Flames of War Made to Order Brings Back Abrams, Barkmann, and Recovery Vehicles

The November Flames of War Made to Order lineup brings back four long-requested historical releases.

This month focuses on famous commanders and useful recovery vehicles rather than complete formations. However, the limited order window means interested players will need to plan ahead. The range runs from November 6 through November 29. This is a summary of a community post found here.

November Made to Order Mixes Famous Commanders With Specialist Vehicles

Lt. Col. Creighton Abrams headlines the November selection with one of the most characterful American releases. His set includes M4A3 “Thunderbolt VI” and M4A3E8 “Thunderbolt VII,” plus two Abrams commander figures. Additionally, the pack contains a plastic Sherman sprue and decal sheet.

German players get Ernst Barkmann alongside a Panther A and Repair Workshop. Consequently, the set works equally well as a gaming piece or small historical vignette.

The Famo Sd Kfz 9 also returns, giving German armies a distinctive heavy recovery and towing vehicle.

Meanwhile, British players can pick up the Cromwell ARV for armoured recovery duties. All models arrive unpainted and unassembled, which should be familiar territory for Flames of War veterans. Orders must go through participating Made to Order partners across North America, Europe, and Australasia.

Importantly, some stores may not list the limited products online, so Battlefront recommends calling directly when necessary. The company also wants more retailers to join the program and continues collecting suggestions for future returning ranges.

Final Thoughts

Overall, the November Flames of War Made to Order range feels aimed squarely at collectors and historical enthusiasts. Abrams and Barkmann provide the personality, while the recovery vehicles fill useful gaps in older collections.
