Heavy Sniper Team - Panzerbüchse 43W


Early on in the development of Rift technologies it became apparent to Professor Lange that he needed to supplement his Okkultekorps with some good, old-fashioned munitions to help take out the armoured walkers of the hated British forces.

So, Lange contacted an old colleague of his - the gifted engineer Erwin Huber.  Huber developed an anti-tank rifle able to fire specially-treated full tungsten rounds - upon successful testing it received authorisation to enter full production and was granted the designation Panzerbüchse 43W - "Tank Hunting Rifle Model 43 Wolfram".


This is the German Heavy Sniper Team from Warlord Games.  Rather than the winter look of the catalogue minis I gave mine the camo scheme I used for my Heer.  They aren't the most useful troops, truth be told, but they are cheap, so they find themselves in many of my lists as a deterrent if nothing else!
