I think that is better if they work more on ground units than on aircrafts

I like this idea, it would be nice if it was possible to include an aircraft with each release.

But, having said that feel that Rubicon perhaps should concentrate on vehicles?

I would not be that interested in aircraft, for reasons of use and storage mainly.

The only aircraft that would be useful would be assault gliders, but they do not have the glamour of Sptfires etc.

Assault gliders in 28mm would be absolutely FAB!!!

GREAT IDEA!

In the meantime, Blitzkrieg have a 1/56 Stuka model. The site has the instructions if you are interested, more informative than photographs alone.

Do you not think the 1/56th scale aircraft a bit oversize when out on the table ? As a club, we have used one scale size down, so a 1/72nd flying over the table looks right and feels right.

The use of 1/72 aircraft by the likes of Warlord and others is fine for fly pasts, but it`s nice if they are landed to have correct scale, 1/48th is so big and 1/72nd is sadly comically small. Strangely in Zombie games I use 1/55TH AND 1/64TH for Helicopters and Aircraft, the civilian vehicles being 1/64th, they look really good with figures, and cars allowing a kneeling man to fire over its wing.
