Hello all,

Just a brief introduction from myself. My name is Jake, I'm 23 , currently serving as an armourer in the RAF. Born in  Grimsby in Lincolnshire and I'm currently in the process of finishing a German 44' Panzer Division and starting a full 42' Russian Tank Corps!

My main interests are predominantly WW2 on all fronts, however with my recent affiliation with the Grimsby Wargames Society, I am now taken in by AWI side of things!

I look forward to contributing on these forums and maybe arranging a Rapid Fire! game of two!

Hi Jake

I'm from the North of Lincolnshire too - but now live on the other side of the country!

Good work on the tanks!

From seeing some of the battle reports from the Grimsby club, you should be in for some big games!

Welcome Jake.

Stuff the AWI, how does a 42 Soviet tank corps fare against a 44 panzer division? Did you go for t34 or something more exotic? I favour a t35 and t28 mix.


So far, with a historic lack of success.  :)
