The advance to continue to push back on the Evil Empire. As soon as any drone is within 8km this group will scatter. Each will move to areas to hide.

Thank you Mike, just showing different things,

PG,
I am sure that you have seen this. But on the small, teeny tiny chance you haven’t….

M48H/CM-11 "Brave Tiger"
SKU: T1

I just ran across 4 trays/drawers of the Republican Guard. I found a bunch of Iraqis from Desert Shield/Desert Storm.
I will have to see if I can put them all out on the table. I will need to look for the desert/tan cloth.
It I find it, May need to have the Iraqis fight the SADF

Thanks, Chris, I have seen it and I would hop right on it but for the fact that it's an M48 turret, and early one, at that. And the barrel jacket, of course. Would like GHQ to reissue their original M60, but people wouldn't buy it, so I have to make do with what I have. Members if the forum have been most kind to let me know when they saw some for sale.

Foxbat,
I will try … get a break-through… send a hundred down 1-2 highways to push 15-20-25 miles

PG told me to post pictures, he wasn’t quoted, ‘that he would attack me’. Following his suggestion.
SADF, G-6 155mm artillery ready.

Nice work Chris! Are the boats part of a bridging unit?

Redleg,
I haven’t thought that far ahead. Put a couple of batteries and electric motors to do some fishing at night. Who needs to attack at night? The camouflage works great when in the water, see, the fish don’t know that you are there.
Boats were from Shapeways. I think of assault river crossing. But pontoon bridge would work.
