Short answer – by RAW (rules as Written… NO!)
Long answer – If you can justify it any then any non heavy tank can be taken, however the way the PDF is written transports & Tows are a subsection of Vehicles and the specific – only common vehicles can be taken – overrides the generic ..anything not 9+ or worse can be taken.
there’s pictures of…[Read more]

I can think of multiple reasons…
One is actually the same reason as most companies have removed their forums – GDPR and other privacy laws – you want the articles to be open to every one and easily read which means you either have to allow anonymous posting (BAD IDEA!) or you have to put vairious measures in place.
Another is you want an up…[Read more]

Nat replied to the topic Firearms Issues in the forum Bolt Action 9 months, 4 weeks ago
The following two points are essential for understanding Bolt Action:
1) Bolt Action isnt a historical simulation game – its a game of the film /comic of history – this is true of ALL Warlords games.
2) All the stats are homogenised to give a feel rather than accuracy, and to make the game easier to play.Also.. .v3 is just tweaks of earlier…[Read more]

Any one know of any companies that sell after market metal , brass or resin Panzer 3/4 type or T-34 style track ? I’m replicating some Eastern front Panzers and need a lot more track pieces than come in the Warlord or Rubicon stowage sets . Thanks

3) An FG42, the cutting-edge fallschirmjaeger weapon, is an automatic rifle, not an assault rifle. The FG42 fires a full-length rifle cartridge, just like a BAR, and has an integral bipod, just like a BAR.
I couldn’t agree with you more. In fact, the FG42 was better than the BAR, but regarding Bolt Action (or any game), the FG42 and BAR should be…[Read more]

Anybody else notice that the comments have been removed from older articles on the Warlord Games website? And that new articles don’t allow comments at all? I wonder why this is….

L.T. Russell started the topic Firearms Issues in the forum Bolt Action 10 months ago
I wrote a topic a while back about what I considered to be problems with how certain firearms are portrayed in Bolt Action. It appears that no real corrections were made in Version 3, and now some weapons are more messed up than ever. I’m wondering if anyone at Warlord Games has the slightest idea how firearms actually work….
1) Why don’t p…[Read more]

Two jointed questions:
The PDF says that Partisans can take “Any vehicle”, does this mean that we have access to armored transports (of corse with the unreliable trait)?
And if for some reason we do not are we able to so is there the option to take a kubblewagon and upgrade it with a mmg?

L.T. Russell replied to the topic Armies of Germany and Common Transport Vehicles in the forum Bolt Action 10 months ago
I’ve noticed that only the US and Brits are allowed to have “heavy” transport trucks that can carry more than 12 men. Apparently no one at Warlord Games can figure out that the Germans had “heavy” 5 ton trucks too….

My friends and I use historical settings and judge the quality of the gaming by comparing original outcome with the game ones.
So if in our AMC Komet breakthrough games Komet survives its a German win. If it is lost its a British, even if all RN vessels are lost.

No. You can only shoot at the moving unit that triggers the ambush.

Ken Jacobsen started the topic Splitting Fire in the forum Bolt Action 10 months ago
The rules state that units equipped with a 1 shot weapon can split fire (pg. 79, pg.102). What if that unit is on Ambush, and shoots a Faust at a vehicle that moves into range; can the other figures in that unit fore their small arms at a different unit (one that didn’t trigger the Ambush)?
