One of the reasons I enjoy VBCW is that it gives me the opportunity to recreate the toys of my youth as wargames pieces.

One piece I was always in love with was the Britains 18-in Howitzer. It was a massive piece, and very impressive to my small eyes. As it turns out, it was actually based on the 8 inch howitzer of the Great War.

I finally got a chance to build one: link

Oh yeah, that's a huge gun! I've got a Big Bertha rattling around here someplace…
