Progress report for Conquest
The models arrived on 9 September 2012. As Conquest is nearly here and seeing the progress on Xelee's and Pooch's blogs I was motivated to get started.

Tasks to be completed before Conquest
Assemble 4 Marder III (7.62cm)
Paint 8 Marder III (7.62cm)
Paint 5 M14/41
Repaint 2 8-rads
Repaint 2 Pak 38s
Repaint 2 pioneer platoons in DAK colours and rebase, integrating some DAK pioneer models that I got today at Comics.
Find miscellaneous support vehicles and paint...
Decide whether to take a pioneer supply vehicle or AA machine guns on the M14/41s. Mines or wire from the supply vehicle would really fit with the El Alamein setting. On the other hand 30 MG shots from the M14/41s...
Good stuff, Chris. I will post my wip tommorrow. Need to force myself to start terrain as have been putting that off. I think you should get the supply wagon or maybe short an inf platoon and have both?
