This set of files contains everything you need to print the Rondache armored carrier - a heavily armored transport designed to transport troops across no-man’s land.
A common variant of the Baselard infantry tank, the Rondache trades firepower for transport capacity. With the vast ammunition bins and most weapon mounts removed, this armored carrier can bring a platoon of troops across the battlefield while being impervious to all but the most dedicated anti-armor weapons. The hull weapon mount has been retained to help create breaches in defensive networks, supplemented by an armored cupola weapon mount. While the chassis offers a great deal of protection, the Rondache’s rapid development has left some flaws in the design - most notably, the side doors above the tracks leave troops very exposed when mounting and dismounting their transport. Use of the rear crew passage can help mitigate the danger at the cost of speed. Despite this, fusilier sections tend to prefer being assigned to a Rondache over an Ammit or Makara due to the greater level of protection and relatively roomy interior.
The weapons have magnet holes in case you want to swap weapons after assembly. You’ll need 3mm (⅛”) x 1mm and 5mm (¼”) x 1mm rare earth magnets if you choose to take advantage of them.

This kit includes the parts needed to build a Rondache armored carrier along with a variety of optional weaponry.
Twenty-three standard mount weapon options are included alongside four new pintle weapons.
The turret ring is compatible with the new-type Ammit turrets as well as the Dague tankette. An optional turret plug is included to allow for the use of standard cupolas instead of the armored version or turrets.

This kit is presupported, but also includes unsupported STLs for those who want to print in FDM or would prefer to handle their own supports.
