Warlord Games Provide Armour For The WWII Italians
December 27, 2013 by brennon
Warlord Games have put together a bit of armoured support for the Italians in Bolt Action with the new Semovente 75/18. This was quite the Italian workhorse!
It was similar to the Stug that the German forces used in many ways although it was usually used in support rather than as a forward pushing assault gun. The tank was employed in North Africa during those campaigns and was quite the match against the Grant and the Sherman of the Allies.
It is quite the cool looking tank and while I don't collect Italians for Bolt Action it would be fun to roll a few of these out and show the Allies whose boss!
The tank for you?
A useful vehicle if used appropriately – it was one of the few vehicles the Italians had that could hurt the M3 and M4 tanks the Allies used in 1942/43 in the Western Desert and Sicily.
It’s also quite small when compared to it’s adversaries so it should be able to take full advantage of any available cover on the table.
And rather good looking in it own way
