You chose dishonor and you will have war." (Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.) What did the Australians do in ww2 and other conflicts?

 | The Airborne 6 pounder's a personal favourite, (rare gun, even Fort Nelson's is on loan from a film company) the later 6 with the muzzle brake and the right ammunition was a quality item, you might not penetrate that king tiger's front plate but there was a good chance of shattering some vulnerable part or jamming a turret, maybe even a good solid side hit. Brave men to fight with one of those eh monty? |

| I'm with Gromney & Spidge (sounds like a dodgy law firm!) and go for the 88 and the 17 Pounder. As for the Panzerschreck, Panzerfaust and the PIAT, the call was for anti-tank 'guns'. The Panzerschreck & Panzerfaust are rocket systems and the PIAT is a grenade launcher. Just getting picky in my old age.

| Guns, guns yes! I did see that but as you were all doing so well with the 88mm and the 17lb thought I'd send in a rocket. M1 Bazooka sorry for missing you out. Strange that no mention is made of Russian anti-tank guns they must've had one or two. Last edited by ourbill; 21-03-2006 at 07:01 PM. |
