Billruston Posted December 5, 2013 Author Share Posted December 5, 2013 I'm on disk 4, enjoying it!, tanks looked great and sounded well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Barrell Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Richard is correct, (as usual!) one Centaur, one Cromwell (Charioteer convert) and the rest of the allied armour were Grizzlies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlienFTM Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 It's been a long time since I watched so correct me if I am wrong, but my memory tells me that there were Cromwells on 432 chassis (along with StuG and maybe something else).

Adrian Barrell Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Nope, Stugs on 432 chassis and a Jagdpanther on a T55. The British tanks were the real thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enigma Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 When on Ginkel Heath in 1999? leaflets were handed out for people to register vehicles to be used in the upcoming BOB. I did it and later got a letter signed by Tomkins appologising the fact they wouldn't film in the Netherlands. Still have the leaflet and letter with BOB letterhead .
