Centaur Light Carrier

Not every job at the front needs a battle tank. The Centaur is the small tracked workhorse the Imperial Guard put to everything heavier armour is too valuable to bother with: pushing a squad up to a treeline, towing a heavy weapon into position, dragging ammunition to a gun crew that has been firing since dawn. Low, simple and built around a compact tracked hull, it looks like exactly what it is, a utility vehicle in a war that consumes them by the thousand. On the table that translates into speed for an army that otherwise walks everywhere, and a way to shift support weapons about instead of planting them and hoping. In a diorama it is the vehicle that makes a trench line look occupied rather than staged. A sensible pick for Guard collectors, airborne and light infantry forces, and anyone whose army list needs transport more than another main gun.
