link A quick show off post today for some early war British Light "Armour". We have a Desert Campaign starting soon so these will be in action in a couple of weeks time along with a new CS9 Armoured Car (also on the blog post). The models are 28mm Warlord Games with a mix of Warlord and Perry Commanders. With the recent Blitzkrieg Miniatures offers I have got a house full of early war vehicles, so this is a good start. All the best Ken

I love this sand/brown/slate gray camo!
Painted it on my desert Matildas years ago. Would you have links etc info regarding it?
(Nevermind, noticed the camo name, Caunter Scheme, at your blog -thanks!) |

28mm Mk VI? I thought this thread was about a rare variant of the German Tiger tank armed with the Guerlich squeeze-bore tank gun. What do I find? A couple of lousy British light tanks. So disappointed. B |

I can't see the magnets on these. Are they underneath? |

Cheers all, Blutarski, surely some paper thin armour and an MG is more exciting than 100mm of armour and an 88, where's your sense of adventure ! 4th Cuirass, I based them in a three on a table sized magnet, just for you :-) Regards Ken

Hi Yarkshire Gamer - " … surely some paper thin armour and an MG is more exciting …" Dunno. Didn't most of them end up as stationary kiosks on the road between Thermopylae and Athens? ;>] B |

I thought this thread was about a rare variant of the German Tiger tank armed with the Guerlich squeeze-bore tank gun. No, that would have been "Panzer VI Ausf. E/2 mit 2.8 cm PaK". Besides, is there any evidence that they were actually ever employed at a desert? |
