OldenBUA - yesa the late shermans would be good.

The US M2 Medium is a waste of time, Polish TP-7 is a clone of Vickers 6 tonner - and or T-26

We do need Chaffee, and other comon used vehicles.

IanS

Ian, why is the M2 medium a waste of time? And though the TP-7 may be a clone of the Vickers, what about the rest of the Polish equipment and soldiers?

I have no use for a Chaffee however.

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

M2 - not ever used in combat - and not built in any numbers. I made same comment about the Vickers Independant, still made 

There are many more commomn vehicles which are needed - M24 is of use late WWII through Korea to the 1990's in a few South African armies, similarly late war Shermans.

Ofcourse, actual use and production numbers don't always have an impact on a wargamers needs. There are many that like 'what-if' gaming, and it seems to be a bit more popular these days as well.

However, from a sales point of view, I think that 'regular' WW2 kit should be higher on the list. It's what most people will be looking for first. I could be wrong though!

Thats the Chaffe ?? If so, it was used in Norway up to the 90s as well... Latest use was two squadrons in the NG along with about 100 EA of the White scout car. 

[OldenBUA]

Yes, the M24 is the Chaffee. That's already on the designers list though, so should make an appearance sometime.

So you can stop asking for it Ian.

I can certainly see your point, but a Chaffee I can get from at least two other manufacturers (though I am sure not in the same, fine quality I expect from Pendraken  ). But as Olden pointed out, there are an awful lot of gamers who do what-ifs, and also in our little niche,  supply can make its own demand. Thus I believe Leon would be well-served to offer up a range of AFVs that are off the beaten track and not available from other makers. But of course, still sell Chaffees!

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

I wuz just making a point.......

[Texas Jack]

Yeah, it´s no problem. I would just like something other than vanilla from time to time 

[Dazza]

Baled out tank crews please.

We already have US Marine and Japanese baled out tank crews.  Can we have the same for British, German and Russian crews?

It is possible that a generic tank crew could be produced.  Overalls and bare headed would suit. 

BTW, does anyone have a picture of the Japanese Baled out crew?  The US team have their distinctive tank helmets on and cannot be mistaken for any other nationality.

Crew members for open-topped SP artillery would be helpful. The vehicles look a bit naked at the moment.

I'll second that

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Why not just use the available artillery crew, It wat I dose....

Packs of artillerymen would be good. Leon has done that for me as a one-off but a proper code for artillerymen would be useful - if that's practical. May depend what else is in the mould?

Trimming the bases off to fit in vehicles isn't much of a chore IMHO.

I was after artillery crew as I feel crew served weapons need a few more figures on the base than the two or three they come with but vehicle crew would improve the look of the open topped artillery vehicles right enough.
