Paul dont you mind those other bold boys the figure is grand by me
what level of action are the rules aimed at? ............with KGKursk being for mid scale action and FOW for large force scale if my info is correct

I think these are skirmish scale. Like a platoon, with HMG, mortar, and a tank, and a gun are plenty.

So if I buy Bolt Action I could get...
An action figure x 2 (one German, one British)
A tank
A building
A ship
Some shrubbery
I'm almost tempted now.
Perhaps two boxes of infantry with metal command figures would clinch the deal for me.
Would the figures come ready painted, as the art work suggests?

The figures not only come pre-painted, they also actually shoot bullets. And... a first in metal miniatures - are POSEABLE after they are painted.

All for the price of an Osprey hardback. This, folks, is THE DEAL of the CENTURY!

I like the idea for the model! I don't want some daft action pose, that won't fit in with anything. Can't wait for the rules and army lists. Iv'e got one British section painted, more than I've finished in 6 years of playing Gdub games lol.

Errr all the Bolt Action SS are in action poses....

[BlessMyBeard]

Theres a big difference in action poses though. A man aiming a gun is great, a man jumping, swinging his arms dual wielding grenades = bad. Will post my section soon, just need to add grass to the bases. Just started using Vallejo, such nice paints!

[mikeland]

The cover so should've been a 'Commando' comic-style Tommy with gritted teeth, flinging his last grenade!

Now that would be awesome!

Round here in our group that will equal...maybe 10+ tanks each, back in disposable heroes I could field 3 king tigers, 3 tigers and 3 panzer IV, I even planned to have 3 jadgtigers and wished somebody would do a jadgpanzer L70

I doubt things will change, 1 tank per platoon?, no no no no, 10 tanks per platoon I think

[canadasteve]

The rules dont let you field more than one tank per platoon KT. So to get round that you field more than one platoon.

Or ignore the platoon list entirely, or alter it a little, don't really feel like painting a platoon of men for every car or panzer I take, 2 per would of been better.

Our store owner said he had 8-10 tiger tanks, I think it was tigers, but no matter the tank I don't think he is going to do that many men, especially not when he also has a british 30 corp army.

And what about our staffer with his train and railgun, how many platoons is that
