From what I read the P107 was not a reliable machine. A Citroën half track vehicle, with a attitude... Speed was his main quality. _________________ Remember-OWS-

Only M2A0 from the guild of the unwanted WOTC got a case. We are not the high in priority to get any pre-seel booster _________________ Remember-OWS-

I want some T-28s to fight along side my T-35s so badly, I could 'squee' like a girl watching twilight.
I'm convinced Early War is going to be a GOOD set... even with the repaints/reprints. _________________

The set looks balanced according to standard WotC rules: 1/3 cool and unique units, 1/3 remakes and repaints ... and last third will be pathetic, useless crap.
Singles only, at least for me. _________________

P107:
Half-tracked artillery tractor of approximately 4.5t, being able to transport 5 to 7 men. It measured in length 4.85, in width 1.80m and in height 1.95m. It was propelled by a gasoline engine of 4 cylinders developing 55 hp and could reach on road a max. speed of 45km/h and traverse with its fuel reserves 400km. It was equipped with any armament, and any shielding. This vehicle was produced to 3224 specimens until April 1940.
So like a truck !
This is a good beginning I hope Wotc leak the second half case and show some pics ! |

Yeah, I'm with you there. I only collect UK, Japan, Germany and US pieces so this set was going to be of limited appeal to me right from the start. The bright spot is I'll happily grab anything Japanese to beef up that army. I'm hoping for a few good UK pieces (spotter, mortar and troop carrier) but I doubt much else will be of any interest to me from them. Hopefully I'm wrong but I doubt it. I'm sure the Germans will have some nice stuff but since it's all early war and I don't have a lot of pieces from that period now I'm debating if it's worth it.
And crap is right! Just looking down that list from half a case is giving me chills. I'm not sure if it's just because Halloween is close at hand or if it's just because that list of units is SCARY!
Another Morris armored car!
Another Sd Kfz 231!!
Another Kubelwagen V !!! That's a slap in the face.
Another Motorcycle Half-Track !!!! You've gotta be kidding me! _________________ Trade List at:

I agree the motohalf track or the 231 are not the best sellers, but you gotta expect a few reprints.
Give it a chance... I say it could be a nice set this one, I hope for some pics soon. _________________ Custom AAM Maps & Counters here

I'm gonna love this set. Lots for me to collect.
It'll mostly be singles though. I'm still mostly V1 so I dont want too many vehicles. _________________ There are no desperate situations, there are only desperate people.

Am I correct in assuming that China will get the Mongolian Cavalry? Cooooool...
...Soviet Conscript sounds like fun too. Finally a meat wave of 2 pointers. |

The Mongolian Cavalry is a Soviet unit. There are no Chinese units in the set. Odd for an "Early War" themed set, but true. _________________

I like it, although making it a rare is another WOTC retarded choice _________________ SHUT UP ABOUT AMERICAN POWER CREEP, YES WOTC DO GIVE THEM OBVIOUS PREFERENCE, THERE A US COMPANY, BUT IF YOU CAN'T BEAT US FLEETS OF ANY TYPE, THEN JUST COME TO THE REALIZATION THAT MAYBE YOU JUST SUCK.
