These ‘homogenous’ platoons have advantages in command and control (through radios, mostly), but of course, are more expensive in the game as a result. And if you want something more historical and tidy (not to mention formidable!), there are rules for larger forces, with a higher points value, which tend to lead you towards forming platoons of the same type of AFV – like three Sherman tanks, or three Panzer IVs.
Smaller, ad-hoc armoured platoons can be made by simply sticking together the different vehicles in your collection. This represents a mechanized unit (from platoon level upwards) and makes for a very different force indeed. And importantly, these accompanying units of infantry and artillery need to have a transport vehicle or tow in order to keep up with the rest of the formation. The concept here is that normal Bolt Action games are about infantry platoons fighting with a few vehicles in support, while the new Armoured Platoon selector allows you to build a force made of vehicles, possibly, but not necessarily, supported by infantry and artillery.
