Goodness I missed so many. It will be easier when we narrow our build down, which is getting harder to count the votes.

B of B - 9

Blitz in West - 9

North Africa - 3

Barbarossa - 1

Manny, I wasn't sure Tiger I's were prominent, but I would have to think that there was at least 1 there.

Well, worst case is I go with the Jagdpanzer or a Panther.

 wbill76:

I will do something that I very rarely do and that is show interest in a GB. My vote would be BITW. Beer

 

HOLY SMOKES! Bill considering a GB?

Hey, can I change my vote to BITW to increase the odds that he'll be a part of it?

I will only participate in the GB if the BITW wins, otherwise I will bow out. Wink.

Some corrections/additions need to be made though to the eligible German BITW list assuming that we are saying that the GB only applies to the Battle of France timeframe (meaning end of May 1940).

You would only see Pz III E-G in that campaign, the H didn't start production until Nov 1940. Only G's with 3.7cm guns would have saw combat, the first 5.0cm equipped Pz IIIs were produced in July 1940.

StuG III As saw service as did the Bison I and Pzjager I.

Pz 38t would be limited to the A-C variants but mostly As or Bs since the C didn't start production until May '40.

The full list of eligible German gear for the BoF campaign is quite extensive and there are a lot of potential subjects/kits to choose from out there now than there used to be for sure.

HTH! Beer

Everyone has to think of the benifits for voting for the BLITZKRIEG IN THE WEST!  Not only are there several contries and several of there vehicles that can be represented, theres more!  Think about all the contributions that their where, such as:  French Fries, French Onion Soup, French Kissisng, French Lingerie, French Actress, French Maids, and French Bikinies.

These are only a few of the things one should consider when casting ones vote.  Vote for the BLITZ and keep the city of lights lit!

I'm in only if it's the battle or blitz in the west. I have a beautiful Pz. IV B that I really need to put into the panzer grey and brown scheme, I really need to do this.

Howdy Bill, are we going to have you along on this GB if it's blitz in the west. well for me I'm involved in two at the moment and starting a third in the next few weeks so even with a tight schedule I would be making a big effort to run with an early war GB. 

Well I never asked how long this one would be running but I would presume about six months depending on how Eric wants to set it up.

Reading through the thread it would be great to work with people who I have done GB's with before and of course it would be a treat to work with you Bill again as it's a few years since we worked together, could be fun. 

Now if Bill Plunk comes in as well then it would be great to see him participate in his Fi rst GB.

Well it's almost 3am so I'm off to the leaba (Irish f or bed)to do my usual of falling asleep watching family guy.

Allowing for the time difference if anybody wants to mail me the results I'm at

terry35@gmail.com

 

Well good night to all and I hope for good news in the morning.

 

Terry.
