I am familiar with Al Morrison's VBCW hack of Bolt Action but WLG has published enough lists to make it mostly redundant. I recently wrote lists for the British Union of Fascists using the Italian list and the Communist Party of Great Britain using the Partsans list from France & The Allies. Let me know what you think!

I really love the idea of using the Italian blackshirt entry for British blackshirts -- especially the super swingy Non Testati rule, which could expose the fascisti as all-talk bully boys (Shirkers) or psycho diehards (Fanatics) once they are under fire. For those wondering what a "standard bearer" is, this is a rule I am porting over from Mr. Morrison's homebrew. Basically, you get a banner for 13 pts and all friendly units with LOS to it get +1 morale when making a leadership test to take a rally order. Love that rule for VBCW! The colonial troops under the Italian list are interesting because (a) they are Inexperienced, which is unusual for a cavalry unit in BA, and (b) they are Tough Fighters. If my infantry sections represent the BUF in town, these guys are my hayseeds: keen amateurs and burly.

I believe a Partisans list can also take a vehicle from another list (although it gains Unreliable) and I plan to give these Reds some kind of bizarre interwar contraptions, just not sure what as of yet.
