Just wondering if the Bolt Actions rules
would be easy enough to tweak so as to add in some
Weird World War II elements.

I think so – I have tweaked them for modern and ACW/Musket era so far, as well as WW2 zombies.

Yes, absolutely.

It is a very open, rather generic system. Would not be difficult to make work in many settings. Only the points system with the troop qualities would be a challenge to work out.

P.S. It would be nice if folks posted their conversions and tweaks, Bolt-Action looks like it will be many folks first historical wargame, so letting it be a gateway to the wider world of wargaming can only be a good thing.
