Can you have too many tanks?



While sorting through all my tanks for a Battleground WWII game for Cold Wars 08, I decided to lay them out on a table to see what I actually had.....I was a bit surprised as I did not realize how many tanks I had acquired over the years.
These are a mix of Solido, Bandai, Tamiya, Corgi, Battlehonors, and a couple of AFAD castings and probably a few more.

Cold Wars 2008

Well I have returned from Cold Wars 2008. I hosted two Battleground WWII games and was one of 8 gamemasters for the HAWKS Pirate-a-ganza game - 8 tables and 30+ gamers using the G.A.S.L.I.G.H.T. Rules. Here are a few pictures of the action:

The set-up for A Confused Retreat.....once we started playing I forgot to take anymore pictures.

Kashpor Station by moonlight (actually a power outage at the Lancaster Host that threatened to cancel the game...luckily power was restored and a good time was had by all).
