Platoon Forward: Versatility for some warlord ships

Welcome to Platoon Forward!

Welcome to the site where the story of the battle is as important as the battle itself. Here we will focus on men thrust into extraordinary situations of life and death. They must lead other men with duty and honor to meet their countries objectives. Some will be blessed with great skill, some will carry great shortcomings. No matter what nation, no matter what war, no matter what theater, they are all called to move their Platoon or Squadron forward!

These are their individual stories as played out using my various campaign rules . Hopefully these stories will entertain and inspire you to use your own troops, airmen and sailors to accomplish your own great heroics.

Versatility for some warlord ships

Just a quick post on a project I finished while building warlord's [ now skytrex] kreigfischkutter ships. I bought a 2 pack a while back because these ships are ubiquitous in convoys and port patrolling in almost all navies. My plan was to use magnets for the gun positions so I could swap them out to whatever country I wanted. I haven't built a ship in ages so got lazy on the first one and just built a german KfK.

Here she is! Ready for action.

Inspired I went back to the original plan for the second ship. I think it went well so thought I would show you in case others wanted to stretch their fleets. First up the german version...
