Clad in their thick winter gear, ready to fight the Allies in the snowy forests of the Ardennes, these die-hard German paratroopers are a force to be reckoned with!
This starter army gives you everything you need to field a battle-ready force of Fallschirmjäger in winter equipment for games of Bolt Action. At its core is a strong Rifle Platoon with three full squads of paratroopers, backed up by Sniper and Panzerschreck teams – this flexible formation is capable of taking and holding objectives, and is the heart of any Bolt Action force.
Backing up the Rifle Platoon is a trio of powerful supporting formations. The Heavy Weapons Platoon provides both direct fire in the form of a brace of Medium Machine Guns, and high-explosive death from on high with its Medium Mortar, while the small but powerful Artillery Platoon gives the force some serious anti-tank punch from the PaK 40 anti-tank gun!
Rounding out the force is the Armoured Platoon, bringing both wheels and tracks to the battlefield. The Sd.Kfz 223 command armoured car has excellent mobility, and leads the way for the mighty StuG III G assault gun, equally capable of blasting enemy infantry and vehicles.
With these four platoons, you get a great core force that can be used on the tabletop right away, and serve as the basis for a large and versatile collection. The Fallschirmjäger are a powerful, determined army in Bolt Action, and can make use of a wide variety of tactics and units – this set is the perfect way to start your collection!
