Much undervalued as an ancient urban assault weapon. Cheaper and faster than scaling ladders.

On my work bench, three cheapo army trucks, having Milliput added to sort out the profile of their tyres.

These could well end up being jump off points for my Brits in Malaya.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen the Malayan Emergency gamed. Should be interesting.
I get lockdown, but I get up again.

I'm also going to insert a wooden block into the chassis, it will give it more weight, and hopefully help with the rigidity so the flexing doesn't crack the paintwork. I've also tarted them up with stowage and a searchlight for one. very happy with these.

And sorry to be tedious, not the Emergency. These are going to be the platoon transport for 2nd Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders Dec 41.

Not tedious at all, merely accurate. I don’t know why I assumed the ‘Emergency’.
Or ‘Opportunity’ depending on perspective :D
