Cold War GB The Rules EXTENDED TO 17.04.2016

[crudebuteffective]

ill ask the honourable gentlemen.
Some of my ideas for this may slip into a more Hot war, as if I do a group of Twilight 2000 knock offs  ( wiki link and article    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twilight_2000    )   will I be considered ok, or am I taking it a bit far ( things like the stalwart  loaded with some A frames and SNEB pods for  a MLRS a like)   ?
or do I build like mad and do a mass submission at Cosford and greater minds than I can make decisions

HI

We have had a conflab about this and we thinks it doesn't fit in the cold war theme sorry mate

[Steel Penguin]

CBE   no problem,  it takes some of the "build pressure" off   
I can concentrate on the Chally and warrior stuff

[Gondor]

Am I right in saying that any model that's part of this GB must have been started after Jan 2nd this year?

unless only minor stuff had been done

CBE (mod)

So I take it that separating parts and only painting the cockpit black and nothing having been glued would be ok?

Gondor

Yes that sounds fine to me. What about you CBE?

sounds ok to me

CBE

Great, that means I can add a Hunter build or two to my list of things to build

I have an idea for a jet trainer and/or a transport aircraft. Would these be permitted under the rules?

I also have a started F-14 in the stash but I'll have to check and see how far I got with it 25 years ago....

Sure: training and transport were relevent to the Cold War if the force owning them was training and transporting for a Cold War purpose. The thing to do is emphasise the Cold War role in your backstory.

We're being pretty strict on the 'no major construction' clause in the rules. The best thing to do is PM a pic of the F-14 to the mods for us to mull over.

[crudebuteffective]

[DogfighterZen]

 Thank you!

Folks, the GB finishes on the 3rd of April in just over ONE WEEK.

If you want to ask for an extension, now would be the time.

[JayBee]

OK I am asking for an extension. Not certain how much but certainly a couple of weeks at the very least.
Given that the date that the Berlin Wall came down (November 10) is widely regarded as the official end of the Cold War that could have been a good end date for this GB. However I am not asking to push it quite that far.

Over to you Moderators.

[kitbasher]

as mentioned in the Fishcake build, yes I'd love an extension but it would have to be well into April for it to make a difference, possibly the end of the month, which is [edit] probably unlikely an unrealistic request I feel.

[kitnut617]

As with kitbasher, I could use a few more weeks

[zenrat]

I'm good thanks.  I should get the last MiG 21 done in time as long as there is no disaster.

[sandiego89]

I should make it...fingers crossed.
