If it were after Telford, ie. late November onwards, I'd be interested. But if October then it would have to be a no, too much to do for Telford.

How about starting Oct 16th and running until the end of November? We're getting crowded with GBs at the end of the year?
Another alternative would be August.

Mid-October start would be OK for me -- any Telford contributions have to be in mail before then.

That would give us 4 GBs running in November. Is that okay with you John?

I'd be okay with that, I should be in the new workshop by then :)

Cheers

Sure, the "limit" is 5, we'll push it. Give me specific dates & I'll schedule it.
The key factor leading up to and including November is the number of folks crashing & burning on Telford projects.

Just so I name it correctly, the thread calls it the "Ground Forces in WW2 North African Campaign" but the 1st post and the poll imple it is limited to vehicles only ? Are artillery pieces, figures, dioramas, and such eligible ? If so, should we perhaps call it the North African Campaign GB and you define parameters in detail ?

I think we should go with the "Ground Forces" definition. Artillery, figures etc are definitely included.
Just no aircraft :) for a change :)
