I am an American, but I find the VBCW period/genre really appealing.

As do I. I have a reasonably large force for small scale actions.

Great report from a very interesting period -- interwar hypothetical. So many excellent figures, terrain, vehicles. One weapon struck my fancy but I do not know what it is. Anyone know -- tripod mounted gun in center.

Yogibearminis….no reason you cant do an American version….in fact, seems to me I've seen some material like that.

"Anyone know -- tripod mounted gun in center."

Outline bears some resemblance to a Fiat-Revelli M.1935 MG; just a shot in the dark, though.

Sounds like something Harry Turtledove would have written about.

An american version would be SOOOOOO much bigger. Tanks, planes, whole army corps.

The all quiet on the martian front figs would be good for it.

I do like the VBCW concept and the minis.

The tripod weapon is probably a Northover Projector link

Tsofian, that is it. Thanks. Must be a bolt action miniature from operation see lion.

There was an attempt to do a kick starter for a USA version of VBCW that failed. Look back in the past pages of TMP for discussion.
