Produktbeschreibung
Hot on the heels of the Afrika Korps army comes the complete 1500pt British 8th Army Motor Company. This army contains a two platoon Lorried Motor Company and HQ, a Scout Platoon, an MG Platoon with Bren Carriers, a four gun Royal Horse Artillery Battery, a Light Tank Platoon with Crusaders and a Heavy Tank Platoon with Sherman III Diesels and two unique objective markers in the form of an ammo dump and blown up Crusader II. This box has everything you need to get started with a Desert Rats army and gives you the fundamentals for building your force further.
The Riflemen of the 8th Army are hardy desert veterans skilled in navigating vast featureless expanses of desert, finding their foe, and defeating them. When they're not raiding the enemy in well-armed "Jock Columns", the Motor Companies dig in, forming all-round defensive positions on which enemy attacks falter and break.
This boxed set contains all the models shown in the organisational diagrams. Also included is a sheet of decals containing divisional
formation and squadron symbols as well as stowage to customise your models giving your army a unique look.
Vehicles and guns have individual assembly diagrams. The Flames Of War Quartermasters Set and the army-specific Desert Rats Paint Set, not included in the boxed set, contain all the paints, brushes and painting guides needed to complete your army.
As an additional bonus, also included are two unique army-specific objective markers. Desert Rats, The Intelligence Handbook on British Armoured Forces has detailed company options, historical details and painting guides. |
