Cerebus just arrived on my porch!

After and quick activation ceremony on Sunday afternoon, we will be taking on all 125 Pumas so no one can claim to field them ever again in an future battles, and then a company of pesky "Just Because You Want to Have Them" T-34/85's, for good measure.

Gimp said: AELFWINE said: It is not about "I have more than you," it is about filling out TOE in order to provide proper bounding overwatch support. Since WW2 tanks ranged from two to seven for a platoon, what TO&E are you refering to? The German super-heavies were planned to be fielded in pairs, many of the Soviet heavies were fielded in pairs, and even some Allied tanks were fielded in pairs per platoon. A company of seven for the big or rare tanks was a fairly likely option. I've got no problem with someone wanting to buy a lot of models for an impressive force when they play a big battle, but without official justification, a fan made TO&E is simply a home made excuse to buy more to have more. I've got a company of T-34/85's for when I want to field a Dasant Company for another game. I field them very rarely, because we don't often play games that size in that scale, but it's fun when we can. Being able to field 500 points in heavy walkers would look cool in a 2000 point game, but even there would probably be a lopsided force compared to the fictional production 'realities.' It would fit up there with the people who field recon companies of Puma's, when only 125 were built for the entire war. More power to you if you can afford it and enjoy it, but don't bother with meaningless double-speak to cover a simple desire to have more. I'd love to play in a game big enough for five heavy walkers to fit, but I can't afford it right now, so it would take a lot more effort coordinating it with other players. For those who will have to work harder for it to happen, please take some pictures of some big battles and post them. I'd love to see them. You have certianly provided this forum with a great many verbose posts.

Wombattangofoxtrot said: Loophole Master said: Good grief! What do you DO with 4 of each? Drive your enemies before you and hear the lamentation of the women. Exactly! Actually, 4 of each for Axis platoons and 5 of each for Allies, should be the standard. I am already on that for the medium and light walkers.

That is nothing. I have 5 of the original core sets and two of the revised core sets as well. Big battles!

I just ordered 4 each of Allies and Axis heavy walkers!!!

Excellent Deal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I haven't even seen all of November's projected released available in stores or online. Is Santa having a labor dispute with the Elves? It looks like we will have NBA games on Christmas, but no new dust releases. -
They are certainly releasing a good bit of late. I am happy to see this. Greg

That production was very well done. Greg
