Well, the good news is funds have just doubled so i can get some more of them churchills :p

Bad news is i still haven't decided

Thinking of going for the markIV and mark VII though. Along with 3 avres and 3 crocodiles

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Gotta love an AVRE! 

[petercooman]

You don't say

Guess i will be taking 2 normal avres, and a 3rd one with a fascine.

Anyone got a piccie of that one?

[petercooman]

Btw, is it normal i want to ditch the whole lot and start 8th army and DAK :p

No - that's not normal. At all.

Normal is that you do this - and the 8th Army & DAK    

[petercooman]

OK thought there was something wrong :p

gonna start with these guys first though, i just love the churchill too much, and they were only a late addition to north africa...

Normal AVRE


I don't have the fascine carrying one - but I'm sure I've seen a pic, have you looked at madaxeman's?

The REAL Churchill, of course, is on a horse, either leading an army of the Grand Alliance, or getting into trouble in the Sudan.

Since a facine is just a big bundle of logs it's hadly the most complicated item to make up and add to a Churchill methinks.

That's true

Better go shrink some wood with the shrinkray in the garden shed :p

Does anyone know if fascines were only transported by the engineers (so on AVRE's) or did they add them to normal tanks too? I think i can recall seeing one on a normal churchill in a piccie once, but i'm not sure.

Have a browse through the Woodland Scenics range - I think that's where I got mine. I believe it's the stuff they use for OO reeds etc.
