Youngest platoon member ( - 1 in shooting, hand to hand and morale) the platoon medic ( +1 to saving throw for any figure if base to base contact with medic) Platoon Officer ( + 1 to morale, 50% chance of indecision when giving orders) Platoon 2ic the sergeant ( +1 to morale and on dice Officer throws to give orders if in base contact with him) and finally the the old soldier ( +1 in hand to hand combat)
I added a paper bayonet to the old soldier’s rifle and a paper scarf to the youngest member of the Platoon. Figures are all 54mm homecasts (bought) apart from the Officer who is a Britains hollowcast with spares rifle arm.
A lovely idea! Your slight modifications to the appearance of your men enhance the idea that these have become personalized and more like discrete individuals. Cracking good work sir!
