    I am thinking of getting into Bolt Action.I M interested in playing in the Pacific Theatre. Are there options to play native troops? Like people from Java, Dayaks, or New Guinea? Are there rules for native weapons like bows, spears, swords?

     

    Thank you

    Empire in Flames threatre book has a Native Irregulars squad available to a number of armies, armament is rifles with an SMG option for the NCO rather than native weapons.

    Also, the New Guinea campaign book has an option to take Papuan tribesmen for the Australians, similar to the rules in Empires. I have a native irregular section for my Japanese, with good results so far.
