Bolt Action WWII Waffen SS Weapons Teams Figures 1:56 Model Kit

Infantry weapons teams are a crucial element in any Bolt Action army, offering great tactical flexibility. Among the most common are sniper teams, anti-tank teams, and flamethrower teams, each presenting unique challenges for your opponent.

The Panzerschreck, a German version of the American bazooka, was first encountered in North Africa. It fired a large shaped-charge rocket projectile and had such a powerful back-blast that early teams had to wear protective capes and masks. Later, a blast shield was added to the weapon, giving it a distinctive look. By 1944, the Panzerschreck and disposable Panzerfaust had replaced the Panzerbüchse 39 anti-tank rifle.

During the battle of Stalingrad, Russian snipers inflicted heavy casualties on the German forces, prompting the Germans to train and equip their own marksmen. They used a variety of rifles, such as the KAR-98K and the Gewehr 43, all equipped with high-quality ZF39 telescopic sights and precision ammunition. Flamethrowers, known as Flammenwerfer, were also widely used throughout the war, especially against buildings and fortifications.

In the later stages of the war, the Germans developed a smaller, lighter flamethrower called the Eintossflammenwerfe, which could only be fired once. It is unclear if this weapon was ever used in combat. Each box includes six Warlord Resin™ figures, plastic bases, and three order dice.

Step into the world of World War II combat on your tabletop using model troops, tanks, dice, and the Bolt Action rules. Players must have painted model troops representing their chosen armies for realistic gameplay. Battle scenarios dictate deployment and victory conditions, allowing players to experience a small portion of the epic conflict that was World War II.

Building, painting, and playing with the models is just as enjoyable as playing the game itself. Pit your wits against your opponents and immerse yourself in one of the greatest conflicts in history - World War II.
