Hey guys. With the Dreadnaughts and Flattops campaigns winding down, now is the time to start thinking about what you want to build for the Leyte Gulf Campaign. This is another year long build. The subject matter is any ship that participated in the sea battles during the Leyte landings.
Happy Modeling
Kenny

Aiyeee Gator!
It's right around the bend now, isn't it, mate?! Gonna be another great warship campaign, my friend! No idea what I'm building yet (shoot, I haven't even started on my DDD2 entry yet!), but I'm thinking hard on it!

I値l have a few other things to work on before I can start so I値l probably be a late starter (yes I know theres still a few months but I値l be busy.)
I知 hopping to do a Japanese ship but have no clue what I値l get for it yet. Perhaps the Yamato.

Hey guys, sounds good. Don't forget about Hasegawa's new 1/350 IJN destroyer, Yukikaze.

Hey Kenny or Gunny,
Wasn't there a thread a while back with a list of the ships that were involved in the Leyte Gulf? If not, I will look on the 'net for some ideas when time allows.

Here's something to think about Skip, there were several US submarines at Leyte Gulf. Something right up your alley.
