Hey all,

I submitted a proposal today for a campaign commemorating the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Leyte Gulf. This campaign would allow any ship or aircraft from any nation that participated in the battle.

Just sending this out to see if anyone would be interested. The dates for the campaign would be 23 October 2014 to 26 October 2015.

Hope your interested and look forward to the campaign

Nice timing Dave,

Am planning to build the Dragon CVL22 in 1/350th after I have finished HMS Tiger for the WW1 campaign, as she was at Leyte count me in!

Go on then I'll join, I did the last Leyte campaign with the Tama but this time it's either a Fletcher class or the Yukikaze.

Luciano and Si its great to have you aboard

If I can get my hands on it I am going to build the Aoshima Heavy Cruiser Maya.

Looking forward to seeing what everyone is bringing to the fight.

In the Official Thread for the campaign I posted a link to a good Order of Battle listing for both sides
