The T19-SP105 is the ancestor of the M7 Priest and is notably engaged in Tunisia and Italy. This halftrack is for sale in 15mm at Forged in Battle.

I wish they didn't base their vehicles |

Von Ted +1 I don't purchase vehicles pre-mounted on bases. |

Always liked that design. And it was even used as TD early on, when needed. On one occasion in Sicily, a T19 company (part of the 16th Infantry Regiment) halted a German tank attack by destroying six tanks, for the loss of one T19. But was really a stop gap measure for an SPFA. Until it was replaced by the M7. In most cases. There was even one in "Kelly's Heroes" ! There was an 75mm mounted on the M3 too, the T12 TD. linkYeah I don't like the base … I don't even like bases on figures that are "textured". A flat round or square base is good. I can do my own base terrain. If any … |

The bases on FiB stuff aren't too bad. No worse than the cast-on bases from Flames of War on their resin trucks or jeeps/kubels. For better or worse, my E50s are too big to put on a FoW Large Base (cast-on base is longer than ~60mm). I'd like a wider base to help prevent the Tank Parking Lot, but I'd have to use something like 2 Large bases to make it work. Gotta rebase the motorcycles for my scout platoon, they changed the standard from Medium to Large bases. |

I don't see how it got on the base. It didn't leave any tire tracks. If you've gotta cast it upside down, don't quit when you get to mastering the base. |
