Does the "Littlejohn Adaptor" shout "You couldn't make it up!" at the enemy?

Excellent work, Purps.
Peninsular command and AdCs, and a squadron of Mamluks, on the go at my place.
And goddam it, if the latest Frostgrave Kickstarter parcel hasn't just arrived...

Re: What's on your workbench?
All that trouble with the turret, and the end result is a paltry hand-cranked effort with a 2lb-er.
They’d have done better to try for a mini hetzer type thing.

Re: What's on your workbench?
The Belgians put an Italian 90mm in a Bren carrier - there’s one in Brussels military museum.
Whilst that is clearly insane, it does show that they could have put a 6lb-er on a Bren Carrier and they’d have had a viable light armoured antitank vehicle at well under the weight limit.

I’d rather set off a 90mm in a Bren Carrier.
Re: What's on your workbench?
That’s a Saturday night in Lincolshire. And the Bren Carrier is really a Ford Escort? And well, 90mm... really?

I assumed it was short for ‘Brenda’.
And if it’s any consolation, the 90mm was a short barrelled version.

I'm not sure whether the Alecto came under the airborne weight limit, but it was a mini hetzer type thing.
And it appears possible that the spams may have used a few locusts in Alsace. Well, I never.
