Simply awesome.  Saw it in fully painted state and what a joy to behold…the commander of BUF W.Y.R.D. Force was not quite so enamoured if it as it systematically dismantled his defence line before driving though the limited barricades thrown up by HMG stragglers on the fringes of Leominster before destroyed the statue of Commander Arrowsmith in the final actions of the day!

Are you actually reporting that a SHODDY design successfully advanced towards the enemy (in a straight line!) without throwing a track or spontaneously catching fire? Would you mind if we quoted you in the next brochure?

Sadly, judging from the photographic evidence of the recent action that has emerged to date, it appears that at some point the vehicle suffered a collision with an item of street furniture immobilizing the tank and causing a degree of damage to a minor example of local public art. SHODDY will record this as "lost due to operator error" (although to be fair, this is how SHODDY records all losses - usually the error is purchasing a SHODDY product in the first place).

Ah! Not sure if the presence of an Elder God threw a spanner in the traditional, S.H.O.D.D.Y. works :-)

But yes, the AWV performed admirably, trundling inexorably towards Ultimate Victory, and another step toward the End of the World As We Know It was taken :-) It might have helped that all the enemy anti-tank guns were on the opposite end of the table, facing a large armoured column . . .

We await the next batch of photos with anticipation and trepidation.

As for what the mice have done to the electrics... well, when H-Hour arrives and the order comes to move off from the start line you will find out!

Imagining wiring so faulty that a body would turn to Lucas: The Prince Of Darkness as an UPGRADE... whew, now that's really beyond the pale!

It is deepest, darkest Herefordshire in ‘38 so frankly the impossible just me become possible…
