Battle For Poland

Bolt Action 1939 Poland with the Kid this afternoon.   750 points per side.

The Germans:


The Poles (wearing British uniforms and borrowing a Daimler for a TKS tankette, and the ever-present Chi-Ha as a 7TP):


Some pics from the game:




Mortars are so amazing in Bolt Action!  Plus I love these figures!

Bolt Action French

Next to playing with Britains Deetails, I find it very enjoyable organizing my toys into gameable forces.   Here is my French battlegroup for Bolt Action:




Chi-Ha(s) doubling as R-35's!


And beautiful Legionnaires!  This range of Deetails has always been one of my most favourites - they have seen action from 1860's Mexico to 1940 France.  Next stop - North Africa 1942!

Britains' Jeep versus Kubelwagen


Another great Toy Fair today.   Happily brought a Kubelwagen and a Jeep home.  Naturally, they had to put immediately into action - Bolt Action!





In turn five, the Kubelwagen decides not to Recce Away from the HMG of the Jeep.  Big mistake!


Jeep 1, Kubelwagen 0.
