Roll Out With Churchill’s Kingforce For Flames Of War
March 30, 2018 by brennon
As part of the Armoured Fist update for Flames Of War, the team at Battlefront have put together a new boxed set which will be available at the start of April, Churchill's Kingforce.
Inside the set, you get three plastic Churchill Tanks, three Shermans, six Universal Carriers, and two Tank Crew sprues for you to add to the character of your force. You will also find all of the cards and rules you need for playing the 4th Edition of the game.
The Churchill was able to get into battle as part of the Kingforce and by the end of the Battle of El Alamein, they had destroyed five panzers and three anti-tank guns for the loss of one tank. The Churchill tank had shown that it was ready for battle. It was capable of taking punishment and handing it out in spades.
It sounds like a very hefty force to bring to the tabletop, complete with heavy armour and big guns. If you're interested in learning more about the Desert War our Historical Editor, Oriskany is currently working through a series on the events surrounding the Americans In Tunisia.
Make sure to give it a look!

A good looking box.
Tunisia where the Churchill’s surprised the Germans attacking from unexpected points due to its hill climbing abilities.
Very nice box. St. Gloria from GuP has given me some soft spot for Churchill tanks.
