Flames of War: M3 Stuart Light Tank Platoon Product Contents

The M3 Stuart Light Tank Platoon for Flames of War features five American light tanks armed with 37mm guns. Fast, agile, and versatile, these vehicles played an essential role in US armored formations throughout World War II and were also supplied in large numbers to British and Soviet forces via Lend-Lease.

The British forces nicknamed the M3 the General Stuart, honoring the famous Confederate cavalry commander J.E.B. Stuart from the American Civil War. This designation eventually became widespread among American troops as well.

How to Deploy the M3 Stuart Light Tank Platoon in Flames of War

The M3 Stuart was widely deployed across US armored divisions, where light tank companies performed critical reconnaissance, screening, and flank support roles alongside heavier formations. In Flames of War, its high speed and maneuverability allow you to deploy a mobile light tank force capable of rapidly repositioning across the battlefield to support key objectives.

Its 37mm main gun is well-suited for engaging soft targets, enemy reconnaissance elements, and light armor. To get the most out of these light tanks, leverage their mobility to flank opponents and pick engagements carefully when facing heavier enemy armor.
