British Airborne platoon for Chain of Command

A few days ago I realised that I never posted a picture of my British Airborne platoon that I'd painted months ago for Chain of Command. So, here it is;




These are all Peter Pig 15mm figures, once again with the Leaders on 2cm bases and the other ranks on 1.5cm bases, plus snipers, PIAT team and the 2" mortar on 3cm bases. The platoon consists of an HQ, with a lieutenant, a platoon sergeant, a 2" mortar team, a sniper team and a PIAT team, two sections of 10 men, split into a Bren team and a rifle team and led by a sergeant and a third team, again led by a sergeant, with two Bren teams with one man equipped with a Sten, plus a sniper team. The rifle teams also have one man with a Sten. There is a lot of firepower in this platoon.

To add some colour, some of the figures are wearing Airborne berets and the whole platoon is, of course wearing Denison smocks.
