Warlord Games end of week feature round-up...
--------------------
|
|
|
Australian 40mm Bofors AA gun (Pacific): One of the most popular and recognisable anti-aircraft guns of WWII, the Bofors was used by many Allied and Axis forces.
|
|
|
Australian 2-pdr Light Anti-tank Gun (Pacific): Most anti-tank men were reassigned under the Jungle Division restructure. Those few that remained formed ‘Tank Attack’ units and were equipped with both 2pdr and 6pdr anti-tank guns supplied from Britain.
|
|
|
Australian 6-pdr anti-tank gun (Pacific): The QF 6-pdr was the highly successful replacement for the 2-pdr, its useful lifespan was extended by new developments in ammunition that improved its armour penetration capabilities allowing it to knock out heavy tanks from the flank.
|
|
|
Australian 75mm pack howitzer (Pacific): The ubiquitous 25pdr was the standard artillery piece of the Australian Army in the Pacific theatre, as it had been in the desert.
|
|
|
Australian platoon scout team (Pacific): The forward scouts led the way for their platoon, risking death at any moment. This job was rotated regularly to make sure the scouts were always alert.
|
|
|
Australian medic team (Pacific): Medical support in the jungle was vital, with tropical diseases causing more casualties than enemy fire.
|
|
|
Australian Forward Observer team (Pacific): Although the terrain prevented constant artillery support, in some key battles the Australian Field Regiment’s 25pdrs could be dragged into position to soften up a Japanese defensive position.
|
|
|
Kachin Native Irregular Squad: Kachin Native fighters fought against the Axis forces with valour and skill!
|
|
|
Battle For The Jungle: Reinforcements have arrived! Australia and her Allies and unleashed a new wave of men and equipment ready to beat the Axis forces back and to finally conquer the Pacific!
