We all agree the Morris is ...unattractive....so what is your favorite Armored Car? Abilities....looks....whatever....got one, let's hear it

Looks: the Staghound & good stats but a good looking piece.

Abilities: the Puma is a nasty fellow used in fun ways.

In defense of the Morris, Experienced Recon is nice.

Anyone....anyone....Bueller..

I'm with you on the Staghound and Puma and also love the firepower on the 234/4 "Pakwagen". The UGLIEST has to be the Japanese Type87 Armored Car
obviously not designed by the same people who designed their battleships!

I love the Type 87, in a kind of steampunk-nightmare-before-Christmas way.

Those who don't remember their history are bound to do something or other...

Likewise I'm a fan of the Puma.

I always liked the Sdkfz 250 for looks, but the small scale AAM mini was sad for me so I painted other ones. The M3 Scout car was a nice looking mini, in my opinion. For abilities, I have to go with the Sdkfz 251. Put an MG on those babies and you’ve got a mess as long as you keep distance from armor.

Those are halftracks using Fighting Platform. I agree with you on MG's, Light Mortars on them is just rude

Do you have an Armored Car you like for looks or abilities, Strike & Fade, Aggession, firepower, let us know.
Thanks.

I’ve had fun with those in early war scenarios!

If I'm going on pure looks, it's gotta be the Puma.

The one I like to use in game play though is the SdKfz 222. I love playing Early War engagements between the Germans and Poles (my Fav country in AAM). It's a bonus that the Nationalist Chinese (tied for my 2nd Fav country) also had the 222.

I agree & also think it is sad that there are lots of units that were never made. WotC just ignored so many things, such as Russian artillery units & some infantry for some countries. I guess the bottom line was more important with Magic the Gathering than to support & fill out AAM. Thankfully we have custom card makers & aftermarket options. Gaming Models does have the Daimler Armored Car.
