                        I said WWII because it had the most variety for camo and such.  Modern armor is just... tan... not to much fun.  But I like the X-wing idea, I always thought it would be cool, because, why do nations have to stop being nations once we get into space.  Why wouldnt the Us have space fighters?

                        This sounds cool.  Unfortunately I have no idea what the color schemes were for WWII armies.  But theres a whole group of people a forum click away that can help with that.  What would be the start and end dates?  And can anyone make one of those cool icons for the signature line?

                        sounds good to mee its settled then one rule in the story of what ever you are building, the good side gets the allies colors, bad side gets axis colors. Does that sound fair to everyone

                        If that would work better for some and get them to join in on the fun I would not be against it. would be kinda cool to see an X-wing in WWII US Navy or US Army colors.

                        How about a silly or odd theme, like... Mechs painted up in WWII schemes.  or kits made to look girly, something like that

                        Ok, what do you want to build? Star Wars, Trek, Macross?

                        I vote for some sort of armored suit (of course Laugh [(-D] ).
