Now that we have our Bolt Action WWII game, and the various nations are having their army supplements released, we are taking the opportunity to bring our miniatures ranges into line with them. We've done this for a handful of packs so far, but now we are going to ramp this up by dealing with a new army regularly.
The first of these will be the U.S. Airborne. Read on to find out what has changed…
The first thing to notice, and the biggest change, is the contents of the Screaming Eagles boxed set, which not only has a different mix of U.S. Airborne figures, but also now includes a full-color decal sheet for the 101st Airborne! The box now contains:
- HQ: one officer and two paratroopers
- HQ: one forward observer
- twelve-man squad: NCO and two paratroopers with Thompson SMG, two-man .30 cal light machinegun team, seven paratroopers with rifles or carbines
- two-man Bazooka team
- 60mm mortar and two crew
- full-color waterslide decal sheet
The rest of the range has also been reorganized to make it more in tune with our Bolt Action army lists. You can see them all here:
Next to get this treatment will be the British Airborne – the Red Devils!
