Come to the Cent Side, my Pretties! Look deep into the 6 Day War and see that you really, really, really need Centurions!

They mocked me! They scoffed! But ultimately I will have my revenge when the Centurion becomes the best seller in the Pendraken catalogue!

Sunray your correct :D
the Isreali's had changed over to the American Helmet and the Egyptian infantry had soviet style helmets,the Jordanian infantry used the English helmet I was going to use the WW2 American infantry for the Isreali infantry and WW2 British infantry for the Jordanian infantry.

Sean - would Argentine infantry with the FN be suitable for 1966 Israelis ?   The WW2 Commando pack also has nice figures in berets.

Yes Lemmey
But most of the anti tank in 1967 was for both sides  the Belgium RL-83 Blindicide bazooka. In 10mm this would be indistinguishable from the WWII US Bazooka's  the Jordanian troops used the M20 super bazooka.
The Jordanian troops are Centurion tanks M113  and 25pdr and quad tractors the only thing I think they will need would be the M42 anti aircraft. For the Isreali's have Centurions M48a3s ( Magach range) M51 Isherman,M50 Sherman and M1 super Sherman. The M3 will have to have their guns mounted in the front windscreen and have their machine gun rings off. Their Artillery are M7 priests and 25Pdr and quad tractors also a M3 TCM-20 will need to be made.
For the ArabRepublic (Egypt) you can use the T34/85 or T54/55 or IS-3M will need to have some ZSU-57-2 made but then the infantry can travel in BTR-152 transporters and BTR-50PK the Artillery are the old 122 and 152mm WWII model howitzers.the self propelled company is the old SU-1100M from the WWII range

Cheers big ears

Trying out a new designer with the BTR152, AMX13, IS3m, I'm looking at converting the jumbo sherman?????

Sounds good to me
In the beginning there was plastic card and glue
And behold a Centurion was created

has all the makings of a new religion ;D ;D ;D ;D

Sean67

Right then back to the topic  :o
So how many think it would be feasible with a few additions to start a 10mm 6 day war range this would then only need a few additions to expand into Yom Kippur war the Arabs still mainly had T-55's but then had the addition of BMP1's and a few other exotic soviet equipments Isreal started using the M113 instead of the M3 but mainly kept the Centurians and M48's.
With the infantry by this time both Egypt and Syria were mostly kitted out in light Soviet order.

Think of black pajamas with pith helmet, traditional nva pith helmet (i would add picture but do not know how to!!!!)

ok
how about?
T62, T72 and T64 A&B T80 (modify the mbt's to do later variants Reactive Armour ETC)
BMP 1 (AT3) Sagger then modified to do other BMP 1 Variants
BTR 60 (open top) then modified to do the Variants
T55 Hull Modified into engineer vehicles
BRDM 2 then modified into other variants
optional
Bridging equipment and Helicopters if not Available in plastic 

That would give you enough vehicles to do a game using Warsaw Pact

On that list I'd rather see the BTR60PB - by far the most common variant.
