Mustang p51-D (Recoilless guns) and Axis Jagdherman

Today I'm posting a little historical Dustified treat.

I've always loved the P51 mustang, especially the later models. They were an extreme improvement on previous escort fighters and saved hundreds if not thousands of bombardiers on their air raids over occupied Europe, who had been left to complete most of the journey over occupied Europe alone due to range limitations in previous fighters.

The 2 additional .50 call machine guns the P-51D (in addition to the 4 previous versions already sported) model sported were particularly devastating.

This version, I'm designating the P-51D/30 sporting four wing mounted recoilless guns to attack ground targets. (Went with Recoilless guns instead of 6 rockets to add a bit of diversity, lest it end up armed exactly like the "Bouncing Betty" however there was no pro-painted model I could find so the image on the card is just the P-51D/25).

Think though since models of this version is more readily available will probably card one up to, being a cheaper and lighter (and more fragile) version of the Bouncing Betty itself.

Then for something a little different since I love the look of the tropical Herman and can't abide how unreliable the standard one is. I present this bad boy: calling it the Jagdherman.

Same old Herman but with twice the hitting dice (and priced point wise accordingly). Brings it a bit more in line with the Wotan in terms of how the lasers function game wise, than the Tropical Herman. The only prob that was pointed out to me by Christopher Barnhart, is that these had a danger of becoming spamming fodder alternative to the Wotan, thus the single per platoon limitation.

Know I been  promising more AT43 stuff and slowly churning on those. Main reason they going slow is time basic restraints but hoping to get Operation Frost-Bite out in the next month or two. 
As always let me know what you think and if you have any ideas.

ME262

Hey guys, another quick update, with another Dustified Historical Axis unit.

This time a ME263, heavy fighter version, with 2 extra 30 mm cannons and four X-4 missiles. All of which were actually layout options however I’m not sure if any model of this specific armament flew in our timeline.

In the world of dust however, the design proved itself in 1944 and though by now outclassed by newer generation aircraft, it can still dominate the skies agains thousands of older fighters that still fill the air forces of all the blocks.



Rules wise, this ME262 is more heavily armed then the Fledermaus series, but less resilient and maneuverable. Because of its slightly out dated design does not have the Air Superiority special rule.  

Any thoughts on this or the previous stats for the E-100 Tiger Maus?

Thanks and Cheers for now
