Luchs

[chrishanley]

Is there any support for the Panzer II Ausf L, frequently called the Luchs or Lynx?
It is a Panzer II on steroids with a very different road wheel arrangement.

It would certainly be a nice addition to the fold, that's for sure.

There are two types of tanks: Centurions and targets.

Just use it as a Centurion.  I understand its only the fun that matters - I even heard that some people use Carthaginian quadriremes as Japanese destroyers

[FierceKitty]

It isn't proper to discuss such things in the mess!

Not a lot got produced (about 100?) and it came at a time in the war when the German was not doing much by way of reconnaissance .

However, that does not take away from what in a model appeals to wargamers !

Let us see what interest the thread generates.

The pitifully few operators of the 100 vehicles built are listed here:

Wehrmacht need no reconaissance.

In Soviet Russia, Red Army finds YOU.

Looking at the lists the limit is 1, plus if using historical orbats, there are only a few units that actually received them.

I think a Scout carrier or a Bren carrier for the Brits in France and early North Africa might be more profitable from a Pendraken business perspective.
