Tarpaulin Cover: The TTC, TPC, TAC, TMC, TCLM, TS&C, TAT Mk. II & 2pdr SP models are all equipped with tarps as basic kit.
Tracked Towing Carrier (TTC): This model is meant to tow AT guns or field artillery, ammo and their crews quickly about the battlefield. The vehicle will be conisdered the weapon's prime mover and its crew will be made up from the weapon's crew.
Tracked Ammo Carrier (TAC): This model has been modified to carry additional ammunition for use with artillery and AT units. This model has also been fitted with additional armored plates on the vehicle's side locations to help better protect the ammunition stored within. Because of the amount of ammunition within this model, it suffers an additional -2 to the Vehicle Effects Chart if penetrated.
Tracked Personnel Carrier (TPC): This model is used as a transport for personnel and heavy weapon teams. The carrier has enough room to carry a squad of troops with any weapons and ammunition they might carry.
Tracked Mortar Carrier (TMC): This model has been designed to carry the 3" mortar along with its crew and ammunition. The mortar has a 360-degree field of fire and can also be dismounted if needed by the crew expending 2 actions in doing so. It will also take the crew 2 actions to mount it back up into the vehicle.
Tracked Cable Laying Mechanism (TCLM): This model has been designed to quickly lay phone cable on the battlefield. The vehicle is capable of laying phone wire the length of its normal movement if all the crew are in good order. If any crew is missing, it will only be able to lay wire the length of 1/2 its normal movement.
Tracked Starting and Charging (TS&C): This model carries additional battery generators for use in servicing other vehicles.
Tractor Anti-Tank Mk. I: This model has been fitted with a 2pdr AT gun and was a stopgap design rushed into service for use with Home Guard units in the UK. The weapon has a 360-degree field of fire and the crew will benefit from the weapon's gun shield as stated within the core rules. The weapon may fire AP and HE rounds.
