Naval Infantry … always fun to play with. I wonder who is the best?

Don't tell 'im pike!

Do Bolt Action have special rules for their characters?

Scenario options get better:

Add some Commando and RN sailor figures and it'll be a classic.

MH Dee22 Oct 2014 4:36 a.m. PST

Gotta get these. My upcoming Last levy force need them!

Great figures, full of character, and cool for Pulp and RPG stuff too.

My mind went here… grin

Ah yes, Doug Mclure

Yes, was just thinking of that. I've programmed Land That Time Forgot as part of a season of SF films here. Showing as a matinee this Sunday!

SFC Retired22 Oct 2014 5:14 a.m. PST

Hope they will be at Fall In?

German Seaman.

Looks good – and great for the Doug Mclure movie!

Outside that, how often were naval infantry used – Norway when those destroyers were bottled up by Warspite? Any other examples?

(However…the inner 14 year old me is still snickering at "German Seaman".)

You always need German sailors and these look great. In fact mine are on there way now. Good job guys.

I know I'm the kind of customer that makes manufacturers gnash their teeth in rage and frustration because nothing is ever good enough, but I feel as if there are too many submariners in that pack. Especially when you consider Brigade Games ( link , link and link ) and Artizan ( link and link ) already do submariners. What I'd like to see is naval infantry in the double-breasted jacket. These would be more proper for Danzig, Dieppe, Norway. I freely admit to being an early-war geek. That said, these figures are great for defense of Berlin, and I'll probably wind up buying them.

As will I (for Berlin).

"The land that Time forgot, "one of my favorite movies. Shooting dinosaurs with an MP-18. Wrong war for these bolt action figures, but some of them could be used. The ones noted above by Jeff would be better. nevertheless I will get this set to use for some German volunteers in the VBC W, or perhaps for a skirmish game against dad's Army in the very early WW2 period. I also might put them to work in my skull Island game.

My favorite line from TLTTF, "You can never go back "
