DAK_PAK38

This metal model comes with three tanned Afrika Korps crew. Studio painter Andrés Amián has made good use of a portion of walls from the Ruined Farmhouse plastic set to give this Pak 38’s bases an extra dimension and some welcome cover for the crew!

In Bolt Action

Find a good avenue (field of fire) over which you can, from good cover, hunker down and ambush any light vehicles or armour. Use this relatively cheap anti-tank gun to hinder the enemies movement and deny them a portion of the battlefield. Dig in if you have too (page 125 of Duel in the Sun) as they can become vulnerable in a static position, perhaps use an MG team to support them and protect from flanking attacks.
