Bolt Action: WW2 rules ... soon?

[Vogless]

I'll keep an eye on the FB page for any news, but it's been scarce.

Like I said, I'm guessing that the deal is a under such tight security due to the partnership with Osprey. No rub on them, I'm just guessing that a partnership like that brings a little formality with it.

I REALLY want to run a demo game at NEXT year's Adepticon with the rules. I have high hopes for them!

New to the forum but we have been lucky enough to have a play test of the new rules due out in July.
An AAR can be found here.

Thanks for sharing Stu! So I guess the BA WW2 rules will have Pacific theatre, then?

[Vogless]

Thanks, S!

A LITTLE news is better than NO news! Hurray!

How's you base those jungle plants? Also, where'd you get the Palm trees?

BTW,

Welcome to the forums!

Thanks Guy's - from what I understand the Army lists will cover all the main stream army lists, with I guess more detail for the popular arena's...... I don't think the Far East is one of those, given how many people at our club play North West Europe as opposed to other arena's..
Still with the new Warlord Japs who knows

The Jungle was made using some of the more battered TSS terrain blocks I had, I counter sunk them with raw plugs from your usual DIY store and the inserted aquatic plastic plants in to the Raw plugs. You can get these from most pet stores.
It takes about 20 mins to complete the task on gaming nights, but gives enables me to fill the table, it's very robust and people can lean on it and it does not crush or have bits break off it, the usual damge you pick up over time.

The Palm Trees from H G Walls in the US sadly no longer available, they are really effective and are constructed out of coloured paper and a cocktail stick.

Hi Stu

Welcome to the forum and thanks for posting this little teaser. I love playing WW2 and am eagerly awaiting the release of these rules. The blog looks good too. Shared the link on my club's forum
