Title: ACW Wagons
Post by: Jase on 24 October 2010, 07:52:23 AM
Hello,

For my ACW project I need several ACW supply wagons, such as the one pictured below:

Are there any in the Pendraken range? I browsed the catalogue and found BW30 Wagon with oxen team (2) in the Boer War part, but I'm not quite sure if that's what I'm looking for.

Who can help me?

Thanks!

Jase

From other threads:

'Search' can be your friend Jase  ;) :P :D 8)

GR35 is "4 wheel general service wagon with team"
- I think this is it [in my SCW Nationalists]:

SYW2 is "Supply Wagon & team"
ELM18 is "Covered wagon 2 horses"

Those might be worth a look too...but I haven't got pics...

I too think that is GR35 - but I think Nik has substituted in a cavalry figure for one of the draft horses. It does seem to be a wagon that can be used multi-period. The driver has little webbing or other WWII kit.

Yep - you're absolutely right Forbes,I have subbed a cavalry figure: the wagon comes with two 'normal' draught horses  :)

Probably best off with the suggestions above.  The SYW wagon could be an option, but it's a flat cover as opposed to a tilt style.

Thanks guys!

I just mailed Pendraken to add 5 of them to my Crisis Order.

@Nik: I used the Search function! In the Catalogue PDF that is, forgot to do that here at the forum  :-[ :-[ :D

Hehehe - if I had a pound for every time I've 'rummaged' through the forum before I've remembered the [very clever & smart] Search function, I could afford a whole new couple of armies  ;) 8)
