Bolt Action battle report: the curious battle of the time traveling troopers

A few weeks ago I managed to join my first game of Bolt Action (second if you count the demo game I played years ago). We ran a three player, objective based game. It pitted the US Airborne versus the early war German Afrikakorps versus my late war, losing the War Germans (I should read up on a more proper history at some point (or not)). As Bolt Action is a historical wargame we had to find a proper background to dress up our objective based scenario. No need to worry about a back story! I (quite often) work in marketing, so let's get the Mark Felton tune rolling and get ready for: the curious battle of the time traveling troopers...

To add to the realism of this Bolt Action story, I followed a 'make your pictures look like WW2 pictures tutorial'. This was in no way to hide the fact that I played with unpainted models.

Bolt Action US Airborne infantry drops by

Today was a rather auspicious day to put the finishing touches on this unit. I only realized it was the 6th of June when I took a quick painting break and decided 'the hell with it, let's throw out a quick blog just because of that. In short here's a small bunch of Bolt Action US Airborne troops by Warlord Games.

One of the interesting features of Bolt Action armies is that you can make most models out of the standard sprue.
