Written by industry legend Alessio Cavatore, and built around the beloved and renowned Order Dice system, Bolt Action: Third Edition is the fast-paced game of World War II combat that puts you in command of platoons of infantry, heavy weapons, and vehicles on battlefields all across the world. Simple and easy to learn, but with limitless tactical potential, Bolt Action will give you endless hours of fun, fulfilling gameplay!

As well as the rules for playing games of Bolt Action, this mighty tome also includes army lists for Great Britain, Germany, the United States of America, Imperial Japan, and the Soviet Union, allowing you to jump right into the action as soon as your copy arrives, alongside quick-reference tables and a full index, as well as gorgeous full-colour illustrations, and detailed background on both the Second World War in general, and particular actions and campaigns of note – perfect inspiration for your collection! The intuitive platoon selector system allows you to tailor your collection to suit any mission, while the new scenario generation system ensures that no two games need ever be the same. Finally, a whole host of additional optional special rules allow you to create your own unique tabletop battlefields to fight over.

Alongside this beautiful hardback book you’ll also receive a webstore exclusive special figure – Medal of Honor recipient Francis S Currey! This legendary US soldier was awarded the highest American military honour for a feat of courage and valour during the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944, where he would disable numerous German tanks, rescue several wounded comrades, and single-handedly stop a powerful German advance in its tracks. Rendered in crisply detailed Warlord Resin, this exclusive special figure depicts Currey in the thick of the action, and comes with two different weapon options – a rifle, complete with anti-tank grenade, and a bazooka.

Product Description

The 2nd edition offers the same fantastic World War II gameplay with its exciting order dice system and mixed armies of infantry, tanks and artillery.

Key New Features

Officers activate other units! Used cleverly, this creates a huge tactical shift as you can order multiple units to fire or advance in concert.

Big Explosions! HE fire now uses templates to determine damage - your opponent had better spread out his troops to avoid carnage!

Armed Transports! Once your squad has piled out of its halftrack, the driver can speed around and unleash a hail of lead at the enemy!

Player Feedback! We've listened carefully to the community and taken advantage of the thousands of battles you've played to improve the game in dozens of other ways.

New Army List

The main rulebook now includes a fifth army list - adding Imperial Japan to Germany, Great Britain, USA and the Soviet Union - giving you even more choice for your army.

Special Figure

As you would expect we have a fantastic new figure specially made and FREE for those ordering the rule book direct from the Warlord Webstore: General George Smith Patton Jr.

General George Smith Patton Jr. (November 11, 1885 – December 21, 1945) was a senior officer of the United States Army, who is perhaps best known for his leadership of the United States Third Army in France and Germany following the Allied invasion of Normandy in June 1944. A perfect commander for your US armies, from the Mediterranean and on into the European Theaters in Bolt Action.
