Bolt Action: Neuheiten für Briten und Deutsche

18/25pdr Gun and Limber (BEF) – 20,00 GBP
The standard British field gun of World War II was the 25-pdr gun-howitzer, a versatile weapon with a calibre of 3.45 inches (87.6mm). This was the weapon used in overwhelming numbers in every theatre, We categorise the 25-pdr as a light field gun for our purposes – although it was really an intermediate type capable of providing close range support and longer-range indirect fire. It was also pressed into service in an anti-tank role, and we’ve allowed for this by giving it a separate anti-tank shell.

Guy Ant Truck – 17,00 GBP
These smaller trucks are the equivalent size to a US ¾-ton vehicle and they perform the same kind of roles as weapons carriers and general-purpose utility vehicles. The Guy Ant, Morris CS8 and its replacement the C4 are typical of the kind. As the war progressed their role was taken by larger trucks, but there was always a need for small trucks as radio vehicles, bowsers, petrol tankers, engineering vehicles and so forth.

Sd.Kfz 251/16 Flammpanzerwagen plastic box set – 20,00 GBP
A conversion of the SdKfz 251/1 AusfD with two flame projectors mounted on the sides designated 251/16. The 2 main flame projectors were backed up by the usual shield-mounted MG34 or MG42 and an additional portable (albeit still attached by pipe to the halftrack) smaller calibre flamethrower which could be used by dismounted infantry. The crew would don protective headgear from full hoods to havy scarves and goggles. Plenty of conversion opportunities here!
Box contains 1 plastic halftrack, leaflet and decal sheet

Schönes Geschütz. Diese mitgeschleppten Bodenplatten für einen besseren Stand der Kanone finde ich ja immer wieder urig. Der Munitionskarren ist dazu noch ein nettes Detail und sorgt für mehr Atmosphäre und Realismus, ist spielerisch aber eher unnötig. Den wird man sicher auch als Missionsziel oder ähnliches einsetzen können.
Auch der Truck und das Flammenwerfer-SdKfz 251 wissen zu gefallen.
Den 18/25pdr hat Warlord bereits letztes Jahr auf der Salute als WIP vorgestellt. Schade, dass sie so lange mit der Veröffentlichung gewartet haben. Ich wollte ihn mir eigentlich für die frühe Epoche in Nordafrika zulegen, habe aber doch zu Blitzkrieg gegriffen, da ich nicht so lange warten wollte.
Insgesamt wissen die Produkte zu gefallen. Der 251/16D wird garantiert irgendwann seinen Weg in meine Sammlung finden.
