Re: The Jamakeer Guard - RT Planetary Defence Force: Tanks P
So, the next units to arrive are the (VI) Penal Company, here in all their glory, parading after disembarking from a commandeered civilian hauler:
Led by (or coerced by, who knows!) is their Commissar, Johan Reisman:
'A' Platoon are made up of members of the Jamakeer Guard convicted of crimes in service. Rather than prison, convicts that aren't immediately executed are placed in the Penal Company, with the possibility of redemption and eventual return to the ranks.
Getting used for everything from latrine digging duty, to suicidal charges, to involuntary mine clearance, the number of convicts in 'A' Platoon varies regularly. At the moment they run to 12 men, and so are (unsurprisingly) called the 'Dirty Dozen'.
'A' Platoon, '1' Section:
'A' Platoon, '2' Section:
Next up is 'B' Platoon. Whilst not criminals as such, as Abhumans, the beastmen that make up 'B' Platoon are illegal by their very existence in the eyes of the Imperium, and so have been incorporated into the Penal Company.
Slightly less straightforward cannon-fodder than 'A" platoon, they are split into 3 bricks of five and even have heavy weapons support.
