I'm typing the rules and regs. Spending a lot of time trying to come up with a ribbon.

I was thinking of starting the CMK kit but will wait for the campaign.
The reason I'm asking if it fits into this build is because there is a lot of speculation as to what this vehicle was really used for.

Just wished Dragon or AFV Club did that version.
That Italeri kit is hard to find...

The bergertiger is fine.
I may not be doing the D9R. Either I got a short run kit, for the review(which I believe) or the entire kit is lacking. I am considering HobbyFan's M9.

Would give me a good reason to build the Buffalo EROC.

All are welcome.

Given the timelines -- yes, I would sign up for this. Currently my choice is either an Italeri Berge Tiger or Panther. I know somewhere in the stash is a Berge IV as well.
Just to check -- do bridgelayers, demolition vehicles, ammo transporters qualify?
Cheers

Yes, those qualify. So long as it is not a tractor trailer for hauling tanks.

Cool, that widens the choices then. Thanks Matt. Cheers, Tat

I thought I would bring this one back up to see if if there was still any interest in taking off. There has been some talk over on Armor/AFV about the M-8A1 Cargo Tractor, so I dug mine out. I got the Modelcraft kit and some AFV wheels/suspension and AFV M-41 tracks to dress it up a little bit. I have to admit this has been in the stash way too long, so this will be my first build for this Campaign. Don M.

I might go with a ICM BergePanther, with 1000 leftovers from Dragon's Panther D & F. Can be an interesting project.

I would crawl into this with a Dragon Bergepanzer Tiger(P) kit and a bit of extras - maybe add the zimm, too. Give me the prod to get this one out of the box and done.

Bob, that's a really nice kit.
I worked on it a few years ago.

I'll be writing up the campaign information, over the next couple of days. All of you have chosen interesting builds. I am now torn between the Meng D9R and a Tasca Sherman with flail.

If I do the D9R, I'll be using Voyager's slate armor. I will likely go all out.

Please elaborate. I thought the proposal was at the beginning of this thread. If not, is that what I will be writing? I'll include all of the rules and regulations regarding the campaign. Including, but not limited to: the start/end date and what builds qualify.

That's the right text with rules & regulations.
You just need to hit the "Propose a Campaign" button(Campaign tab - just below the description text ), fill in the dates, scale, rules, small Campaign description , we already have the minimum interested members
You did good creating the thread, but the proposal needs to be sent.
Here's the tutorial here for some Guidelines.
If you need any help just let me know.
