Today’s new release is a mix of new 6mm models in the Hammer’s Slammers<\/a> range – models that have already been released in 15mm and are now making the move down to our smaller scale.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ander’s Legion<\/a> get four new support vehicles to complete their ToE. The Machete AA vehicles are based on the chassis of the Rapier heavy tank and come in two variants – one with four tri-barrel powerguns, the other with twin rapid fire lasers and Manta missiles.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Legion also gets the Kopis Recce vehicle with an open turret mounting twin lasers, and the Astrapi AA variant mounting the same weapons in a high-speed ball mount.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Slammers regiment<\/a> themselves get two new variants of the Icarus M2 blower tank. The M2A1 version has a smaller turret than the ubiquitous M2A4 version but still mounts the 20cm powergun. The experimental M2A3 carries a heavy ruby laser in the same small turret; this variant wasn’t adopted by the Slammers but saw service in the Neu Friesland army. The two vehicles pictured below are in the silver\/black parade colours of the NF Iron Brigade.<\/p>\n
