Before I post on the Tank Platoon something I discovered from the competition last weekend.

Command sections are the most versatile unit when it comes to weapons selections. Generally they can be equipped with the weapons depicted on the model. My thinking use to be taking the Owen gun as these come free rather than the normal 3pts upgrade. The issue is they are short range and your command group may get a little too close to the enemy for comfort. Being equipped with rifles allows them to take the occasional shot at twice the distance with less risk involved. The figures below have been painted up to add to the Australian Jungle Division to provide me with both options.

Now for another standard Jungle Division section to add to the Tank Platoon. As usual they are equipped with 4 Owen guns a Bren gun, and 5 rifles. The Tank Platoon can be equipped with 4 infantry squads and a scout team. At this stage my thinking is to build two Jungle Division sections, a Papuan Infantry Brigade section, as they can scout alongside the platoons scouts, and a section of Commandos. The later I am still thinking about as it more suitably fits with the Kanga Commando raiding force. We will just see what develops.
