I Love A Good Old Convoy (1 Viewer)

[arnhem44mad]

I don't know about anyone else but I love seeing a good convoy made of King and Country vehicles!

Obviously XXX Corps would be my probable faourite, but I also love American Convoys!

I have the D-Day 45 Sherman with machine gunner on top, the ambulance jeep, patrol jeep, Jimmy truck, Winter Halftrack, Winter Sherman, Winter 105mm, American Patrol, D-Day casualties, soon to hahopefully getting Dodge weapons carrier and trailer off Scott (Iona) tomorrow, and attempting to get the M8 Greyhound from somewhere, and finally trying to find American Tank Riders!

And I would love to make an American convoy scene, maybe going through a Normandy town or countryside!

Anyone else like convoys and such?
Or does anyone have a different scenario that they like?

With you on this. I like the scenes in Bridge to far when all the troops are in convoy it always looks excellent. Sadly, I do not have the room to do one on the scale I would like but, hopefully a few more soft skins etc and we should have enough vehicles to do a good set up.

Don't forget the new DD146 "Austin Light Utility" (Normandy Version), would be ideal to haul the tea.

Hiya Guys-
I've been lurking around here for ages, reading and learning, but I thought I'd finally bob up and say hi. What better place?
Mercy sakes alive, who doesn't like a convoy?
