We previewed<\/a> a bunch of new 6mm models for the Joy of Six<\/a> show – and I managed to get the cooling tower<\/a> painted and photographed! The first of these have gone onto the website today, along with (thanks to a well timed delivery of etched brass bits) a new vehicle that hasn’t previously been seen.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Rapier MBT is being phased in by Anders Legion<\/a> to replace their inventory of obsolescent Cutlass tanks. It’s a tracked vehicle with a large, sloped turret equipped with a heavy railgun and light ATGW launcher.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Xiphos is a rather unusual hybrid tank destroyer\/combat car. It’s an open backed vehicle, with the rear of the crew compartment protected by a mesh splinter screen, similar to those deployed on Slammers Combat Cars<\/a>. Primary armament is either a railgun (the same calibre as that on the Rapier but with a shorter barrel) or a pair of breech-loading gun-mortars. It also has three tri-barrel powergun mounts – one on the roof operated by the commander standing in the rear, and another pair mounted over the rear wings. Anders Legion are re-equipping with these in place of their current fleet of Uralvagonzavod Halberds. The 6mm model comes with separate tri-barrels and an etched brass piece for the screen – you’ll need tweezers to assemble this one!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Although we don’t yet have the rest of the Flaming Sword of the Holy Brotherhood<\/a> ready (a bit of a FUBAR with one of the moulds…), we wanted to get the M12 out as it’s a great little model. The M12L14 tank destroyer is a fusion-powered blower, mounting a 20cm powergun and remote-control tri-barrel. It’s used by the Flaming Sword in their heavy detachments and as the primary armoured vehicle of Broglie’s Legion<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Finally for this week, a handy little Radome building which makes an ideal game objective. The dome is the same as our larger radar bunker<\/a>, so you can create a radar array similar to the Fylingdales Moor<\/a> installation.<\/p>\n
