To commemorate ANZAC Day on the 25th April, we have a special set of Commandos featuring the heroic exploits of the brave Australian and New Zealand military personnel.
5951: Humpback Heroes
Australian Captain Tom Best and his men were veterans of the war in the desert, fighting on the front line and defending Tobruk from the Germans.
When they were pulled out for some much-deserved rest, they thought they had it made – that was until they were roped into a mission deep behind enemy lines to destroy an Afrika Korps fuel dump!
And to get there? Well, they’d have to ride camels in complete disguise. They were to become heroes on humpback!

5952: Company of Heroes
“Now that I’m in India, I’m going to fix up a nice, cushy desk job.”
Those were Lieutenant Brian Lawson’s words when he arrived in the barracks of the famous Hyderabad Fusiliers, and for a while it looked as though they might come true. But then came the war with Japan, and for Brian Lawson nothing could ever be the same again. For he was part of the… Company of Heroes!

5953: Terror Train
Tunisia, 1943. A German military supply train cuts through North Africa, delivering vital supplies to the German lines. Equipped with vicious anti-aircraft guns, making it impossible to attack from the skies, the behemoth train threatens the Allied stronghold.
Tasked with destroying it, Captain Mike Lambert and his New Zealand Long Range Desert Group unit must fight carriage to carriage to wrest control from the Germans and destroy the supply line once and for all.

5954: Spring the Trap
When Commando officer Richard Adam was ordered to lead his expert team into the Italian mountains to blow up a vital dam, he didn’t expect this mission to be much different from any of the others he had tackled.
Boy, was he in for a surprise...
