A planetary defense force would be wise to keep some of its missile launchers mobile and in the field to survive a surprise attack The missiles are big enough to convincingly threaten a large target – like part of a planetary invasion force or the ships that deployed it. Now he has convinced the Duke that an expedition should be organized to go to the ancient keep and recover its greatest treasure the fabled Soul Gem. This model will likely see use as an objective in sci-fi wargames. Description: A shadow from the past, the Ghost Tower of Inverness has loomed ever larger in the mind of the great Seer of Urnst.

C2 The Ghost Tower of Inverness (1e) Author(s): Allen Hammack Original Publisher: TSR Original Publication Date: 1980 Description: A shadow from the past, the Ghost Tower of Inverness has loomed ever larger in the mind of the great Seer of Urnst. 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. The detailing is excellent, but the models are a little too large to be in scale with 15mm. 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.

I've picked up a total of four of these models over the past few months. 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.
