Bulge: British Direct Only Releases // Flames Of War
Shop Flames Of War @ Store.OnTableTop
The first preview set shows off some interesting kits. You've got the CMP 3-Ton Lorry which will be handy if you're seeking to protect something vital. You've then got a couple of amphibious vehicles with the LVT-4 Water Buffalos and the DUKW Section. Now you just need to come up with some excellent scenarios where you're powering through rivers and other bodies of water on the hunt for the enemy.
The second set offers up some options for scouting ahead. Armoured Cars and scouting vehicles are always cool and make a nice change from just seas of tanks.

You can add the Matador into the mix alongside the Sawn-Off Daimler and the Staghound. A wonderful set of miniatures that will be great for filling in the gaps in your British army. You've got the infantry and you've got the big tanks. These sets offer up something that slots nicely into the middle and fulfils more specialist roles.
Talking of specialist kit, how about throwing the Tulip Launcher into the mix for your Sherman tanks?
Tulip Rocket Launcher // Flames Of War
This pack allows you to add some rocket launchers onto the turret of your tank, offering up some more firepower when it comes to tackling the Axis. Just be careful and fire them off early before someone ends up plinking the side of your hull and setting one of them off! It should be noted, you don't get the tank in the kit as it's just the rocket launchers.
Building on neat sets for the Bulge: British, you can also pick up the pack for Lieutenant-Colonel Frost.
Lieutenant-Colonel Frost // Flames Of War
He was an airborne officer that led the British at Arnhem Bridge during the Battle Of Arnhem during Operation Market Garden. He fought in North Africa, Sicily and Italy until he was injured and captured at Arnhem. Still, he had a happy ending and ended up being a beef cattle farmer in West Sussex!
All of these releases are available for you to snap up from Battlefront Miniatures this weekend!
Are you going to be snapping these up?
"A wonderful set of miniatures that will be great for filling in the gaps in your British army..."
The DUKW Section is the standout here (for me). It’s the first one I’ve seen with seated infantry (although it seems they are US infantry shown rather than British). But I’ll be getting some (for either army) for those “Crossing of the Rhine” scenarios 🙂
Good looking force’s for breaching German border defences.
