Nice work on the Panzer IVE!

Not sure I'm going to finish my Sherman on time, we'll see how things go tonight.

I already posted photos of my finished build in the campaign gallery, but I finished the base today and thought I post photos in the tread before it shuts down. Again, great campaign and really wonderful work by everyone!

Dang Micheal, your build looks even more amazing with the vignette! I'm going to be asking you for some advice when it comes time for me to tackle the weathering on some US armor

Hello Bob,
I have a Marine Corp campaign starting in December that will included aircraft, vehicles, figures, and anything else that will fit as being a part of the Marines.
I am allowing the time line to run from the Roman Empire to Present day.
You might want to take a look when I post the rules tonight in the "How about a Marine Corp Campaign"

About Blitz 4 Russia I am still working on the time line, But here is some of what I have: The models must be from June 22, 1941 to when Russian troops reached German proper territory: ie East Prussia, Eastern - German Boarder ,etc.
I am saving the battle for Germany for one of the last Blitz's.
I am glad you enjoyed the last Blitz and I hope you will enjoy the next one.
Cheers,
Bruce

Hi Bruce,
many thanks for a great campaign, I found it most enjoyable.

As for Blitz 4, I'm not sure as I tend to go for things with an antipodean flavour, but you never know

Once again many thanks

cheers

Hi Bruce. Glad to see you back with us again. I hope all is going well with your health.

I wanted to tell you thank you for the ribbon. It looks good with the other two Blitzkrieg ribbons!!

Now I just need to try and figure out what I want to build for Blitzkrieg IV.

Thanks again.
Randy
