• Pardon the dust while the boys rebuild the site.

    The board will be in a state of disarray as I get things sorted out, for a little while at least.

    The new incarnation is using Xenforo as the system software. It is much like what we are used to, with a few differences. I will see about making a FAQ to help point out the differences for the members.

     

    One IMPORTANT difference for all of us old timers is that the 'mail' system is replaced with what are called 'conversations'/

    There is no 'Inbox' or 'Out box' or 'Sent' folders anymore.

    Think of Conversations as private 'threads' or topics that don't exist in a forum, that you start with another member. NOTE: Conversations can include more than one member if you or someone else in the conversaion, likes.
    Takes a little getting used to but I am sure you all can get a hang of it.

     

    Only a slightly modified default default Xenforo style is available for now. Once the new SAG style is ready it will be available.

    All existing users should be able to login with their usernames and passwords once the site goes up.

     

    If anyone has difficulties logging in please contact me at sixthvanguard@gmail.com.

     

    Thank you for your support and patience. I know it has been a loooong road.

    Lost and Found in Russia (plus detail shots of my WSC)

    At the time i mixed in sand to my paint... it can look good but its messy and a little hard to work with I have since found that Flour works even better, and it looks better if you want to put it on a figures boots or somthing too, sands a bit larger than that. The sand tends to clump and not...

    Lost and Found in Russia (plus detail shots of my WSC)

    I decided to get my regular russians out (non naval inf) and take some pictures... The whole "premise" behind the deal is that a German officer gets lost and picked up by some Russians... And then interrogated by an NKVD officer... Pics of the truck in color are at the end... Its not fully...

    Wikipedia on 1:6 scale modeling

    I wanted to encourage everyone to go on there and add/edit (be postive) any info they would like. I created the original article, and i must say, It is now nothing like it was when it started. All the edits and links added by other hobbists from other boards have made it much better. When it...

    Bergmann MP18 or MP28?

    I think 21st did put out a mp28, it came with the Axis weapon set two, and their uboat commander... but that was about it... They also made an erma emp(in the same weapon set), which no one has yet to make and is one of my favorite SMG's I like the DML mp28 the best though, and the YS ammo...

    Barrels and Stuff

    its probably easier for a couple of guys to off load 5 gallon cans that have handles, than it is for them to move a big heavy ole barrel. That was probably the armys thinking.... You also dont need a pump as you can easily pour from the can straight to the tank...
