 Hercmech:

 

In the spirit of limericks:

There once was a man from Berlin

Who thought in the East he could win

Fought Reds in their ships

And froze of his lips

But now calls us MOJO's his kin

 

 

Yes

 

Then there was JeffW from FSM

And MOJOS from all around made fun of him

Until Aaron, cold as ice

demanded we all play nice

And as for JeffW, no once else mocked him

..ask and you shall receive.

 

A macho young Vance was playing with fire,

when he shipped the gadget, the single wing flyer.

The gadget is still missing you know

Herr Marshal will have Vance's fiddley-bits for ho-napping his HO,

Soon, Vance's voice will be two octaves higher.

The Navigator

New reason why Vance hasn't finished his HO-

Spent too much time convincing FSM staff to change their KV-1 to Canadian Vampire!

...just caught that one Navigator! Yes Yes, you see I actually have a 1/48 Vampire in the stash (Hobbycraft) that I have on the "soon" list... but as everyone has noticed I sometimes require inspiration (or jackboots) to finish a project, so FSM has graciously placed a Vampire up there as motivation.

Evidence mein herren:

As you can see, it does not yet have it's "mission markers" in place yet. These will need to be applied prior to Operation Navigate South commences...

Manstein's revenge

I have grown tired of waiting...I am sending a kampgruppe in to retrieve the HO by force...it is currently mobilizing...using striking postal workers to entrain armour...

 http://youtu.be/lbXabOLVELI

Herr Feldmarshall:  Good to see that you have artillery support.  However, wasn't anything other than French artillery available?  A battery of U.S. M-109's would, IMAO, be much more preferable. Huh?

Apparently, just the threat of Kampfgruppe MOJO was enough to force the Canadian Postal Service to release the HO. Big SmileWow
