Blitzkrieg Logo Early War Staff Armies:
Casey's Kompania Czołgów

We continue our feature on the Battlefront staff members Early-war armies by taking a look at Casey's Kompania Czołgów.

My favourite aspect of Flames Of War have always been painting and modelling. So any army I tend to build is due to its coolness factor, rather than trying to create the optimal gaming list. While researching and working on the Blitzkrieg book, the French and Polish tanks were the two forces that jumped out at me due to the cool camouflage schemes featured on the vehicles.

The main reasons that I chose a Polish tank force was that (a) there were lots of other guys in the studio doing French tanks, and no-one was doing Polish tanks, (b) the 7TP is a sexy looking tank - almost as cool looking as the Soviet T-26s, (c) the TKS looks awesome, and (d) the bulk of the force conveniently comes in the Polish Tank army deal.

Editor's Note: More information regarding the Polish Tank Army Box will become available of the next few weeks.

7TP jw in action
7TP jw Using every platoon in the Polish Army deal as the starting point for the list, I only have to add another Combat platoon (I like maxing out my combat platoons in any force I build) and an infantry company to complete the army. I think this is an interesting combination of troops and will prove to be fairly competitive.
