Panzergator is correct, one choice was the rule so I will withdraw all my options but one.

Up Armored Challenger 2.

I know they make one already, but I like the one with the add on armor. I know other people make these, but I want a quality one. LOL...I want.. I want..

As for things like the M551 without the MG cupola shields being produced before, that is all well and good but does not help me now.. LOL..

For me, Aussie Infantry all the way!

Just sticking with the one as that is what they asked for, although I obviously have my hopes for other gear as well.

My choice would be something that doesn't seem to exist anywhere else yet, except in 15mm.

West German LARS Raketenwerfer please!

You already have the MAN 7.5-ton truck model as a starting point.

It's a missing piece for Team Yankee in the "Leopard" book:

Ok, in view of the specified conditions, I change my picks to a single request
- Conqueror Heavy Tank.

It will look good next to Centurions & since the M103 came out nicely, I would expect the same for them Brit tank.

BTR-60PU with brass farm antennae.

I'm pretty busy trying to get through all the new GHQ releases, but I would definitely vote for:

IHAWK ground-mount battery

And a bit of a change:

On-board baggage to decorate tanks, much like that already offered for WW2 US halftracks. H&R already does this, but I would like to have the variety and quality offered by GHQ. This could be done with country-specific packs or at least era-specific offerings. Another variant would be barrel/cargo loads sized for common cargo trucks.

Ferret701,
I would change my vote in a heart beat to external storage, packs and such.

Stryker · Post by **Stryker** » Thu Dec 15, 2016 2:01 pm

I will give a new one
K -21 South Korean IFV

Also would like to see the MIM-104 Patriot as well

I'm a dubya dubya two guy but if I had my modern pick I'd go with one item and pick the add on stowage as previously mentioned. Just like anything that can make my pieces unique looking when compared to each other. And honestly I'd probably use these on my ww2 minis if they were generic enough...

Thanks again GHQ

Just wondering if you'd want/get more participation or votes (and likewise good press) if you advertised this vote on your Facebook page or even other related forums like TMP?

Leopard AVLB - preferably the Leopard 1 based Biber.
Widely used by NATO nations plus others, so while it wouldn't be something any one person is likely to buy many of, it should be sufficiently popular to be commercially viable.

I would like to see a package of soviet infantry 1970's style with suitcase sagger's etc, also In would like to see middle eastern arab infanty, hvy weapons pack's also. and as a side how about an israli m3 half track with an ss-11 launcher? Sorry about not being with it this morning but my diabetes is playing hell with me this morning.

also sorry as the cold war is my modern warfare

Cav Dog · Post by **Cav Dog** » Thu Dec 15, 2016 9:40 pm

I vote for Soviet Cold War infantry heavy weapons:

Sagger ATGMs
SPG 9 Tripod mounted recoilless rifles
SA - 7/14 SAMs
RPD/RPK machine guns
Appropriate crews, radio men, spotters and leaders

This would complement and round out the existing AGS - 17 grenade launchers, RPG 7/16 and 120 mm mortars in the existing blister allowing a full complement of support weapons in the Motor Rifle Battalions of the Soviets as well as many client states in the Middle East and Africa.

New Modern British Infantry Heavy Weapons pack with Javelin instead of Milan, Starstreak instead of Blowpipe, Minimi instead of LSW and keep the 81mm Mortar. I just can't invest in a British Force without them!
