Hello one and all...
Shame so few saw service and not to sure what area of ops...
"This not quite complete but extremely rare unit was and Australian innovation and was built to carry the two Pounder Anti Tank Gun.
There were only 200 of these machines built and ours is one of the last remaining. It was made from the Bren Gun Carrier by extending the tracks by 6 links and moving the engine from the rear to the front."
all info taken from this site...

Hello one and all...
Boys .55 cal (14mm) Anti-Tank Rifle
Barrel Length: 36" (915mm)
Weight: 36lb (16.3kg) unloaded
Muzzle Velocity: 3250 fps (990m/s)
Penetration: 21mm (.83") @ 300m (328yds)
The British decided on a straight forward approach for their anti-tank rifle solution with a magazine fed (5-round) bolt action rifle, firing a high velocity steel core AP round.
It was adopted in 1937 and issued to troops in the Pacific and later U.S. Marines and Army, where it was effective against Japanese tanks, but of limited practical use.
The Boys was also provided to the Finns for the "Winter War" of 1939 in Europe. It was reported that it was "adequately effective" against the Russian T-26, provided the "soft" points of the tank were hit.
By 1942 the Boys was ineffective and of no practical value and was replaced by the P.I.A.T..

hello one and all...
Thanks for the info i was aware of the LOS factor... and would guess that if it blocks LOS when alight or not... as would seem to be the case... then it seems strange that it will not stop bullets this is a shame... well troops will have to advance under armor from now on....

Hello one and all...
Here is a little Q to ask about cover etc after a tank has been ko you would think that a tank hunter team or a LMG team which in effect are only a couple of guys would be able to draw cover from the said object... but NO you try to hide a couple of men behind one they seem to get no cover... is this me?? I have been down the side of a tank under fire and yep!! it sure stops rounds any ideas

Hello one and all
As all prev have advised after you have got the HQ into a good place to spot for the morter place a cover arc of no more than five meters on to your HQ then this will stop them from taking a shot at any Inf etc so they can spot with no return fire...
