Eventually.  Very, very, very eventually....  ShockForce stats will come
first, I'm afraid.

Fortress' stuff tends to look pretty horrible on their website, but
painted
up it looks fantastic.	Their 1/300 scale tanks, soon to be re-released,
are some of my all-time favorites...and you can't beat the price.  I
have a
picture of two of the tanks on my Desert Camo page, but it's a pretty
bad
picture, and doesn't do them any justice.

Just remember, if you DO get Fortress figures, you need to prime them
with
spraypaint.  Otherwise, acrylics just puddle right off.
