Welcome to my Bolt Action project log!
I've been playing table top games for years, mainly
40k, and I recently decided to dive in to Bolt Action. I got my hands on the Band of Brothers starter kit and have begun assembling the minis starting with the German grenadiers. I got this set not only because it was a good deal, but because I don't know of any Bolt Action players in my area (though the local game store tells me they have a few players who show up now and again). For now I have a friend or two who want to give the game a go once I have everything put together.
I'll be using this thread to catalogue my progress as I build this kit and a gaming table themed around a rural village or farm. I've ordered a few odds and ends for the project and found a store that has a great selection of miniature scenery so I'll be putting this together over the next month or so. I plan to expand my respective Wehrmacht and Airborne forces as well, possibly even adding in some British elements later on.
Here is where we are at as of today:
So far I am mostly enjoying putting the Warlord miniatures together. They are, however, a bit lacking in terms of variety and some of the arms are a bit frustrating to work with. Flash lines weren't too bad overall and the plastic is hard enough to prevent the weapon barrels from warping which I was worried about. We'll see how I feel about these minis after I build the remaining 29 troops and the Sdkfz.
If anyone who checks out my thread lives in or around the
St. Paul, Minnesota area please feel free to
PM me or leave a reply as I would be happy to set up a game sometime!
Thanks for droppin' in!
