First up, an important show update. Since we published new dates for Broadside and Salute<\/a> earlier in the week, we’ve been informed that the organisers of Broadside have been forced to change the date again (they have our sympathies at the moment…) and it is now to be held on Saturday December 4th<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As a follow-on from last week’s 6mm New Ukrainians<\/a>, two of our existing 6mm American Republic<\/a> vehicles have been given a makeover. Since the NUA Vyriz<\/a> and Bulava<\/a> MBTs use the same turrets as the AmRep Kochte<\/a> and Curtiss<\/a> respectively, it made sense to replace the older versions at the same time (we had to make new moulds anyway). Both models are available individually or in company packs with 12 tanks and a command vehicle.<\/p>\n
