5150: Star Army – Platoon Leader is the bridge between the man-to-man combat of 5150: Star Army and battalion-level 5150: Battalion Commander. Platoon Leader is a stand-alone game compatible with both.

The Wars Have Been Going On For Years!

The Gaea Prime Empire is still hungry and still has many enemies, including a new one – the Zhuh-Zhuh. The Bug menace is at its worse, and everyday there are reports of Hishen gains, closer and closer to the Home World. Darkness is coming and the body count is growing.

I like to think we've got them where we want them.

You're a platoon leader in command of three Squads. You can lead Gaea Prime soldiers, Hishen clones, Grath creatures, Zhuh-Zhuh "monkey boys"; heck, even bone-crunching Bugs, it's all up to you.

5150: Platoon Leader

Although we increased the size of your games, we've kept the detail from 5150: Star Army while streamlining the mechanics. Now you can play with more figures in less time.

We expanded the campaign rules, not made them harder. We built upon those found in 5150: Star Army to now include the option to fight from planet to planet. In short, more fun, less work.

No minis? No problem. We've included a sheet of color counters for you to use!
