Title: US Field Battery
Post by: Hertsblue on 28 May 2013, 09:45:28 AM
This is theFOW M2A1 105mm Howitzer battery, complete with command stand, observer team, and jeep. I didn't bother painting the staff team that comes with it, since a) it doesn't seem to fulfill any function and, b) I'm an idle git.

The observer team - lost, as usual.

An M20 utility armored car seems to have crept in somehow. Ah well, hey ho!

Staff team is ABSOLUTELY vital for US battery, allows you to repeat bombardment, and that means you get to use Time On Target rule! :o

Great paint job too  8)

It's going to have to be a virtual staff team then, Lemmey. It won't be the worse thing we've done to the rules in our fight for truth and justice....  ;)

Ian is quite correct, Phil, they're 15mm Flames of War - part of a big stock I bought cheap when Hobbycraft sold them off.
