Wow, my first review. I am officially a contributor !

Thanks for putting this one up Rowan, I hope some of you guys find it useful. I am looking forward to building this one for the Great War Campaign starting November 11 this year.

Nice review Damian

Timely too, I was just thinking of buying this.. had my cursor hovering over it on the Hannants website last night.

This is of course the engine from the old Hasegawa 1/8th Camel and I see the Le Rhone is scheduled for release too. They'd make a nice pair.

Damian,
Forgive the (probably, I've been away for 10 days) silly question. The Great War Build Campaign in November? Have I completely missed it or is it associated with the "other" site?
Cheers,
Lance

Hi Lance.

The Campaign Page is HERE , and it is associated with the "other" site as you said, but it encompasses all genres and should be very popular.
