Warlord Games: Forthcoming Plastic Churchill/AVRE Kit!


Warlord Games: This is the (rather wonderful!) artwork for our forthcoming plastic Churchill/AVRE kit!

The Churchill (named after British PM, Winston) was one of the heaviest allied tanks of the war, best known for its heavy armour, large longitudinal chassis with all-around tracks with multiple bogies, and its use as the basis of many specialist vehicles.


Speaking of which – ‘AVRE’ stands for Armoured Vehicle Royal Engineers and provided excellent battlefield support to the engineers. Armed with a devastating 290mm spigot mortar this tank was more than capable of cracking bunkers and other fortifications as well as providing the basis for many of 79th Divisions ‘Funnies’
