Product details

Background & context

The Universal Carrier was a light, tracked British carrier and was used in large numbers by British and Commonwealth units in World War II. It replaced several earlier carrier types with a versatile standard vehicle and served, among other things, as a transporter for personnel, equipment, and support weapons. Its roles ranged from machine gun or mortar carrier, artillery observation, and radio vehicle to special variants such as flamethrowers. Its high production numbers and wide variety of roles made it one of the defining light tracked vehicles of Allied armies.

On the tabletop

For your Commonwealth infantry in 12 mm scale, this box provides a battalion's carrier platoon. Each of the six carriers can be built differently: as a transport with Bren gunners, with a mortar, heavy machine gun, Vickers, PIAT or anti-tank rifle, as a British or Canadian flamethrower, or as a vehicle for the forward observation officer. That lets you rush support weapons to a threatened spot. The 90 crew figures come in desert and European kit.
