About this product:

• The Churchill was undoubtedly one of the most successful and famous British tanks of the Second World War, despite its involvement in the disastrous Dieppe raid;
  
• Initially under-armed, it was gradually up-gunned and was nevertheless loved by its crews: its cross-country ability was unrivalled and it was less inclined to ‘brew-up’ from a direct hit than the Sherman;
  
• Named after the Prime Minister, Winston Churchill, it went on to prove its worth in North Africa, including the famous battle of Longstop Hill, where it surprised the German defenders by climbing what had been assumed to be impassable slopes;
  
• Scale - 28mm - 1/56.

In this plastic kit there are:

• 7 turret variations with 4 gun options, allowing you to build the following marks:
  - MkIII - with 6pdr gun
  - MkIV - Cast turret with 6 pdr gun
  - MkV - Cast turret with 95m Howitzer
  - MkVI - Cast turret and Welded turret with 75mm gun
  - North Africa 75
  - AVRE (Armoured Vehicle Royal Engineers) with 290mm Petard Mortar (aka the flying dustbin!)
  
• In games of Bolt Action the Churchill is a heavy tank, with a range of gun options described above, including the Petard Mortar that counts as a short ranged heavy howitzer. It can be included in any amoured platoon.
  
• This vehicle can also be used in games of Achtung Panzer!, the game of close-quarters tank-on-tank combat, its rules can be found in the Achtung Panzer! rulebook.
