I think 'Brummie' in comment above, may have 'hit the nail on the head'... in a city fight, there will be lots of concealing terrain allowing the Grille to move up into position, and plenty of infantry hiding in buildings to blast apart... so I will keep them to be called up into action when situations dictate :-)Scottswargaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00581220877007982139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33886045.post-79766169886949869312012-09-03T11:47:54.397+12:002012-09-03T11:47:54.397+12:00Thanks Chris - yeah I stumbled across the Brummbar...Thanks Chris - yeah I stumbled across the Brummbar when looking through Grey Wolf last night... perhaps another item to add to the 'shopping list'... ;-)Scottswargaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00581220877007982139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33886045.post-71809306234192560092012-09-03T06:23:49.644+12:002012-09-03T06:23:49.644+12:00Love those Grille self propelled guns; not heard o...Love those Grille self propelled guns; not heard of them before, but beautifully done.Michael Awdryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07049982879661559305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33886045.post-29167260857630371512012-09-03T05:28:45.120+12:002012-09-03T05:28:45.120+12:00Surely there's a use for these bad boys.
