This model will likely see use as an objective in sci-fi wargames. The model is nicely detailed, although there are some mold lines on the plastic missiles. Most of the large missile launchers that I am familiar with are wheeled rather than tracked. Unfortunately, placement of the cannon and the fact that the rear hatch opens to a blank panel makes using one of these models as a troop carrier problematic.Īs far as I know, this model is not based on a real world vehicle. They have the right look to be convincing as tank destroyers or in an infantry support role. These will likely end up being repainted for sci-fi wargames like Tomorrow's War. That's fine with me, since I have no plans to use them in a modern game.

It is the second in TSR's COMPETITION SERIES - modules that were used in official tournaments. The detailing is excellent, but the models are a little too large to be in scale with 15mm. The Ghost Tower of Inverness was originally written for the Official ADVANCED DUNGEONS & DRAGONS Game Tournament at Wintercon VIII, held in Detroit in November of 1979. My understanding is that the vehicle was designed for situations calling for a large bore direct fire weapon, but not the tank that usually comes with it. These are based on the real world Mobile Gun System version of the U.S. I'm thinking about a jungle green scheme might work well over the green plastic pieces.

I've already stripped one and the other is going through a long soak in Simple Green. Even worse, the paint was thick enough to obscure the details of the models. The other two were part of Mission Force packs and had a hideous black and green paint scheme. The scheme actually looks pretty good, but I could do without the “United Alliance” markings. Two are the gray/blue/black scheme seen in the pictures.

The scale may not be an exact match for 15mm, but it is close enough to work. A more realistic paint job and they fit right in on the tabletop. The level of detail on these models is outstanding. All of the models below are part of Matchbox's Real Working Rigs line.
