After construction is completed there are three finishing options provided which are During step 1 of stage four my instruction booklet has a correction glued in place which I believe was an error picked up during test builds and it is good to see corrections in the booklet rather than as a separate piece of paper. A nice inclusion during the construction is the use of CAD images/prints being used as a visual guide on how things should look when in place. The instructions guide uses line drawings which cover construction in 22 stages, however as is usual with a number of manufacturers Bronco Models included the sub assemblies increase the number of stages in reality. With those areas covered we get to the actual construction guide. Next you get a parts guide which is always worth checking the contents against I will say I have not had parts missing from a Bronco Models kit yet that I am aware of. Looking between the covers you see the usual guide to icons used during construction and a painting guide listing paints by colour in the three languages already mentioned and also the following paint manufacturers The booklet starts with a short introduction by Phil Greenwood in English, German and Chinese. The booklet is printed to the Bronco Models usual high standard by using a good quality semi gloss paper. To start this review I will take a look at the instruction booklet first. Inside you will find the sprues individually packed in there own plastic bags with the exception of duplicated sprues and the contents break down as follows The contents fit well in the box and arrived to me intact. The kit is supplied in the now standard Bronco Models packaging standard consirting of a cardboard tray and card lid the lid has a very well done and eye catching artwork on it. At the end of this review I have provided some links to sites I found of help and I think you may find them of interest as well. I cannot guarantee the accuracy of the information I have supplied here as it is from several locations and no two sources seem to agree 100% and that includes the information supplied by Phil Greenwood on the front of the instruction booklet. F (VK18.01) was produced between April and December 1942 as an infantry support tank of which a grand total of 30 were built, This tank type did see active service on the Eastern front with the 1st and 12th Panzer Divisions in 1943.

KG Cochenhausen will be entirely on the other side of the river in 2 to 3 short hours, I thought.When this kit was announced by Bronco Models I remember thinking I have no knowledge of this vehicles at all, a few days of digging on the web produced some good information on a vehicle that was also called ‘Little Tiger’ apparently. Fine and dandy, the trains appear to be on time. The bicycle company was ordered to reconnoiter another crossing downstream (D) so KG Cochenhausen can bypass Rochefort (C) and continue pushing northwest. The crossing at Rochefort (C) was reconnoitered by a bicycle (?!) company (E) and is also defended by US Army infantry battalion. The crossing at Jemelle (B) is useless because it can't be accessed from the south. An earlier recon mission of the crossing at Hargimont (A) showed that the site is well defended by a US Army infantry battalion (unfortunately a reconnaissance company got decisively engaged there and is fighting for its life right now).

The first significant water obstacle is the Lomme river. It's the early afternoon of D1 and the 2nd PzD is on a tight timetable to secure a crossing over the Meuse at or near Dinant (some 20 kilometers northwest of the sector shown in this map). A fine war gaming evening and a painful reminder of what Command Ops is all about.
