From the Warlord Games Website
Released this week is the revolutionary early war French tank the FT-17, ready to defend against the invading armies of Germany:
The Renault FT-17 was a French light tank that was among the most revolutionary and influential tank designs in history.
It was the first production tank to have its armament within a fully
rotating turret, its crew compartment at the front and engine
compartment at the back. This configuration remains the standard tank
layout and sees the FT-17 referred to as the world’s first modern tank.
You can add a variety of
French tank crew most of them have separate Figure Heads so you can mix and match to your own taste giving each tank unique crew.
If you don’t already have it you may want to get your hands on Armies
of France and the Allies book. This supplement for Bolt Action covers
the armies of France, Poland, Greece, Norway, Holland and Belgium that
stood against the German Blitzkrieg, as well as the resistance forces
that sprung up in the aftermath of occupation.
All copies of the book ship with the free and exclusive figure of the
decorated French resistance fighter Simone Segouin (also known under
the nom de guerre ‘Nicole Minet’), rumour has it there may be special
rules for her later this year in our forth coming theatre book release –
Battleground Europe.
Paul Hicks has sculpted the miniature and I am sure you will agree he
has done a cracking job to capture her likeness as seen in the
photograph below.
