Brits. I'd like to see a Churchill, Bren carrier, Typhoon, a late model Spitfire with Griffin engine and bubble canopy, desert patrol vehicles, etc. etc.

I've never been a fan of the Russians or most of their equpment. The only Russian vehicles I like are the IS2 and ISU-152.

Bren carrier would be nice and a crusader tank and a complete set of figs. If they had russians i would buy their t-34 tank :wink:

Gosh, you've got me in a pickle! I'm torn between my feelings of British patriotism (Great Britain is far cooler than this motly hodgepodge we call the USA, but you have to live there to find that out :P ) and the fact that most of our German XD vehicles are in Eastern front schemes and would look great taking on the Russians 8)

Bring on the British figures and tanks, armoured cars, etc.

This important area of expansion represents more than the Brits, themselves. It includes all the countries that received British war materiel (like Russia) and includes all those countries in the British Commonwealth.

For example, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, Malta, India, Pakistan, Burma, Hong Kong. Sinapore, Malaysia, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Samoa, Palistine, Iran, Iraq, Egypt - in fact, most Arabic countries, many African and al ot more.

Many of these countries were in World War II for years before the USA joined in.

Also, consider how popular the Spitfire has been, and what a good seller it still is. It commands some high prices for aircraft with D-day invasion stripes. Could this be a marketing hint? (Yup!).

Plus, there is so much cool armour & funnies to go with it. Not forgetting all the cool aircraft. Sea Fury, Tempest, Typhoon, Mosquito, Huricane to mention just a few....

I've alerted Homeland Security to your un-American behavior. Or maybe that was Domino's Pizza? Well, you'll either be headed to Gitmo or eating a crappy Domino's pizza within the next 30 minutes both of which are terrifying. :shock: :P

I'd really like to see a Hurricane. Think of the options; Battle of Britain with the Spitfire and Me-109E, North Afrika with the Stuka, and a winter scheme for the Russians. A Churchill would be awsome too.

I would prefer Brits too. The Russians had nothing that I like. I don't like their uniforms, planes and tanks.
And again - it is spelled WeHrmacht, guys...
