Interesting graphic of Tor Johnson.

M113 is Corgi 1/50.

I thought the Corgi M-113 was 1/43. At least the Vietnam series were that scale.

Nope, the 113 is 1/50. The jeeps and trucks are 1/43 though.

Was that the Unsung Hero (Vietnam range)?

The scales are not always listed correctly.

Col Durnford Supporting Member of TMP04 Oct 2012 9:57 a.m. PST

I'm sure on this one. I had the M-106 mortar carrier and it was way too big for use with TAG figures. If I recall correctly it even may have had the scale listed on the underside of the APC.

Later I traded it for a TAG 1/56 M-113 model and that fit very well.

Ok then. It's 1/43rd. It's not really an argument I'm invested in. I picked it up for cheap a bunch of years ago and threw some camo on it. It's my only 28mm modern vehicle, so it's not in much competition with anything else on the table for scale.

Col Durnford Supporting Member of TMP04 Oct 2012 11:22 a.m. PST

No problem on my part. As with anyhing in the hobby, what works works.

Back on topic. The action look very good. Sounds like a fun game.

No worries. I thought it was 1/50. I think when I expand my moderns I'll end up using either Imprint 1/50 or 1/56th from TAG and others.

The game involves some objectives where you try to uncover supplies and ammo, with a chance to uncover random events.

Col Durnford Supporting Member of TMP04 Oct 2012 12:25 p.m. PST

I was much happier with the TAG version. You also may want to look into Force of Arms for moderns. They have a better range of vehicles than TAG.

really cool looking scenery, esp the gas station and the beat up car.
