From AdamW: A little tank for Lt Gruber (Treachery) (28pts)

I initially struggled to come up with an idea for the Treachery circle.  The few I thought of involved way to much time making and painting things I would never use. Although I enjoy the distraction of these side challenges, I did join the challenge with the intent of painting some useful things!

Then I decided the description of the 'back stabber, the turncoat, the faithless friend' could apply to a once cherished piece of military hardware that had been captured and pressed into service by the other side.

A hunt through the spares drawers and I found the below.  A ww2 Dutch pantserwagen M38 armoured car.

I had already painted up three of these beauties complete with orange triangles, when I picked up an unfinished army that included this one. This made this one a spare, so it has been languishing ever since.

So, an hour or so with a paint brush, this afternoon, some decals and a base and here we are. I'm sure it can be pressed into service at some point.

Quickest and simplest entry so far!

Points

1 x 15mm vehicle = 8pts

Treachery bonus = 20pts

Total 28pts

Although it breaks my heart to see one of the few Dutch armoured vehicles being taken over by the oppressor, I cannot fault your logic, Adam. Nice to see one more of these fairly rare vehicles, and a good choice for the theme. 28 points more!
