So many videos! What an e-NAM-ous amount of content. XD
I do love the detail on the FoW vehicles.
Yet another video? You’re spoiling us!
Warren’s slow but steady descent to the murky depths of historical wargaming is quite amusing to behold. Keep it up!
Lol I will admit to enjoying the movies 😉
Platoon tonight I think 🙂
My Sherman looks so impotent next to that monster!!
Love me some Beehive rounds
Tank+Shotgun= SPLAT
I have to agree – tanks aren’t what I think of when I think of Vietnam, but fantastic looking models all the same.
Great models and excellent casting
I would like to play as ANZACs
that is a cool army to bring into the game imho
Just changes things up a bit from the US forces
The cover graphic shows South Vietnamese Walker Bulldog tanks not Australian Centurions
Oops I will have it checked in the morning!
Clicked link to post that. 🙂
Also, for cool Centurions. They’re very useful for Arab Israeli wars too *cough* *cough*
Fixed
Nice one
Yeah I did a double take
Did not think FoW could make such a gaff.
Silly Warren. 😛
love it. drop dead gorgeous piece of British military kit, my great uncle saw em in action at Imjin in Korea could be worth picking one up if just for a display piece 🙂
n staxer’s right…
So many great games like this one, so liitle time to play them and so little money to possess them all. 🙁
Man that’s an awesome tank I think I’m gonna have to get me some of those
Yummy.
Rode in a Danish Centurion V a few weeks back. Awesome experience.
great content
a nice bit of kit
Nice tanks to bad they didn’t get much use.
The Centurion packed a punch back then as I recall.
The Anzac army looks pretty interesting. Have to look into those models.
Great show as usual!
Day one and five videos. I was excited, but this made me even more excited for tomorrow. Not the greatest fan that this tank is again an resin / metal kit. Hoped for more plastic kits from battlefront, because they’re awesome!
Yeah Centurions were only in service for 60 YEARS and used in 14 major military operations by 11 countries.
So hardly used at all….(lol.)
What about the Napalm?
The Anzac where one of the best forces in Nam and I hope the game recreates that.
I wonder if the Battlefront boys have thought about doing the Arab/Israeli Conflict as that could be a good direction for them to go?
They say as much in one of their videos but having TOD on their plate right now they’re probably going to not do it in the foreseeable future.
