Although the PIAT was the official infantry anti-tank ordnance, it was rarely used. Not because tanks were not often faced, although this was true, but because the US Bazooka was more powerful, easy to obtain and had no spring mechanism to dislocate your shoulder.
Gaming companies tend not do adequate research so the Australian Tank Company is stuck with the PIAT!
READY!
AIM!
FIRE!

Your pics really set the scene! 🙂
Thanks Faust. putting them in situ helps display them properly especially when they are gaming pieces and not dioramas.
excellent looking addition Dave
Thanks Dave. They are a great little unit to both look at and have on the table.
Very nicely done mate, and a useful bit of kit game wise too.
Though I have a few I’m strangely not a fan of prone figures, I think it goes back to my gaming days, we’d often use small cardboard “counters” with “prone” written on them to signify with “inclination” of a figure, I don’t know I just don’t like the dynamic of moving a figure around the table if it’s shown in a prone position….damn this paging OCD !!! 🙄
Cheers Roger.
I agree. Unfortunately they came in a multi pack of weapons teams.
That should be gaming OCD of course. (bloody auto correct)
Ah gaming OCD – “over crap dice” I assume!
Great work on these and a fun post.
Thanks ToT
