ArmiesArmy is very pleased to announce a 10% savings for pre-orders of its new Penal
Force
Penal battalion service in infantry roles was the most common use of Prisoners whether
they were political prisoners, convicts, P.O.W’s or troops who had failed in previous
duties and were viewed by many prisoners as tantamount to a death sentence.
Prisoners sentenced to infantry units were eligible for commutation of sentence and
assignment to an Army line unit if they survived their sentence or had accomplished
extremely heroic deeds in combat. They could also theoretically receive military
decorations for outstanding service and if released were considered fully rehabilitated,
though those suspected of political disloyalties remained marked men.
In reality, the promise of rehabilitation was (in most cases) pure propaganda; penal
battalions were administered and commanded by the field unit HQ’s, who treated Penal
Troops as a worthless subspecies of soldier, useful only for absorbing heavy casualties
that would otherwise be inflicted on a more worthy unit.
The penal troopers thus faced little prospect of escape, ensured by the use of explosive
neck devices, activated with zero hesitation if so much as the slightest hesitation
was shown!
The R.U.S.K and PLA forces both regularly use Penal Forces. With limited firepower
and no body armour these troops are also nice for converting to several other troop
types.
To launch the new troops, I’ll be offering a preorder special of 10% off all Penal
Troopers. The offer will close in 2 weeks’ time and Items posted within the month.
Ill also be offering new Army pack special of 6 packs of Penal troops and one pack
of either Rusk HQ troops or Sino/PLA HQ.
