It's been a while but I am delighted to start getting my DPP-40 Amphibious Pontoon Units for Cold War Commander ready for the tabletop. Massive thanks go to fellow Cold War Commanders Andy C and Simon W for sorting out the 3d printing.
I have enough models to represent four bridging units and as detailed in a previous post I have enough deployed sections to cover four 100mm long bridge sections for our standard river/canal width.
There are four different models available in the STL file each representing the GAZ transport trucks in different stages of deployment so I decided I would represent each unit with four models, one of each type. This matches well with the size of other bridging units we use in our games. I may add another GAZ66 truck or 4x4 as an HQ or they may just be added to Engineering Units which they were in their real life deployment.
WIP - This model represents the pontoon section fully deployed before being slid off the back of the GAZ transport into the water (Or GAZ trucks with wings!)
All 16 models representing 4 units. Just Matt Varnish to add
All four types. Left fully extended ready for deployment through various stages of deployment with the truck on the right in travel mode
Just waiting on some matt varnish to arrive so for now work on these has come to a stop. In the last part I'll show the finished units along with the deployed sections. Pleased with these as they add a very unusual unit to the collection and tabletop. As always thanks for looking, stay safe and game on!
