Been a long time since Skoda built a tank - unless you count the Octavia....

APCs and IFVs for me, e.g.:

M-114A1E1
M-113 with TOW missile launcher - just need the launcher sculpted, and a hole drilled into the existing M-113 (I can do that, if needed)
M-901 (late-TOW M-113 variant)
BMP-1
BTR-60PB
Marder 1
HS-30 with 20mm
Spz Kurz with 20mm
FV-432 APC, and mortar variant, plus the FV-438 Swingfire

M-151 Mutt jeep
Munga jeep
BRDM-2 scoutcar

Various tanks too:

M41
M47
T-62
T-64
T-72

Leopard 1 and follow-on variants with bolt-on turret armor
Jagdpanzer Kanone
Jagdpanzer Rakete with SS-11, and/or HOT, or TOW
Luchs 8 x8 armored car

Centurion - not sure which marks, but surely the 105mm for the Danes, Swiss, British (probably an earlier variant too, with a 90mm? gun, or so)

Obviously, Cold War era troops too, including prone figures for troops on the defensive.

The Centurion III had a 20 pounder which was an 84mm gun.

Centurion III - NO SUCH thing - it's Centurion 3. Most converted to Mk 5, which is the major build model. 2nd Major build is the Mk 7, with a longer hull for more fuel. As far as I can see the last build was a Mk 8, still with 20 pdr.

All 20pdr tanks could, and probably were up-gunned with the L7 during the 60's, becoming /2, many were up-armoured - these are /1. If both were done then the Mark was changed, I'm not going to try and explain that...

Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

And the Swedes had 105 mm armed Centurions, alongside the Strv 103 (or S-Tank), so we'll be needing some of these as well, I think . . .

Oh, and a Pbv 302. And probably some others.

Cheers, Martyn

Oh, and I still want an M40 155 mm GMC for my 50's B-movie sci-fi thing . . .

Think the Brits used them as well, so others may find it useful . . .  ;)

Cheers, Martyn

The Artillery will be last as unless you play "Flames of War" where the insist that your guns with a range of about 7 miles sit on table never managed to get any artillery on table when we used WRG back in the Stone Age of Wargaming ;D ;D ;D

Also will be putting a picture on later of a master just for FSN :D :D :D :D
