Sorry for the late notice about this kickstarter, (there are just over 5 days left) but I am chock-a-block with work at the moment! But I am not complaining about that. :o )

Unfortunately there is only

All I get is:

"404 Oh my goodness
We apologize but something's gone wrong — an old link, a bad link, or some little glitch."

I have repasted the link and it now seems to work fine. (Hopefully – as I checked and it was exactly the same address!!!???)

3 days 22 hours to go, and getting close to the next stretch-goal :-)

This is an excellent KickStarter if you are interested in (early) soviet trucks and other AFVs. As well as the vehicles CBRfigs lists, there is also the chance to get a T26 tabk, KhT-26 flamethrower, a komsomolets tractor and the Finish Vickers type E model B tank with bofors AT gun.

And recently added are Russian and Finnish infantry platoons at a great discount from buying them from Baker Company's website.

Gavin has just confirmed that backers will be able to increase their pledges after the kickstarter (great news for many backers and potential backers).

Also, Gav has said that he plans to produce the unlocked vehicles as well at some stage. So it will be a case of arm twisting being exerted I think. :)

Now less than 2 days to go. A KickStarter well worth looking at ;-)

Just over 10 hours to go now.

Well the kickstarter is in the last 2 1/2 hours now, so it's the last chance to join in folks.

As I sit here painting my 28 platoons each of Finns and Russians I wonder how many people who missed the Winter War kickstarter have managed to get the discounted platoons from this kickstarter. ;o)
