Thank you Dale and Bjarne for stepping up. Dale is doing the Yugslav forces and Bjarne is still choosing. I am sure you both of you will make excellent writeups.

Dale and Bjarne has stepped up for Yugoslavia and Ireland (later perhaps the UK) and they are both very welcome additions!
 
Right now it would be great to have someone who would volonteer for doing France, Japan and the different ART of all the countries!

There are two new HQs without writeups: Tito and Zola. These are the partisan HQs. If someone is interested, we have plenty of examples (57) of HQ writeups done by Grayshaft.

This is not Zola, this is Zoya (Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya (1923–1941), a Soviet partisan, Hero of the Soviet Union) :

The choice of Zoya strikes me as slightly odd; I recall reading about her and I believe she died in early '42. I guess it's a symbolic choice to some extent.

She died in November 41 (from Wikipedia).

Nope not really but we are not aiming on writing a book about each subject! [:)] Thanks for stepping up Dale!

On another note I just recieved the finished chinese (except ART) from Wosung. Both Communist and Nationalist! Huzzah! [:)]

Yes, please do the write up on Zoya.

[Since she has been dead lo these many years, I assume you did not mean the other meaning of "do her".][:D]

SPerdomo is welcome to the fold, he will be taking over the responsibility of the Nationalist Spanish Army. Bienvenido!

The Chinese are now all formatted and they are very interesting reads. I will post a taste of Wosungs skills soon.

Great! I will mark you down for them right now.

And yes you can get a pretty good idea of what we are after from looking through this thread for examples.

I am not sure what you mean with criteria of the units in WIF. Can you clarify?

When you are done you can just PM me the writeup and I will format it for you. If you want to do more after the first I will give you some pointers in regards to the formatting.
