• 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.

    Panzerwerks ...the good and the bad .....

    As a consumer, I buy from all around the world, and from most of the manufacturers who are on this thread. No one likes to be cheated. I happily pay any import taxes into the USA. In my business dealings with the UK and EU, I usually ask for the VAT to be subtracted. The laws state that the...

    Whats the status of the 1/6 world?

    Not sure there is a lack of intetest because there are fewer posts here! Plenty of 1/6 posts on Facebook, where it is easier to post pictures and to like someone's contribution without having to actually write a supportive post. The only problem with Facebook is the plethora of 1/6th related...

    Black box toys - M29 Weasel worth buying?

    My dad said that the model ( I bought one), looked like the ones they used in 10th Mountain Division, Italy 1945 as transports, tow vehicles and ambulances. They also used them at Camp Hale, Colorado for training.

    Some of the best photos...

    If it is colorized, the colors chosen by the artist may not be the actual colors. The artist chooses the colors, tints and shades. Some spurious results are possible.

    Is the DML Firefly getting close ?

    My local shop preordered. He took customer's money. Now he is getting a lot of complaints. Due to this, he has stopped ordering from Dragon at all. He refuses to take any orders for Dragon USA in any scale and is seeking new suppliers for all the other scale models.

    Fury - Now including spoilers. Don't read if you don't want to read spoilers

    Reading the diaries and such, the tank crews couldn't get enough trained crew replacements in 1945 Europe. Untrained people first go into the assistant driver position. It's a simple job. Not much knowledge required. Next would be loader. Then driver. Then gunner. The most experienced was the...
