More WWII Early War French Update 1

Below are the Artillery and Heavy tank added to my friend Johns French forces...most of the figures are from Warlord Games this time round but fit in really well with the earlier Crusader figures as the can see from the earlier post that I've added to the bottom of this one.
First we have the Char 2C Heavy tank...This French tank was one of the biggest ever built ,but so very little action if none at all as most were captured by the Germans on rail cars during the early stages heading away from the action. Also we have the 105mm Heavy Howitzer manned here by four men.


Next with the others we see the 75mm light gun a mainstay of French forces
 at the time and when used properly a foil for German armour.



ORIGINAL POST

Having finally finished these lovely Early French for my friend John. I took the opportunity for a little shoot and chose the idea of a line of troops setting up against a fence line awaiting the German onslaught. The figures are from Crusader miniatures who do a fine range of these French for this period.
