• 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.

RAS, The dollar sign in front of the 50 and decimal point behind it means fifty dollars rather than .50 which would be cents. That's $50. USD to be precise. It's a great and generous prize from a friend of the SAG.
All the prizes are AWESOME and we owe a big vote of thanks to all our members and friends who did so much to make this contest possible. Some of those are:
Inxsone
Thetoysurgeon
Brady of Monkeydepot
Sixtydriver
Panzerwerk
Don and Rob of CVI
Thebattlerhino
Sgt. Rock
Cory of Toychest and Collectibles
Dave of Armorpax
Sixth Vanguard
Pangea95
Die Werkstatt
And all the guys in "Cadre" who donated the 250 Alt that is the centerpiece of our Grand Prize. they are the core of our hobby and deserve to be recognized.
All you guys ROCK.
 
Just to keep you all posted the 37mm goes on sale next Friday, we will be shipping the one for the contest prize direct to the winner at Sixty's request once we have the details. Full details now on the website,

Due to the weight of the finished item and to avoid adding a fourth mould (another $25) to the kit we are now doing the main carriage and possibly the barrel in PU resin (not brittle!) along with the shields, all the remaining parts are white metal as seen previously,

cheers

Dave
