I find Bolt Action to be a very different game to Flames of War. The very heavy emphasis on small scale games and infantry makes it a bit closer to a very simplified 2nd edition 40k set in WW2. Despite those differences the pinning mechanic and the random order dice makes it quite a unique game where you have to consider very different strategies than other I go you go games.djdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11309918855550883333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3752757614241916720.post-84865529568395280782013-01-14T11:31:07.033+11:002013-01-14T11:31:07.033+11:00Great overview, sounds like it might be worth chec...Great overview, sounds like it might be worth checking out.

They are even trying out a tournament at Cold Wars this year at 1000 pts. I had made a list of Vet Fallschirmjager with 22 Assault Rifle's but it was frowned upon. I was told I was thinking too much 40k! Oh well.B-Ryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15798113149108916895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3752757614241916720.post-24706472300925777672013-01-13T20:25:55.491+11:002013-01-13T20:25:55.491+11:00Looks like a good game was played.
