Looks a lot like A&A, but with Bolt Action tactical battle integration if you want it

it is interesting that there's multiple 'theater' maps that let you zoom in on specific parts of the conflict

UCG was big into BA a while back. Not sure if he still plays though.

it seems to be WW2 for people who want to play Twilight Imperium with their Bolt Action figs

Haven’t seen this - bolt action is just about to make a reappearance at club with a mini league starting up

Was happy with LOTR especially as I’d sold all the bolt action stuff but I’m making a small German force and building cautiously invade interest drops again

If the new GW LOTR stuff hits before the league starts it’ll disappear under a mound of the new stuff from the new series

I remember seeing some of BA figs that you had painted and they were pretty damn spiffing.  :bigthumb:

Yeah she’s from the white council legendary legion and possibly the vanquishers now available on made to order having gone out of production a while back

The new Galadriel is all fresh and young in plate armour

cheers buddy - its more a testament to the models and these are some of Warlords most recent releases so theyre a far cry from the old germans with almost a nose and just dents for eyes - which is why i picked them

Im painting up the quad cannon and three crew that sits on the back of the flat bed

It is

7.1 - no one makes a 7.2 at this scale which is the armoured cab version - I pay the points for the .2 and just let them know before battle commences

The quad flak puts out 8 high explosive shots with a one inch template - enough to destroy a full squad of men in one turn
