I visited warlord games in Nottingham yesterday,and wow,I spent,well it was over £500 on the 15mm Waterloo,and 28mm North Africa,I asked if they had the Africa Korps Wespe,they checked and hadn’t,so they produced / made 2 for me,service was beyond amazing,thank you guys,thank you warlord games.
Sounds like they really looked after you.
@@ModellingforAdvantage they did,they now have a customer for life
So happy that you had such a great experience! Enjoy all of your goodies!
There was no Wespe in North Africa.
The drum-fed LMG is a Vickers K, a modified aircraft machine gun with a higher rate of fire.
Thanks
Unboxing and history lesson rolled into one - nice job guys
Thank you
What a wonderful collection of books behind you gentlemen.
Thank you
The Officer has a De Lisle suppressed carbine which works for a marksman specialist weapon. Very handy for dealing with sentries when you can can't get hands on.
The liberty engine was fitted to the centaur but it lacked the power of the merlin that was fitted to the cromwell.
Originally the centaur didn't have an engine, but then they found it sit well on the landing craft.
Lots of cool options in the build you can do. Probably a very good entry point for someone flirting with jumping into the period.
And not too expensive, compared to the bigger sets.
Very in-depth review, from historical context to actual model and unit review. Subscribed!
Glad you enjoyed it; welcome aboard.
Great video. Thanks for the unboxing and review. Thinking about getting it for an expansion of my Canadians.
Go for it!
Great video as always gents. I really appreciate the history you guys add to the unboxings. Hope to see this army in a battle report soon!
Glad to be of service.
The LMG is the Vickers K.
Also its the fairburn Sykes knife along with the larger version, the smatchet.
Thanks
Modelling for advantage! Great unboxing.
Thanks! 👍
Late to the party here guys but im just getting into Bolt Action and this video was great. Really informative, thanks
Glad it was helpful! We mix in a bit of history with all our reviews.
The Maxim gun is actually one of the longest used guns of all time. It's still used in the Russo-Ukraine war to this day. There's a rather jarring picture of two maxims set up in a dual mount with a red dot sight on them. Given that they have almost no heating issues if supplied with enough water and that they're extremely easy for someone to operate (even alone), they make extremely good defensive weapons to this day.
Interesting, thanks.
Very good unboxing once again, thanks. I have the old commando box somewhere in my pile of opportunity which I'll get round to eventually! Also, shocking lack of 'going commando' jokes, what gives?
Fair question, we were obviously off our game when we recorded this.
Just got the commandos from amazon and it is the 25 box with the separate arms and weapons. Also no vickers k, just brens. Since I am planning to do a Canadian army, this set looks like a good one to add to what I have.
Not sure if the new kit is compatible with the old old - would be interested to know if you end up buying both.
@@ModellingforAdvantage considering the weapons are attached to arms in the new and separate in the old, at least that much would not be, but the 'holding arms' and the rest looks exactly the same, so bits and packs and beret/helmets likely are. I will very likely be getting the Brit/Canadian army, the new commando box and this one as well. So will report back once that happens. Thinking of using some of the commandos as the Canadian W Commandos, also known I think as beach commandos. And or get some Americans and make some Devils Brigade.
Centaur was the only one to have the howitzer the Cromwell only had the British QF 75mm as armament> There was the Cavalier which had a 6 pounder in place of the 94mm howitzer of the Centaur otherwise both of them was roughly the same in all the other areas. And the stretched 17 pdr Cromwell is known as the original Challenger they basically added an extra road wheel and so was able to make enough space to put it in a lengthen turret and it did see some action after D-day to VE day in NW Europe
The Biggest difference between the two was the engine the centaur had the liberty engine where the cromwell had the meteor engine the meteor engine being a version of the merlin engine in the spitfire.
I think you'll find the Cromwell VI and VIII both mounted the 95mm CS howitzer.
I wonder if this kit can be kitbashed as Chindits using Aussie heads from the Commonwealth set?
Maybe, although I cannot say for certain the heads fit, I have not tried.
Hey if your still womdering they do infact mix. Add some us m1 carbines for even more unique units
@@NCR_Ranger_7718 awesome, thanks for the feedback.
Love a good unboxing
Happy to help.
Machine gun go brrrrrr
True fact
Comment for the algorithm oh yeah yeah
Much appreciated
They are 1943+ Commandos. Green beret. Royal Navy. Royal Marines.
Makes sense.
Enjoyed the video and looking forward to a game in future!@@ModellingforAdvantage
@@ModellingforAdvantage Having said this, they could represent any 1943 + special service brigade, airlanding or irregular spec ops I guess. No Thompsons or woolly hats.
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
If I buy something from the store, does it come with a "Packed by Mrs Kaiser" card ??😅
Haha, we might have to look into that. She usually puts in a business card and often a thank you note.
That’ll be that special commando Thompson variant for shooting round corners! 🤣
Does anyone know what the numbers around the turret on the Centaur are for?
Which numbers mate?
They are to aid artillery style indirect shooting. I think they're also a sort of traditional carry-on from ship turret markings.
Fairbairn Sykes commando knife
Thanks.
Hello, just wondering if you fancied doing something a bit different? I’ve got a British airborne list all built and painted but I want to pretty them up by putting patches and ranks on just wondering if you could help with what goes where historically 😁 cheers Tommy 👍
British marking in WW2 are a total mess for everything except 21st Armygroup - all the info you can find online repeats the same info. Fortunately for you, you are using presumably a '44 force, so you can go with that. Harry over on Fog of War did a great video on the markings if you are interested in that sort of thing.
@@ModellingforAdvantage okay lovely thank you for that information 👍
