Today we have a new addition to the stable of Centurions<\/a>, the multi-wheeled campaign vehicles used by many mercenary forces in the Hammerverse. Centurions are large and roomy, allowing detachments to travel in relative comfort with plenty of space for equipment and supplies. They’re not generally supposed to go anywhere near the action, with infantry carrier variants disgorging their troops behind the lines, and any armed variants are mostly used as support vehicles, either air defence or artillery. You can read more about the history of the Centurion here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

15mm Centurion Gorgon<\/p><\/div>\n

However, the Hellenic Heliodorus Regiment<\/a> decided to go one further. Working with manufacturers JTTF Industries, they removed the turrets from three surplus C4H6 Hog artillery vehicles and, after modifying and reinforcing the turret rings, paired them with turrets taken from a trio of damaged Rheinmetall RA16A2 Helheims, dubiously obtained through the grey market. As well as a pair of massive gatling coil guns, these are also armed with twin launchers for the Heliodorus’ Gerakiou<\/em> variant of the ubiquitous Kestrel anti-tank missile. The resulting variant is known as the C4G6 Gorgon<\/em>, and the three vehicles (now named Stheno, Euryale, and Medusa by the crews) have proved to be very effective in urban actions supporting the regiment’s infantry. After the success of the conversions, JTTF are now rumoured to be marketing other heavily armed versions of the Centurion.<\/p>\n
