Thanks for the comments on the Snipes, I had hoped to make use of them in the past few months, but we have been unable to find a forum for them yet. Sorry to say they aren't going into IM (unless someone does a Snipe model for us), however they will either go to the pease1 site or else to AW-N when it makes it's triumphant return in a month or three.

I have a good 3-view in the Scale of Kings, if that helps; you could always scale it up [Matt! 80)]. If you want it, I'll see if I can get it scanned it for you, if no-one else can help. > Tally Ho Horrido!
