Hi pyrman64 -- it would have to be guns only, but I guess I could stretch the definition to include AAA. What did you have in mind?

I was thinking of something like the German 8t half-tracks with 2cm Vierling 38 or 3,7cm Flak37, or even a M42 Duster?

Mike: I didn't see anything in the rules here or on part II about partly completed models. I've an AFV Club M40 SPG I started for Stikpusher's Korean War GB and didn't quite finish. She's mostly built but I haven't added some small parts or painted anything but the interior yet. Plus I want to modify some infantrymen into a crew and do a small diorama. Not sure when I'll be able to re-start on her though.

Please let me know if she's kosher or not!

hey mike

will probably do the 1/35 DANA 8x8. the PLA DF-21 ICBM is on a semi trailer but it does have an eractor to the vertical to launch so that should count.

Welcome to the third round of the self-propelled artillery group build,

"Have Gun Will Travel"

Rules as before, any era or nationality, any scale or brand, OOB or AM, which addresses the theme of self-propelled artillery, this being specifically tube and rocket artillery -- so long as it drives itself it's in.

Staring August 1st 2013, running one year to a close on July 31st 2014.

There have been a number of expressions of interest in resuming this theme, so please drop by and let me know what you'll be working on. I'll be finishing my Trumpeter AS-90 with etch.

There'll be a Roll Call list, badges and an Honour Wall for finished projects, as always.

Looking forward to registrations!

Cheers, Mike/TB379
