I would be up for another campaign

I would say September or October for a starting date and i wouldn't think we'd need more than 6 months IMO
Thanks,

For example? I mean, would it mean tanks made during the Cold War Era but not used by that country?
I need more details but would consider this one too!!

Yes Jeff, made or used during the Cold War, by any country during that period.
For example a T-34 in Vietnamese colours is ok, a M47 used by Belgium or Germany is ok too.
Centurion by IDF is ok too.
Since you guys will pick the start and end date, but I'm guessing late 2012, right ?

I'm sure I could drum up a Leopard or two! Late this year, trailing into 2013 would suit best.

Hi John,
great idea

now I can do my Chieftain Mk8 that I served
on from ´83 to ´86 from tamiya and Castoff. Or a Tiran 6 partially scratch
built on a Trumpeter T62.

Start date as far as I´m concerned any time.

Count me in. As long as the start date is later in the year I should be good to go. I'm not sure what I'll do yet, but it'll probably be Nato or Warsaw Pact.

John I'm confused what is a Cold War MBT, I usually stick to WW II stuff but sometime I venture a little into more modern times
And I would have to get something to build stash is all 1/35 WW II

Hi John,
I´m 95% sure that I´ll do this, just got to get some Friuls and maybe a figure.
