You bet guys, let's make this the campaign Noel wanted to see
Bob: Lol, I'll make sure to watch my proverbial footing and avoid the stinky stuff
Sal: No worries bud, I'm still trying to decide on which build I'm going with myself. That Tiger you traded for would have been a rare beast in Africa

Noel:
Thank you for starting this campaign and good luck in your move.
Jeremy:
Thanks for taking over. I have not made up my mind either, so I think I just may do both kits I have on hand. The Cyber-Hobby White Box Blitz 4x2 and the Dragn Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf F1(F).

Alright gents, it looks like we have three stragglers who still need to enlist, and about 1/4 of us have decided on a build for this campaign. Not a bad start guys, Let's see if the rest of us can choose a build by V-Day

I have just about memorized the instructions to the Blitz 4x2. Mind you, none of the plastic parts pockets have been opened. Only through my imagination have I completed Section 1 (wheels) and determined that building wheels, paint , paint tires and put together is the way to go.
You can't say that I have not done my homework.

Hi Jeremy,
I have just enlisted, I couldn't resist doing something for the desert. The PzIV Workhorse campaign is ending, so this is a perfect new campaign to start (I made a rule that I only enlist in 3 campaigns at a time). I will probably do a few Braille Scale models, mostly softskins for a change. When I have sorted out what I am doing, I will post the appropriate starting pictures.
Good luck with the campaign, with over 30 participants already you are going to be a busy man.
All the best,
Paul

Count me in. I am new to these campaigns, and have enlisted in several so far. When I saw this I thought cool I have a perfect kit for this the DAK Panzer 1 with a set of figures which should make a nice little vignette/Dio. Semper Fi.

Aww.. Does this mean I can't use M3 half-tracks and Walker Bulldogs like in 'Play Dirty'? Great film thoroughly recommend it.

Nice
Always had a soft spot for Rommel
In fact I'm currently working on this:
More pics here
Rommel at the Atlantik Wall I'm actually much further as the figure is more or less finished. Only need to do some touch ups.
But I more or less decided to do another DAK built. And this campaign is actually a nice motive to start building. Plus I haven't done a campaign for a long time. And I already ordered the vehicle as well. I was planning to do a British Dingo in use by the DAK while escaping the Kasserine pass. got everything in house except for the Vehicle and the PE.
Nice campaign idea I'm in
