French Army Heavy Weapons platoon

Bring up the heavy weaponry!

Designed to fight attritional defensive battles and grand set-piece attacks, the French
Army was well-supplied with heavy weapons, having learned the efficacy of mortars and
machine guns in the trenches of the Great War.

This box contains everything you need to build a heavy weapons platoon - up to six
mortars, or two machine guns, or numerous combinations, plus a
platoon commander. The heavy weapons sprue contains a venerable
Hotchkiss M1914 medium machine gun, as well as options to make two
medium mortars and two light mortars.

Contents:

• Two heavy weapons frames each containing one .Hotchkiss M1914 medium machine gun, one Mle 27/3 medium mortar, and two light mortars - one Mle 1937, and one Mle 1935.
• Three crew frames totalling twelve infantry models that can be assembled as crew or command squads, with a selection of heads, arms and equipment.
• Four 60mm and three 25mm bases, allowing you to construct up to four heavy weapons teams or three heavy weapons plus a platoon commander and bodyguards.
• Four Order Dice
• French Army decals
