So what else you got. My friend has at last count 14
German WWII Divisions in 6mm 1 to 1 scale. Granted
I talked him out of getting the infantry for all
those divisions but he does have the vehicles. I
do know one order he placed for 1000 trucks (of the
same type) to fill in the blanks. I am not sure
the composition of any of his other nationalities
but I do know he was talking about Russian Tank
Corps.

My own philosophy is to get only what would fit
on to a game table but get every reasonable force
combination. So I usually get only one battalion
on any given vehicle (Regt(Bn) for British WWII at
five companies and Tank Brigades/Regts for Russians
{at 45 to 85 tanks)). The last time I ran an
inventory I had over 1000 WWII tanks (with
appropriate numbers of APCs and trucks) in 6 different
national forces.

I extended the 1 bn max per vehicle when I was
pushing my modern vehicles but stopped pushing
modern in the late 80's. There are five national
forces represented.
