I know I'm jumping the gun since we have 2 active campaigns but I'd like to see a M113 campaign which would include any vehicle on the M113 chassis. Maybe after the end of the Incoming campaign.

All M113 FOV including M548, Chapparel, etc. Even the M113AS and other stretches. Could even include YPR, AIFV and AIFV. Maybe the M59 if someone is daring.
I agree on the timing. I travel for at least half the month so a good long build suits me. Plus the Abrams build wraps up soon but the Incoming goes through September.

Oh God... The completion date would have to be waaaaaay out there for me to jump in/on this. Funny that you should bring this up Paul.... I was just lookin' at the stack of 113 FOV's that I have last night.... With any luck, I might even get to see one tooling around on Saturday too....

Now you mention this as a campaign, after I have started Old Faithful's detailing.
If it ends after November I'm in, probably an Australian version or ACAV.

HOOAH!
Put me on the list!
("Abrams ID" and "Incoming" got me started with campaigns, I must say I really like it and it keeps me highly motivated on the building!)

Howdy all,
Wow!.....a 'Bucket' Campaign?? Gee, I sure would love to jump on the bandwagon, but my plate is soooo full now that I'd be trying to fit 10 pounds of 'taters in a 5 pound bag!
But, I've been considering a rather unique M113-based mortar carrier for my ongoing "Incoming!!" Campaign, and if the rules of said build would allow a multiple entry, then I would like to be considered by the Build's 'power's that be'.
Tread.
P.S. If you have any interest in the exact nature of said M113. Please, just stop by the "Incoming!!" thread and check it out.

I'm in if its late summer or early fall. I'll either build a M113A1that I drove or the forerunner of the M901 (ITV) it was a M113A1with the TOW luancher on a pedestil in the cargo hatch. I think I might have a basic TOW system laying around somewhere.

I'm thinking about September 1. I know it's a ways off but it will give a chance to close out the Incoming campaign which I'm sure it tying up a lot of people.

G'day all,
So the whole idea is to build an M113? Can one I've already finished count?
Cheers Jason
