From PhilH: Improvising at the Golem's Haunt (40 Points)

The Golem's Haunt: "something re-animated, stitched-together, bolted-together, re-created from steel, clay, earth, etc." I don't have any golems to hand, but what I did have though, was the reasonably successful result of a dabble in trying to print vehicles using my FDM 3D printer. The Spanish Civil War is not as well served as WWII for .stl files, but there are a couple for improvised armoured trucks suitable for 28mm gaming. Spain's armed forces were poorly funded before the outbreak of the Civil War, and had little interest in developing armoured vehicles and tactics. They did have a dozen or so French FT-17 tanks (more on those soon...), modern for World War 1 and that performed acceptably during the Rif War in Morocco, a couple of Scnheider CA1 and the indigenous Bilbao armoured car used by the security forces. But the workers of Spain's industrial regions, rising to counter the Nationalist coup, hasily built all sorts of madcap improvised armour, bolting dubious quality steel plates to trucks and tractors.

These vehicles were probably of little or no military value, moving painfully slowly on overburdened engines. But they doubtless cheered the militias who built them, who could put their skills to use to strive for their Anarchist utiopia.

This .stl file is by the prolific Deweycatproductions on wargaming3D. It's based on a real vehicle, and I've replicated what I could make out of the markings. I left off the meant for the front vision port and added the support struts with brass wire, giving it a ramshackle, amost post-apocalyptic road warrior look. It's also the first model off the printer to see any paint, huzzah! A quick google image search later, and I found more information (in Spanish) on this vehicle on this blog http://donostiando.blogspot.com/ . An excerpt on this vehicle: In the image, from a film on the entrance of the rebellious troops in Tolosa, you can see a "tiznado", in whose body, full of painted with the red and black flags of anarcho-syndicalism and initials like FAI-CNT, AIT or UHP [3], there is an inscription that stands out above the others: "Rojo-Trincherpe". Therefore, it follows that it was manufactured in one of the workshops in the Pasaia neighborhood.

Pasaia is a coastal town east of Bilbao and San Sebastian, so this vehicle would have served with the militias on the northern front. With a couple of mine for scale:

One 28mm vehicle, plus the Chamber bonus adds a tidy 40 points.
