Were those previews in the coming weeks, or was it the coming months?

By Kaufschtick, in Tide of Iron

actually i've been thinking about a small armor expansion to fill in some allied tanks my thoughts where as follows Stuart.Lee/Grant,Valentine,Churchhill, Sherman Firefly and Cromwell the benifit would be that the first 4 served in all 3 allied armies so they would have lots of uses.

These would certainly be useful. Many variant cards for the Churchill, please.

How would you model tanks with two guns, such as the Lee/Grant or the Char B1 bis? Small extra attack when stationary? I don't know if these tanks had gunners for every gun or if the driver doubled as gunner for the hull gun.

Great idea. I'd also like some Shermans in the British colour (just for aesthetic purposes).

Some further suggestions:

Russians: T34/85, IS2, SU152, SU76, T70, BT 7.

Germans: Panzer III L, Panzer IV d, Stug d, Jagdpanther, Elephant, Panzer II C, Panzer IV E, Sdkfz 222 or 231 (armored car).

US (in addition to the ones already mentioned above): Mchaffee, Greyhound armored car.

I'd really love such an expansion and might very well buy multiples of it!!!

That would be awsome! aplauso.gif

Maybe a couple Russian tanks as well? corazon.gif

That's a very good point, you might well see folks buying a lot of an expansion like that, not just ToI players either. I could see that carrying over to M44 players, for use in that game, and miniature wargamers out there. cool.gif

I'm already on the verge of painting my ToI stuff, an expansion like that would certainly settle the "paint or not paint" question for me! gran_risa.gif
