hello Matthew,
the dio must have a tank,truck apc,etc.you can not just have figures in it.you could have a artillary piece with the figures,but not just a mortor or machine gun.
cheers,
Bruce

Bruce, check this one - Italeri 6400: German 7.5 cm L. Howitzer. with crew. I'm not sure if this is what you seek, but this is only one I've found.

http://www.italeri.com/product.aspx?item=6400S

If you would not be able to find it in US give me a kick - I could check if it is available in Poland.

The Campaign Rules are not quite right. The first line indicates the campaign is for tanks only. Later on, it says any vehicles is ok.

Great, the time line allows the German occupation of the Netherlands!

Gotta see if I have time for this one, but I do have an idea already

hello Gary,
yes you are right.it does say tanks and then vehicles are o.k.with all the stuff Matt has been going through,some times you make a small error when you are typing up the rules.i am sure that it will be changed when he has the time.
cherrs,
Bruce

I've just officialy enlisted. I received ordered TK-3 and some figures for a diorama. Now it has to go to a closet and wait for campaign start. This TK-3 is very tiny beggar...

Hi guys,

Question: would an AT gun on a diorama be allowed as well? So no tank or vehicle?

hello Martin,
i think that a stand alone gun is not in the spirit of this campaign.of course Matt may rule in favor of stand alone guns,with no vehicle.
Matt,what do you think?
cheers,
Bruce

Ok well let me know. Otherwise I'll build a Pzkfw II, or maybe a diorama with both the Pz II and the AT gun

hello Martin,
the idea of a Pz 2 with a AT gun sounds neat.is the AT gun in ambush against the Pz 2,or with it against enemy forces.
i have not heard from Matt,so i can not tell you either way about your other idea.
cheers,
Bruce

Martin I don't see why not allow a stand alone AT gun but remember you have to tie it into the theme some way

hello Matt,
thanks for the picture,he looks like a tough bird.i think that the campaign is only 6 months long,it should be a mission.have you decided if the Finnish-Soviet War and the Soviet invastion of Poland will be included.if not how about a second campaign starting 1 month after this one.
we could call it Blitzkrieg 2:War in the East.this should be a Operation lasting 1 year.it would include the Finnish-Soviet War,the Soviet invastion of Poland,and the German invastion fo the Soviet Union.the dates could be Nov.30,1939 to July 1944.this will included battle for Moscow,Stalingrad,and Kurst. ending at the pre-war border.
we then do a operation for North Africa and Italy that would last 10 months.
this it just somthing to think about.
You also need to make a campaign Banner and Ribbon.Jim(goldenpony)might help you out doing the ribbon and banner.
cheers,
Bruce
