RE: Re: [SGII] VTOL

I like it.  The nice thing is that you could theoretically swap out just
about any popular modern attack helicoptor for the pache to fit your
needs.	Hokum, Havok, Mangusta, heck, might even work with a Hind.

Looks good.  Waiting to see it painted now.

All this talk about 15mm, I may have to bug the guys at Eureka to do
15mm versions of the PAs I pushed through in 25mm, just so I can play in
both scales with the same force.
