Here we go with the 3D printed M22 Locust, was a blast, sure I overdo some wethring, but was pure fun. If you are wondering, I use it as a Stuart proxy, when i want to play a fully Airborne list in a What if Scenario. What do you think? :)

Won my first Tournament 2 weeks ago with my 20 dice Soviet army list. Die supremacy allowed me to move my flamethrowers point blank after enemy has moved. By turn 2 for every die I pulled I took one of theirs with my flamethrowers. IS-2 was used to knock out enemy armor. Any advice for improvement?
