But why the Char 2C when tghere far more important vehicles missing - like anything post war. Instead we get a vehicle that saw no combat, of which 10 (yes 10) were built.

Because post-war vehicles are in hand elsewhere.  So there.   :P

Re Char 2C.
I was of the understanding they were all destroyed by air attack whist being transported by rail.

I thought the German's claimed they'd taken them out, when actually the French destroyed them themselves?  I might be mistaken though.

R-35's definately used in Sicily in counter attacks on the Gela bridgehead.

Scene:- a garret somewhere,

A large sigh bounces around the walls as GrumpyOldMan reaches for a much corrected piece of paper headed "Shopping List" and start furiously crossing out entries and making new ones..........

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Another lashing to our international trade balance. Definitely will have to sneak some past the SWMBO radar  :D :D.

Thank you

Cheers

That could be tricky with the Chars, they're massive...   :D

Excellent stuff, I love the Renault!  It's gonna do very well for early war stuff!  The VBCW is a nice angle as well, but as it stands I have no more time available for new projects, what with the gameclub and all.

As my only VBCW force that is painted and ready to roll right now is the airforce  :o there in lies a plan ;)

never getting a full weekend to hit the painting/basing regime is turning out to be a pain (i'm a part time carer)
