From ROBERTT 15mm TANKS [40 POINTS]

Here are some tanks.  I am working on catchy or humous titles, maybe next year.  Ever since reading of the use of a Valentine Bridge Layer at Imphal in Burma I have wanted one.  Bunker Miniatures have a 3D printed version which I snapped up.  It arrived with hardly any supports or flash and was a thing of beauty, and then I froze.  It has been on my painting table for nearly half a year, looming at me and filling me with dread.  What if I got it wrong and messed up?  I don't think I have but it took this challenge to get me to lick my paint brush and get on with it.

The other 4 tanks are 1 A9 Cruiser and 3 A10s for the BEF.  I have recently started collecting a British force for 1940 in France but lacked any tanks.  I swapped these ready made but not painted from my regular gaming pal Andy.  I gave him some beautifully painted desert A10s that I had picked up with the intention of painting over them with bronze green.  He called me a heretic among other things and so we swapped.  I think they are from Plastic Soldier Company.  I know that Andy complained bitterly about the thirteen parts that required assembly for the turret alone. (I think it was thirteen, my memory is failing.  I know it was too many).  I have not painted any unit markings on these as my hand is too shaky and I wouldn't be able to see them on the table anyway.

Without further ado, lets get on with the show.

I have always based my vehicles ever since my previous tanks' barrels broke when travelling and I find them easier to pick up.  Also it means that I cannot place my armour "wheel to wheel" which is a pet peeve of mine.

I realise now that I should have given the bridgelayer its own centrefold spread, but hopefully you can spot it. 

If my maths is any good, I count 5 x 15mm tanks = 40 points.

From DaveD  . 15mm tanks right up my street indeed . Always nice to see engineering vehicles always a good scenario plot point. Or share the PSC over engineering issue - less is more - 40 it is !.
