Truth be told, I am not excited about the motorcycles as I do a really bad job painting them and it taxes my patience. I would prefer mostly unmounted poses if you did motorcycles. Although I did see the Italian tricycle (don’t know name/model) pulling a cannon in a series of photos which I thought was interesting.

Engineers!! We need engineers!! I’m surprised there are not more votes for this package has these would be really valuable when wargaming. My suggested poses:

Bangalore mines and/or satchel charges
Mine field clearing (detector, bayonet etc)
Bridge work (various)
Assault teams (see above plus flamethrowers which are in other packs??)

regia-marina - did you want that to replace one of your existing votes or were you just seeing what interest was out there?

Hi CG2, please keep my votes the same. I was just throwing the San Marco's out there to gage interest. They would be a nice addition.

CG2, you have a very well planned and organized effort. It is very useful. Thank you.

I also appreciate all of the effort that you are putting into this to keep it organized. I'm also very excited that I still have votes left! Can I sell or trade my votes like carbon credits? :lol:

I think that would defeat the purpose! But you can encourage people to vote! Have all your wargames partners/clubmembers voted?

Ok, let's look at another pack - Ultra-modern cars/SUVs. Which ones do you want? We'll probably only get 2 different types in a pack.

Whatever those big SUVs they used to move the President and his family around in when I was in DC in '14. As for cars something typical for around the world, if VIPs a large Mercedes, if not a mid size Japanese or German.

I was thinking something like a 4-door sedan and a compact. Like maybe a Crown Victoria and a Peugeot. We already have pickup trucks with the technicals pack and various land rovers.

I think the Secret Service use Chevvy Suburbans or at least they used to. Looks like we have some people wanting VIP Targets and some wanting ordinary people?

Good point. I want them for civilian clutter on the battlefield, but I can see uses for VIPs as well.
