British 8th Army Starter Army

The British 8th Army was composed of men from across the British Commonwealth—Australians, New Zealanders, South Africans, Indians, and Polish troops all fought alongside their British comrades in the Western Desert. Facing the combined threats of Italian and German forces, scorching temperatures, and inhospitable terrain, they emerged victorious.

This box set provides everything you need to deploy the forces of the British Commonwealth in the harsh and dusty environment of North Africa and beyond. Featuring a strong core of infantry, support teams, and the essential Bren Carrier transports, this set is perfect for recreating legendary battles such as El Alamein and Tobruk. Will your Desert Rats withstand the combined fascist forces of Italy and Germany?
