Notwithstanding the irritating website bug<\/a>, today sees the slightly-later-than-planned release of the first of our promised new 15mm Hammer’s Slammers<\/a> models. The uparmoured M2A4FUA command tank<\/strong> fills a gap in the Slammers’ TOE and allows later Slammers\/Friesland Defence Force units to field the correct version of their command tank. Slammers logistic units get the M9A10 Cargo Car<\/strong>, an open flatbed version of the standard Combat Car which is also used by Harris’ Commando.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Lightning Division also gets two new vehicles that allows them to field full detachments. Both are also based on the combat car hull, the M9A14 Crew Car<\/strong> being a variant of the command car with two roof mounted gatling turrets and room for an infantry team. The M9A16 Calliope Car<\/strong> pairs the cargo car chassis with an 8-barrel 2cm calliope system for anti-aircraft\/anti-missile defence. The latter vehicle is also used by other mercenary units. With the release of these vehicles, the Lightning Division now also get two Detachment Packs which make up full units to match those on the LD Detachment Card<\/a>. These packs include vehicles, infantry figures, stowage, infantry bases and other bits and pieces so that they are a complete force in a box for the Hammer’s Slammers:the Crucible<\/a> rules system.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Finally, the M12 Tank Destroyer<\/strong> is used by both Broglie’s Legion and the Flaming Sword of the Holy Brotherhood. This is a large, low-slung blower-hulled vehicle with a fixed 15cm powergun.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We’ve also started to roll out new metal parts for some of the vehicles. All blower tank variants now get new castings for their main gun, tri-barrel and the mine clearance plates, and the rear hatch of the command car\/crew car and top screen of the uparmoured combat car have also been replaced. Finally, we’ve cleaned up the masters and made new moulds for the Lightning Division and Waldheim Dragoon blower tank guns, Lightning Division gatling turrets and the crane from the E8 Wrecker.<\/p>\n
