Join us as Darren- who describes himself as a ‘newbie’ to Bolt Action- talks about what has encouraged him to make the jump from new player to new event organiser, and what it is about the ‘Combat Patrol’ game format that has him and other players excited to play Bolt Action with smaller forces in dynamic games!

    EP27: The Black Death Kickstarter

    Podcast EP27: The Black Death Kickstarter Join Dan and Rex in this interesting episode as we interview Steffan from Flank March Miniatures about his currently running ‘The black death’ Kickstarter for 3D printable 28mm WW2 Soviet Naval Infantry STL Files. Soviet Naval Infantry aren’t normally on top of everyone’s list when thinking about a new WWII wargame army, but we found the whole topic hugely interesting, and this podcast has trigged us to order several Osprey books and a whole lot of web research to go along with our little men. We hope you enjoy our journey into Soviet Naval Infantry, check out the Kickstarter here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/flankmarch/black-death As we progress with painting our sample STL’s Images will show here and will be updated as we continue with our projects: https://www.valhallagames.net/ep27 (..and sorry about Rex’s audio!, should be fixed next time)

Will the allies get a foothold in the soft underbelly or will Italy kick them off, back into the Mediterranean? Perhaps more importantly will the Primosole bridge book scenarios and terrain stack up against the expectation of the veteran Bolt Action players of Western front gamers in Sydney Australia? Game on…

    EP24: A chat with Jon Russell of Warlord Games fame In this bumper episode, we are joined by Jon Russell of Warlord Games fame. In addition to his dedicated work for Warlord, Jon is a multifaceted wargamer and also veteran of many years service. In this episode we spend time learning about Jon's wargaming pedigree, before learning more about his role at Warlord, the writing of 'Bolt Action: Korea', and Jon shares with us what he can about what Bolt Action V3 might look like, and the ‘Raiders Attack!’ Supplement that still has much life left in it. All this plus Warlord event support, balance in tournaments and other definitely non-controversial(!), highly entertaining and informative topics. Sit back and enjoy a chat with Jon, and us, we hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
