Model of a German WW2 Type IX submarine for Bolt Action, Pulp Alley, 7TV, and anything similar. Scaled to be playable with 28mm figures, but not overwhelm the table. Hull and AA guns are remixes, deck gun and con I modeled.

Pre-cut holes for 5mmx3mm magnets to hold the hull sections and con together and for the guns.

Deck gun is modeled on the 105mm deck gun.
Several types of AA guns are included:
Very basic MG / 20mm
37mm
Dual 37mm

The 37mm is borrowed, but I can't find the author just now. I'll update when I find the author.
