I can't believe we're taking bookings for late next year already! Still, assuming the world doesn't end I'm sure I could dig up some recon elements from my stash...

Yeah I'd be on for that, it's five years since the last Recce campaign
That was confined to ww2 the pics are here

Could be very interesting with modern vehicles added to the mix

Count me toward your ten to start the campaign! Recon is a great idea!
I'd figure out a subject later, depending on my mood closer to the start, but I like that Humvee idea.

I like the idea of this campaign, let's see how things go for me in the other campaigns I'm enlisted in and I'll see if I can commit to this one.

Quick question, is this campaign going to be open to fictional, theoretical, what-if, paper, prototypes, etc. ?

Scott, That date sounds good to me, I should be wrapped up with most of the other campaigns for this year and I'll be ready to roll with a Tamyia Sd.Kfz.232(8Rad), that I have in the stash saving for this 1

Glad to have you back Scott, and that should be enough time to come up with something...

I still have some what-if types of recon armor that I would consider if that's acceptable.

Also out of curiosity, it is my understanding that some tanks were used in recon roles, such as the Sheridan. Would this be acceptable?

Thanks Sal.

To answer your question, anything like Sheridan's, CVRT scimitar/Scorpion/sabre, M3 Bradley would be absolutely fine.
