From DaveD - Cold War gone Hot - part2 - Soviet Armour (68 points)

I am continuing the occasionally foray in the GHQ lead pile to build up the modern micro armour forces - well if you can call early 1980's modern.  There is still plenty to go at.

I have the completed the T64's from the lead pile which are the start of the my Soviet tank forces for my WARPAC armies. The T64 is sometimes forgotten about compared to the T62, and T72 .The T-64 would only be used by the Soviet Army and never exported. The tank equipped elite and regular formations in Eastern Europe and elsewhere, the T-64A model being first deployed with East Germany's Group of Soviet Forces in Germany. Production was well over 6000 units , and it went on to be used in development into the T80. Its going to be the mainstay of my forces as they roll from East Germany into the decadent West!

 



34 scoring models - 68 points

MilesR: Yet gads the Soviets hordes are coming in tiny little tanks - who amongst us doesn't have fond memories of micro armor shenanigans.  The Decadent West should tremble in fear!

  11. That would be an A10 pilot's dream, if he lived long enough to make a pass. So impressive.
