Hello Mathew, in the mean time i´ve found out that it really was a paper panzer. Even if a `tad impractical´, only question now is, is this going to go, or do we move everything to "what if No.2".
@Sal: what are you trying to show us, your picture hasn´t come out?

Well, Paul I am already a go for "What if #2", and if this takes off I will see what I can scratch up.

Hi Sal, don't want to sound like a rivet-counter but that Befehspanzer Tiger(P) actually existed and was produced for the commander of a unit equipped with the Elefant Tank Destroyers.
I think the problem with this campaign will be defining how far the 'What If' factor can go.
The German's especially where great at recycling there Armour back through the workshops look at the Hybrid Tiger1's or the Panther G's with Ausf D turrets. The Entwicklung series of AFV's all used common component (based around the Panther) so a E-50 with a Panther turret is not un-thinkable? (look how many Panther D turrets with zimmerit where left at the factory) ... so within reason I think some amount of flexibility be allowed on fitting existing equipment/weapons etc... eg...kugelblitz turret on say a modified E-series (with in reason) not trying to step on anybody's toes here Scott, just trying to help.

Assuming that this is about "paper panzers"... where P-P would be those never-actually-built / paper napkin planned panzers and perhaps partially-done prototypes (such as that E-100 chassis), I would expect that this could include those many waffentrager kits which trumpeter (and now D has entered into this fray, too) has put out...

IF waffentragers are a "YES", I have one of those Trumpy things just itching to become all built and painted and stuff!

Or, yeah, an E-100 could become a completed item on the shelf, too...

Hey Scott!

Have you submitted this yet? The schedule is getting quite full and I'd hate to see you lose momentum.

Sorry if I am prying.








~ Jeff



Not yet mate, been really busy with work and real life this last week. I will work up some rules and regs this comming week and get it submitted.








A whole month has come and gone (and then some) since July 1st... do we have a proposal submitted? Need some help?

Schedule is getting fuller & fuller by the day.

Yeah, I mean what else am I to do with my time? I've built real street cars (too expensive) and I've done all the weekend warriors things and won my fair share of games and championships. I raced HO cars for over 13 years and reached the pinnacle enough to be satisfied. I have a bunch of 1/16th RC tanks to build, but they just don't do it for me as 1/35th does.

I know I am not a Picasso like some of you are, but that's alright with me. It just means I have room to get better, just like in all my other hobbies I once had.

I do hope our Sgt. Hulka is okay as it's been like a week to have seen him here and we have a few pending Campaigns to be approved. I do hope he gets the JEEP Campaign launched as November will be here in no time!

Oh, and I'd like to be able to build this E-50 I have so I do hope to see the Campaign get going too!

So are we talking about ONLY products of Deutschland in the period 1933-47
Or can we include the two new heavy-weights just coming out ie Meng's A39 Tortoise and DML's T28?

And how are you expecting to differentiate this from the 'what-if 2" campaign. 'Fewer' zombies?

Totally agree Duncan ... I am wondering if Sudzonic has forgotten about this idea ,,he was on yesterday so thats my best bet right now .

If no one steps up then i'll throw my hand up ,,hell this stuff is right up my alley and there's no way i want to see this campaign go bye bye .

So if there aint one then i'll do it .

If you don't Phill, I'll do it. I'm not swapping out engines so I do have the time.

What's one more under the old belt to do, huh?


Besides, I still have that E-50 to build WITH an aluminum barrel too.

Well, Scott checked in here yesterday and left no responce to this what he started.

Any objections to Phill picking up the pieces and getting this submitted?

I want to see this get approved as it does have the support of the qualified number of modelers.

Hay guys I must apologize for not getting back to you all on this campaign, life and other commitments have been getting in the way lately. I am also in the process of setting up my own business and it is taking up a lot of my time at the moment, I will fill you all in on the details very soon about what i am doing .

I am more than happy for someone else to take the rains on this campaign as I am not sure that I will have the time to lead this one so if someone else wants to take over you are more than welcome to do so.

Scott.

Eventually you will have to learn to finish what you started, like the "Rapid Reconnaissance Campaign" which is over 2 years old.

Good luck with your "business".

Well, this thing has sat dormant for too long so after checking with Gary...
...I went ahead and submitted it so the idea and the support doesn't die off.


Hope no one minds!

Thanks Gary! I hope all of those originally interested will flock back to here.

I see you altered the submitted start/finish dates, which is alright as I do not know what the schedule is like but I do believe 6 months is more than enough time.
