French Infantry section
As part of our refocus on the French we have put the French Infantry Section in a 10 man box making it easier to build up your army section by section.
If you are new to the French this supplement for Bolt Action covers the armies of France, Poland, Greece, Norway, Holland and Belgium that stood against the German Blitzkrieg, as well as the resistance forces that sprung up in the aftermath of occupation.
All copies of the book ship with the free and exclusive figure of the decorated French resistance fighter Simone Segouin (also known under the nom de guerre ‘Nicole Minet’).
Paul Hicks has sculpted the miniature and I am sure you will agree he has done a cracking job to capture her likeness as seen in the photograph below.
