Sounds interresting. Now the question, what qualifies? I had basicially three bigger diorams with all that downfall themaitc in mind... only problem, all theree have to be based in southern part of Germany.
So I think I have to look for annther callenge. Two figures, small base. Would that be enough? I think I have to adapt my figures, pretty much resculpt them. So no easy glue together, paint and enyoy project.

Hi friends,
Just checking how is going here and if any decision to proceed with this campaign...
IMO, it should be ''Battle of Berlin'' campaign, and starting around April 2015 !
Cheers
