    Well. Without any real knowledge of the game I ordered the following:

    Sturmtiger
    Waffen-SS support group
    Get Started with Bolt Action : Waffen-SS

    This seemed a legit start to get things going.
    Where can I find those hitler youths for example?
    And which lists would you recommend me using?
    (so I can look for the specific book or books I need)

    Thanks again. 🙂

    On it’s way are:
    https://store.warlordgames.com/products/waffen-ss-support-group
    and
    https://store.warlordgames.com/products/get-started-with-bolt-action-waffen-ss
    plus the Sturmtiger of course.
    I have the Rattenkrief Stalingrad box too. How I got lured into BA…So add 6 models Grenadiere.

    The panzerschrek is no good? Why is that? What do you use as AT? (PaK40? Marder? StuG? Pz IV?)
    Thanks again.

    Given what I have (the Box “Rattenkrieg Stalingrad” -> How I got addicted/lured into this)
    plus what is on the way:
    The “get started with Waffen-SS”, the “Waffen-SS Support group” bundles containing:
    Waffen-SS Box Set
    Waffen-SS Sniper, Flamethrower and Panzerschreck Teams (1943-45)
    2 officers
    1 Medic
    2-man Forward Observer team
    1 medium mortar team
    1 MG42 MMG team
    Armies of Germany Supplement
    FREE A5 Bolt Action rulebook
    Order Dice – Black
    Pin Markers Frame

    Plus the Sturmtiger of course.

    Given all this; what would be a next logical step?
    A panzerschrek is apparently not a very good choice. Why is that?
    Do you need another form of AT? (PaK40? Marder? StuG? Something else?)

    Is there something else that would add value to what I have?
    (miniatures/boxes and/or books)

    Thanks a bunch in advance.

    Thanks for the ansers. Much appreciated.
    A few more questions now though:

    Regardless of the 19 or 28 pt-cost; one box of Soviet Yak1 Squadron is enough to get started, no?

    Is the addition of an ace like Lydia Litvya something worth adding in a starting purchase?

    Yak should cost 28?
    I have no idea what it costs now.
    Why do you feel it is costed incorrectly?
    (and is it not unbalancing the game; are you suggesting another nation would be ‘better’?)

    re; coming from X-wing. I do no think said game translates exceptionally well o BRS.
    But I do think spatial awareness and tactics will help.
    (I hope so anyway 😉 )
