My ‘no new kits in 2018’ stance has just taken a hammering. I reckon I’ve got only one of the SIGs covered and that one doesn’t look like it’s going to be selected anyway :hand:
Its been tried and tested, it works! So don't blame the system if you're no good. :doh:

Heavy bomber SIG for the win - just put the new Airfix B17 on the Christmas list :dance:

Beats my no new kits rule and gets me a place in the 2018 SIGs - :banana: :banana: :banana:

So we're decided, it's all Scott's fault?

I'm in the same boat, got a build that I was gonna start that would fit perfectly in a Cold War, jungle or desert setting (depending on markings) but I guess I'll just have to do it anyway :P

It'll be interesting to see what people come up with for community-organised GBs

Edit: Just wondering if there's any idea on what specifically qualifies as a "heavy bomber"? Role, engine number, ordnance tonnage, airframe weight, national designation? Just trying to plan out what I can allow myself to buy for next year :lol: and the Japanese idea of a heavy bomber in WWII was pretty different to the American definition for example :scratch::
