Flames Of War - French: AMR 35 Recon Platoon

The Automitrailleuse de Reconnaissance (AMR), or Reconnaissance Armoured Car, is the oppo-site of the AMD. Whereas the AMD scouts far ahead of the army, tracking their advance, the AMR fights the covering battle in front of the French lines. Their job is to force the enemy to deploy and launch an organised attack ahead of the main line of defence. This slows the enemy advance, buying more time for the infantry to dig in and prepare.

The main AMR is the Renault AMR-35, a light two-man tank found in the Regiments Dragons Portés. Platoon and section commanders used a version armed with a 7.5mm light machine-gun, backed up by a more cramped version with 13.2mm heavy machine-guns.
