Intro
Back in my Mixed Tankovy days, I ran 5 BA10s. As a unit they were awesome, I had to learn to use them as recce, so only shooting if they relatively safe and I didn't need to remove gtg. However, there were times, when their AT7 was lethal and I had been able to advance them deep into enemy territory thanks to cautious movement. These guys are fantastic flankers, they're fast and don't suffer Hen and Chicks, combine that with a pre-game recce move and you can find yourself thinking "damn, wish I had more of these fellas!"
Enter mixed tankovy 2.0. I'm starting with the maximum BA10s I can take. That's 1 platoon of 5 and 1 platoon of 10. Unfortunately I'm not made of money, battlefront sell these in blisters of 1, so that's getting on for £100...not tempting. Skytrex also make BA10s and the model looks lovely, but again I'm not parting with £7 per model. So that brought me back to the Zvezda offering and what is possibly the worst model I have ever made...24 parts that send shivers down the spine. If you haven't experienced it it's hideous. When I sold Mixed Tankovy 1.0, I only charged the same as they had cost me, I was that embarrassed of the model.
So, what the hell am I doing with 15 fresh boxes of them?
