The Commer Q2 family also included some similar COE models, mostly tractors but also some vans and GS types. Pity we can't see the front of the cab.

Brilliant bit of rework for a cheap diecast toy truck, Richard. Being the very sad sort that I am, if I were to make one for myself I think I would have to figure out a way to hide the distinctive postwar Chevy radiator grill, perhaps some sort of brush guard like on the ex-French Army contract GMC ...

Thanks David. That enables me to make a more educated guess as to a reasonable Tac (tactical competence) score for each unit. I’d be interested to see the equivalent for morale grade if that’s possible. Or even just confirmation of the top and bottom values. Richard C Morale grades typically run fr...

I've been using Command Decision since 1989, but am not at all familiar with TacWW2, and am not really sure what you are looking for. So, here is a scan of the page dealing with Troop Quality from the current Test of Battle version of the rules. Hopefully, it will give some idea of how the ratings a...

The Navweaps entry on the 6pdr Hotchkiss includes figures for overall gun length and bore length, which would be useful in creating the new gun barrel. Also a couple of photos on naval m...

The Strelets ones are a we...

Likewise! Many years ago another online friend from the UK (also named Alan!) sent me a small batch of diecast cars and trucks, which included a couple of Matchbox Ford AA light utilities. Much too big for 20mm, but probably perfect for 28mm SCW or WW2.

Very nice work, Richard. I'm still using some ancient BP Casts Char D2 as stand-ins for the D1.
