Panzer IV Ausf D Joins The fray

This is the first of my German Armour to get DONE!

It’s a great addition to any platoon in an infantry support role. Being armed with a light howitser and two Medium Machine Guns, will make it very effective at cutting down massed waves of enemy infantry, or blowing them out of ruined buildings.

It will have trouble if it comes up against enemy armour, however that is not it’s role.

If I add this tank to my previously completed Panzergrenadier Squad with it’s half track, I will have both the core troop and vehicle choices for a ‘Stalingrad Armoured Kampfgruppe Reinforced Platoon’ from the ‘Stalingrad Campaign’ book. To complete the unit at minimum strength, all I need is a Junior Leutnant. This will give me a very mobile anti infantry force, to act as a fire brigade unit to exploit break throughs, plug gaps in my own line and bring decisive fore power to where it can turn the tide.

I plan to develop this small unit into a larger force. At the moment it is very effective as a mobile anti infantry force, and will be great for capturing vital objectives, but is very vulnerable to anti tank weapons. I like the challenge that different units bring, and look forward to using these guys in future games.
