Challenger was one of Britain's expedient tank designed to mount a 17-pounder. Join me to look at this new plastic kit. We'll explore the model, some history and see how it will go on the table. Does it have the chops to stand up to a King Tiger?

Another wonderful look at the kit and how it works in the game. :)

@FogofWar 6 месяцев назад

Thanks Callum. Some British oddness.

Thanks to your videos, I have built over 150 AFV's every time I think it's over you put up a new video of another great model, When will it end!!!, hopefully NEVER

@FogofWar 6 месяцев назад

Thank you. Glad you like the videos. No plans to stop yet - but I'm digging back into my pile of review shame in 2024.

What you said about the Challenger in V3 is another proof to me that - despite many claims - V4 is more historically accurate in detail. You should not allow yourself being blinded by the generic chracter of the formations in the book. Concerning the formation the historical flavor comes with the command cards. Anyway, a nice kit and the typical high quality video we get on this channel. Although the Challenger's turret is a bit of a sin to the "rule of cool" which makes the Cromwell (and the Crusader) one of the leading WW2 tanks. 😉

It CAN be more historical, but in general it isn't. Most people just min/max for the wins

@trekanbelluvitsh 6 месяцев назад

@@tando6266 That's not the game but what people make of it. My friend and me i.e. play a narrative FoW campaign taking place in Normndy 1944 having unbalanced games. During the last game his brits (110 pts) crushed my germans (75pts) by artillery mainly. That was very histoycally. Frustrating for me, but historically. As I said: The game is what you make of it.

@FogofWar 6 месяцев назад

Thanks Trekan. We also know more about things. Our knowledge and ongoing research are always revealing new aspects of vehicles and history. It's nice to see this research and growing knowledge reflected in the games we play.

great kit

@FogofWar 6 месяцев назад

It turned out nice, didn't it!

Great review! I have the Comet Armoured Squadron box waiting in the assembly line. I've been mostly playing with D-Day British Armoured company but D-Day German and Waffen SS seem to have disappeared nowadays, so I need some punch for Berlin monstrosities XD

@FogofWar 6 месяцев назад

Yeah. Late war Brits need all the anti-tank they can get against the heavier German armour!
