Title: Useful Items sections added to the website!
Post by: Leon on 27 April 2024, 05:47:41 PM
We've taken a bit of time this weekend to create some new sections of the website containing all of our 'useful' items from the various ranges. 

So if you head over to our 10mm Scenery & Terrain section here: https://www.pendraken.co.uk/10mm-scenery you'll now find new categories for Animals, Casualties, Civilians, Equipment, Wagons and Vehicles.  There's all sorts of interesting stuff in these, from water buffalo and camp followers through to jerry cans and trailers.

Hopefully that makes it a little easier to find the useful stuff!

Brilliant.
I immediately saw 10 packs I'd never stumbled across before.

Great stuff, very handy way to spot things in ranges I don't normally look at

Useful. Spotted 1 mistook - photos of FL43 and 44 are identical. Also Landys with headlights in the wings shouldn't have the spare on the bonnet, both were relocated on the same european traffic regs.

I think you need your specs on there, those are two different models!  The soft top has the flatter canvas roof but the hard top has got the ridges on it.

Quite.  AFAIK the change to the spare wheel location was with the TD5 Defender model.  All earlier Rovers, certainly in my unit up to 1993, including 1st Gulf War (Op Telic), had bonnet mounted spares.

Very useful arrangement, thank you, but are those cows really cows or are they still bullocks?  ;)

I wonder if it was intentional to include FPX1 "19th century generic work party" in the page of casualties - at least I've used them as grave diggers alongside an ACW ambulance.
Cheers,

Nope, they should have been in the Civilians section, all fixed now!

"No, I don't agree with the cliché that wargamers are anal..."

[See online disagreement about the placement of a spare wheel on 1/150th Landrovers]

I know! Hard to believe, but it occasionally happens.
