Who would be interested in diorama campaign showing defeated troops and damaged vehicles? War is full of both but we usually show triumphing soldiers and vehicles crushing the enemy .
Rules: diorama showing damaged vehicles, defeated and retreating troops, POWs, anything that will give the diorama the atmosphere of bitter taste of defeat (you know what I mean).
Scales: all
Time frame: lets say 01.08.2009 – 31.01.2010.
Era: WWI - modern

What do you say about that?

Andrzej

that would be an awsum campaing

there could be some intereasting ideas

im in but only if the time can be moved?

James, what timeframe would be interesting for you?

acutally thats alrgiht bud i was thinking of it clashing with the MP campgain lol

Nice idea I hope it takes off.

I'd be in. I KNOW there are some great stories out there just begging to be miniatured.

mmhhh.. nice, I'm in !!!

This one sounds interesting i'd have to check my stash for something suitable

I really like the idea. you could definately count me in.

Sounds great, i already know what figs to use.

I'd like to see this one take off as well!
Regards, Ed

I was already thinking about building something like that... good idea!

Wow.... that was FAST... we already have enough people supporting this idea to submit the campaign.
I'll do that ASAP.
Any suggestions concerning the rules are welcomed - we can update it anytime.

I'm very glad you've found this one interesting.

Andrzej

I'm interested too...

Why not simply call it: The-Italian-Army-Way Campain?

Sorry - very original idea - I'm in

I've just submited this campaign. Proposed rules are:
1. This is diorama campaign – vignette/diorama is required to finish this campaign.
2. Any nationality, any time period is allowed
3. Diorama has to show soldiers that without doubt are defeated (retreating, POWs, etc), damaged or destroyed vehicles, ruined buildings – anything it takes to give the diorama atmosphere of defeat.
4. Civilian figures and vehicles are welcomed as well but it has to be clear that they are on defeated side.
5. Undamaged buildings and vehicles are allowed if they serve the main purpose in other way (in example as a part of retreating forces or scene showing evacuating civilians).
6. Figures-only dioramas are allowed.
7. Work must begin and be completed within the active period.
8. At least one picture of finished diorama has to be submitted to campaign's gallery or on the forum to complete campaign.

I hope it fits everyone. I also hope that it fits Mark Millard .

Could I join in with the reworked remnants of the medic-capmaign?
I started that, but never made it.... not even close!
plus I am thinking about changing a lot on ot, too...

I think that it's OK to join with kit that needs to be rebuilt or reworked. I think that only trashold I will put on this one is that the kit must be changed somehow - simple repainting would not be allowed. For example destroying a model you've made before will be allowed but changing only camo will not.

What do you think about that?

I think that will be ok, because there hasn't been any painting involved yet.
I also came up with an idea for a small conversion and some add-on's...

So I'm in!!

As long as it's not just restricted to the 20-21st centuries I'm in, I've had a couple dio ideas for years, i just have not been able to pull them off.

Any era is allowed so if you want to join us with i.e. Napoleonic Wars - you're welcome!

Andrzej

Too cool!!

I'm in!!

Bill.

This is a great campain !! I'am in

Hi
Very interesting idea. I'll see what else I've got to do before comitting to this one. Wide range of possible ideas for this.
Good Luck with it.

I'm in. It would actually be my first campaign.

hello Andrzej,
sounds like another great campaign,but if it starts this year in am out.i am doing 12 campaigns for 2009 and so far only 1 for 2010.can you do the sart date around December 2009? that would make it easier for me.
cheers,
Bruce

I'm very happy that so many of you find this idea interesting!
BTW: since this is an open-era campaign and defeat is the key to success (strange phrase isn't it? ) maybe we should inform our friends from Historicus Forma - they are specialising in stuff older than WWI and different types of figures other than our favourit 1/35 and 1/72 AFVs, ain't they?


@ Bruce - I'm involved in 9 campaigns here and 1 at Aeroscale - we can make it . If you would be able to start we could always consider extension (this came up quite early this time ).

Andrzej

I'm in

Hi all!
I'm happy to anounce that we're officialy approved by Mark, and you can enlist to this campaign HERE.
I'll try to propose a banner and a ribbon soon.

We can all start planning!

Andrzej
