My thanks to everyone for enjoying this thread. Almost 1300 views and not a single deletion even for the discussion of cannons which was in questionable taste. Larso has issues but we humour him.
I did finally receive the correct artillery piece but did not learn my lesson and look in the box. It was only while opening it at home that I wondered if Brett had tricked me with another set. He did not and I am very happy with the result. An advantage of picking up an older piece is that by the time you buy it the price being charged appears a bargain! Larso married later and I think his wife took the same view. {sm4}
I do like the WW 2 German armour - late Western Front and early DAK but they are vast ranges. Once I started I would go Tiger, Panther, Jagdpanther, Stug, Panzer IV and that would be the better part of 1200 dollars and I would then have to look at the desert vehicles. Then I would start on the figures and it would be on. The only advantage is that I do not really care for the German half tracks so I could avoid those. Anyway - back to work for me.
Regards
Jack
