Hitler still says no....he wants to sleep. Rommel went home for the weekend and the weather is not good, so they won't be coming.

Only half way. Convoy is held up outside of Callais waiting for fuel trucks because some 2LT forgot to sign the requisition on the third copy and the T-4 ICO fuel supply won't release the trucks. Patience is a virtue....one doctor had to quit because he ran out.
Wehrmacht and SS Tigers are also waiting for them.[:@]

Rommel is back and he still doesn't see crap in the channel. Though the gunner says a Chinese Junk went down off the Port of Cherbourg during that storm.

Sherman was last seen riding away from from South Carolina on his horse with a big smile on his face. That Chinese junk was the Hun-Lee, a Confederate sub that strayed off course and wound up near Cherbourg.

With each passing day...the reality is beginning to sink into my mind - The whole lot of Shermans have been ambushed by the Tigers...They're not going to make it...[]

I would be more interested in the Sherman if it was going to be a Heng Long. If the Sherman comes with the same electronics as the Mato King Tiger, I really don't want to buy a tank that I have to gut and re-do to make it useable. I have the itch to buy another tank, and I'm considering the Heng Long Pershing; just because I suspect it would be more reliable than the Sherman right out of the box.

Is there a Mato King Tiger, or do you mean the Matorro one?

This new Sherman is going to have completley new electronics (or so we've been told).

Sherman Spotted! Well, sort of. Not sure if it is still going to run as I think the board is fried. Better water proof it next time.

The Pershing is a great tank out of the box, and there are so many versions you can modify it to as well. Get metal tracks too- it really adds to the Pershing!
