The RAM Kangaroo APCs were used until the end of the Second World War, notably during the campaigns in the Netherlands and Germany. The Kangaroos enabled the infantry to advance at the same pace as the tanks, which allowed better coordination with the other armoured vehicles.
Points
3 - 28mm Vehicles x 20 Points = 60 Points
12 - 28mm Foot x 5 Points = 60 Points (discretion of the minion for sure since they are chopped off at the knees)
Total 110 Points

Lovely work Rob! I think the Kangaroos look excellent, but its your passenger kitbash which I think is truly inspired - well done!
This post has personal interest for me as my great-uncle served in the Algonquin Regiment during WWII, and from my understanding the regiment was sometimes deployed in Kangaroos. I'll definitely think of your work here when I decide to add some Kangaroos to my force.

Nicely done Rob, you don't want your foot sloggers wearing out any boot leather.
ReplyDeleteExcellent job! The removable crews are a great idea too
ReplyDeleteGreat work and removable crew excellent for game play.
ReplyDeleteA terrific trio of APC's. Nice work on the conversions.
ReplyDeleteNice work on the APCs but like Curt I think the passenger stands are standout
ReplyDeleteExcellent work Rob. Love the crew.
ReplyDeleteThe Rams are great, and I sure like your removable infantry!
ReplyDeleteCracking stuff, good idea with the figures too
ReplyDeleteImpressive output continues - good to see this project. The conversions look great.
ReplyDeleteThe passenger sabots are great!
ReplyDeleteThank you gentlefolk for your kind words. I knew I couldn't have the kangaroos without mounts and I wanted to be able to quickly determine which APC had unloaded its passengers. I may yet add magnets to the base of the sabots to keep them from falling out.
ReplyDeleteNice work, Robert! :)
