  7. A few years back Battlefront had a games day open house at their HQ (and write-up) where they had some arcade style games using their tanks. Wonder if this game is what became of the arcade version.
  8. I'll take them both if still available. Didn't own them back then and currently don't.

  11. It seems to be who is asked or running the checkout as when I was in there I was told also that only the miniatures are 50% off as I wanted some of the FoW Battlefield in a Box stuff like gun entrenchments so ended up putting them back.
  12. I recently ordered my Frostgrave books via Amazon.
  13. me too. bad timing for me to be out of town.
  14. Was it 50% all day or just during the morning sale?

  17. Goal: Assemble and paint up some of the flames of war Vietnam items I have sitting around. These are from the Battlefront Miniatures 15mm Vietnam range and initial images of them. 3x UH-1B Hog product code: vusbx02 3x UH-1D Slick product code: vusbx03 1x OH-6 Loach (two birds) product code: vusbx04 The UH-1B are configured as such: 1x Hog with M134 miniguns and M157 rocket launcher 1x Heavy Hog with M3 rocket launcher 1x Frog with M5 grenade launcher MG and M3 rocket launcher The main rotor is magnetized as is the flight stand (not shown). I have some door gunners that will be added. Lesson learned so far, grind down the resin a lot where the main motor assembly attaches to the body. I didn't do it on all of them and one can tell. It is too tall and wide on some of them so it doesn't sit snug on the body. The tail rotor can be tricky cutting it from the sprue. I broke one but have a parts resupply on the way.
