Sounds good. You might want to check the dates on the campaign. Start and end dates are the same.

Rodger, didn't you know? It's a "speed build" one-day campaign.

Thanks for pointing that out, I have emended the campaign to reflect its year-long time frame.

Signed up. The plan is the Balao-class USS Batfish (SS 310) built/displayed as she sits in Muskogee Oklahoma today.

Signed up. Now just have to decide. I've got about a dozen subs in the stash from Dragon to Zvezda. All 1/350 of course. I'm leaning towards the Hobby Boss Surcouf. Naturally bigger is better and you can't get any bigger than 8" guns on the Surcouf.

I am in for this one. Not a big ship builder, but I have always been facinated by the submaines.

Looking forward to it.

I have a '43 Gato class or the IJN I-58 from my Indy, both by AFV Club in 1:350. Either would make a decent project for this.

Here's something that'd be great for someone to do - The Union Navy's USS Alligator.

Hello Gentlemen,

I want to sign me in for this campaign too! As it is my first campaign participation at all I have a stupid question: How do I need to sign in? Is it just raising my arm here or have I push a button somewhere?

I ordered myself the Iron Shipwrights SS-01 Holland in 1:72 scale which will surely be an interesting build.

Horray!
