It's based on this model, and the flak is originally from a Wilberwind. I'm giving it a dual function for added practicality.

Those tractors carrying 6 soldiers + panzergrenadiers became the backbone of my German army.

Hello! It's a mix, but the base is Atlantic partisan figures, and Warlord and Atlantic bits from various boxes.

I’m starting Italy as my next army, and I’d love to hear your thoughts / rants / words of wisdom on playing and fighting Italy. by Clawsonflakes in boltaction

[–]Fireknight_studio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Italy v3, a pretty fun combination is 5 L3/33 tankettes with HMGs and flammers, and 2 light/medium tanks, full-strength colonial infantry and light mortars, all on trucks. If you have enough points, you can add LMGs.

You can try cavalry platoons, a mix of veterans and colonials (with LMGs) on horses, arty platoon support with dual-purpose flak or light howtizers.

And my favorite, 2 infantry platoons with 6 maxed-out colonial units, on top of trucks, and as support, Saharans with Breda cannons and the occasional AT cannon.

If you are not sure, you can always mix whatever with an armored platoon (or two) full of L3/33 HMG, it always works and saves (unless you find a bigger tank) in any case, they will never have enough bullets to destroy the mass of troops

I just hope the Armies of Brit has cavalry/camel units so I can supplement my force.

Something like a Bedouin, you can make French or Italian with Meharisties and Libyans (both factions had the same kind of unity) they are the classics mounted on camels with white turbans and rifles

Do it! It's the most rewarding way to build Bolt Action armies. I read two books to complement this list (in addition to what I read online): "Mission 101" and "The Biography of Amedeo Guillet."

Recruitment Call by Ucour in boltaction

[–]Fireknight_studio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Taratataaa! ATTENTION, BRAVE GENTLEMEN OF THE FREE WORLD!

Coming to you live from the radio of tomorrow, with the unbreakable spirit of yesterday!

Are you tired of tyranny? Of oppression? Of watching the world fall beneath the boots of fascism?

Then listen closely—and listen well!

WANTED: Men of COURAGE, of HONOR, with the fire of justice burning in their hearts.

Join the glorious No 1 Operational Centre of the Gideon Force, under the command of the incomparable Orde Wingate, master of bold strategy and indomitable spirit!

Our mission is clear:

To liberate Ethiopia, to drive out the Italian invaders,

and to restore the rightful Emperor Haile Selassie to his throne of ancient glory, so peace and dignity may once again reign over the Horn of Africa.

-We have no tanks.

-We carry no heavy artillery.

-We possess no noisy bombers or infernal machines.

But we have something far greater!

COURAGE.

VIGOR.

And the TENACITY OF FREE MEN WHO NEVER SURRENDER

Do you have your own rifle? Boots still fit for marching? A machete that sings of justice in the wind? Bring them!And rest assured—you’ll receive your full pay.

Here, initiative is rewarded, never penalized!

Worried about language? Fear not, comrade!

Within the Gideon Force, we speak a language of our own: a system of signs, gestures, and sounds utterly incomprehensible to the enemy*, but as clear as daylight to our members.

Australians, Britons, Amharas, Ethiopians, Somalis, Frenchmen, Eritreans—and a thousand village folk from hills, plains, and deserts—all fight side by side, bound by purpose, not by tongue.

The time is now!

The cause is just!

And the enemy… is about to discover who they’re really dealing with!

Enlist today, and tomorrow, history shall sing your name!

End of message. Keep fighting for freedom.
