Today I added another infantry section to my British 8th Army for Bolt Action. This time a Scottish one and to be specific a Black Watch one. During the North African campaign, several Black Watch battalions served and played also a major role under the British 8th Army. The Warlord Games "British 8th Army Platoon" box contains Scottish Highlander heads and gives the opportunity to build such soldiers.
The ten-man infantry section consists of an NCO with a Thompson submachine gun and nine soldiers, one with a Bren gun LMG and eight with Lee Enfield rifles.
The above NCO with the Black Watch tartan kilt and the Platoon Commander, whom you will see below, are metallic figures of the British Commando Command pack of Artizan Design miniatures. All the rest are Warlord Games plastic figures of British 8th Army Platoon box.
