Review by J. de Miguel


EXTRA DEFENSA
45 EDITORIAL EDEFA, S.A.
C/ Jorge Juan 98 28009
MADRID SPAIN Price: 750 ptas.

Everything you wanted to know about the tanks used by the Spanish armies but never dared to ask. Here it is. Amazing photographs, the whole story from the very beginning to the end of the war. All those weird definions like "Camion protegido" (Protected truck) used to define AFV artillery, engineers and infantry mobile units are here with the photos and explanations telling when, where, and how many, procedence etc.

Now I know where the Tiznaos come from! Other bizarre names like "Canon autoametralladora (Self propelled Machine Gun), are described, and shown. a good study on the imported AFV material and the own Spanish production during the SCW and a brief reference to the Tiznaos makes this magazine; a no. 1 reference for any wargame and collector.
