So, after last week’s middle-aged brain-fade<\/a>, I’ve managed to get my backside into gear, bring home the correct parts and paint and assemble the two new PacFed 15mm<\/a> vehicles ! And it being a nice day, they’re painted, photographed and on the website \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"DundasTigerRelease\"<\/p>\n

The Tiger AA tank provides top cover for PacFed armoured units with its very high rate-of-fire gatling cannon, and has sufficient armour and mobility to stay in the front line where it’s needed.<\/p>\n

\"SF15-701a\"<\/p>\n

The Dundas truck is a heavy hauler which, along with the smaller Raeside utility trucks<\/a>, provides the PacFed with an armoured logistics tail.<\/p>\n

\"SF15-713\"<\/p>\n

Both models are painted in the two-tone blue camouflage of the Terran Starmarines, a force in the Hammer’s Slammers<\/a> universe.<\/p>\n
