I use only 1:48 scale vehicles in my WWII games using Combat Patrol(TM). I found 1:48 scale Bren carriers from Butler’s Printed Models. Butler’s models, however, do not come with crews. The only way to get crews that I found was to order the carriers and crews from Warlord. (They don’t split up sets any more, apparently.) So, I was stuck with some 1:56 carriers. I was going to flea market them, but I thought that no one else would want Bren carriers without crews. Then I thought that they might make interesting unmanned ground vehicles for science fiction games. So out came the bits box…

So I found some old weapons, bits, and bobs, and began to glue these to the Bren carrier chassis. Below you can see how they look before I will begin painting them. The weapons are mounted with magnets so that they can be turned during a game.







I will post some pictures when they are painted and ready for a game.
