The Hansom Tank. Jedadiah Tankovsky built the first Hansom tank in 1875. Originally conceived as a mode of transport for important dignitaries and people of well-to-do the Hansom Armored Conveyor was an unarmed two passenger and driver machine, driven by twin three horse power Infernum compression engines built by Harrison & Harrison of 36 Leather Lane Holborn. However Lord Howell of Keffbourne Master of the Queens Armories saw another application for this most wondrous of machines. By the addition of a Gatling gun and a gunners seat he created the worlds first Tankovsky or Tank as the lower classes came to call it. Another excellent model designed by our master model maker Andy Rawling to add to your Empire of the Dead world!

Not by any means a bad model and I fully understand the need for it to be a weapon but personally I would have preffered something far less military

I laughed happily when I saw this - but I wouldn't want to be either of the crewmen!

Being a Hansom does it double as an APC?

Theyve been very clever about the Crewmen, they would not look out of place painted as a couple of Coppers ;)

Does EotD need 'Heavy Armour'?  I thought it was a warband scale skirmish game.
