Nice to see this feature finally available to preserve all the great efforts of the campaign members. Thanks to Stefan for a great campaign and impeccable leadership. The only down side was remembering my Trumpeter M26A1 kit was not the most user friendly kit that I've ever built.
Cheers,
Jan

Agreed thanks to Stefan for including me even if real life got in the way of finishing and for a smoothly run campaign. A pleasure to be in such fine company.

Great job Stefan. I really enjoyed the history lessons and getting to see all of the different projects. It was one of the few campaigns I actually finished last year.

Thanks again for the campaign and putting this up. You'll have to put up an article how to make those cool color progress grids that lists the group members.

Matthew thanks for getting this one up!
Thanks folks, it was a fun campaign and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Read a lot of books on the Korean war in parallel (I think there were about 4 or 5...).
The only negative is that my campaigns for the future won't last a whole year anymore: there were about 6 months when hardly anything went. Less is more! 6 or 7 months with extensions of 1 or 2 months are much more effective I think. Just a tip for other future campaign leaders...
Mecanix, you're the vicim of my totally arbitrary honorary ribbon...
Greg, it's quite simple and crude actually: I did it in MS Excel, made screenshots and copied those into Paint and saved them as jpg... I know we could learn a lot from Jan Etal on the chart subject!
Cheers!
Stefan

Great build and topic!
I hope I'll be able to join the fray on an eventual
"Korean War Campaign- 2"
