I do like the quality of the models from this company and have many of their WW2 offerings. I just wished they would go more into moderns.

Isn't this sort of like the Maus? A tank that never went into production.

@Landorl: About like the American T28/T95 'Doom Turtle', just a couple prototypes. Rather fun, though.

I should add that there is an entry for the Tortoise in the 'Late War Leviathans' fan-made book for Flames v3. Pretty gross:

Very Slow Tank, Front Armor 16, Side 8, Top 2, Twin Hull MGs, Coax MG, Overloaded, Unreliable.
Main Gun is a 32pdr, 40"range, ROF1, AT17, FP2+, Hull Mounted, Semi-Indirect Fire

Platoon of 2x tanks for 540pts, can be taken in any Latewar British army as the Divisional Antitank platoon.
