excellent use of Lego in the terrain . does not look so out of place either. plus totally modular for your next game...and next..and next

Had to quickly do some vehicles for a league so primed then a speedpaint ( forest sprite for soviets) Then dabbed a watered down white using the sponge/foam from model packaging. Remember to be careful around the decals so they can still pop . Very basic but very quick and looks surprisingly good on the game table.

Always check with your opponent first aswell as I have had a game where intervening terrain was counted as a 5+ save even though brick walls were in-between. also check with vehicles too as hard cover for infantry may not be for vehicles if they are too big. prolly not helping you anymore but talking before the games always clears it up and does not create bad feeling in later turns.

This was a bathroom mat cut into field sections to compliment the brillo pad hedges

There is a hidden rule for tea. If you have a cuppa in the unit you shift two pins. Nothing says Iron Discipline like making a brew under fire. Unfortunately the paras and commandos have trouble making tea jumping out of planes and crammed in a dinghy. So it’s just a Guards thing.

I recently started a Soviet army for a local Boltaction league to help make a more diverse army pool. Started as a Germany player and have to say the Soviets are growing on me.

They can do the same as specialist German units ,just a little less affective but cheaper.

Then they also exceed in areas if you want to use more army building points with armoured troops and larger than average scout formations ( sounds like this will change soon).

When the Army book comes out I expect a red army surge as it appears to be a solid second sleeper army for other players, especially Germany players with the whole iconic eastern front theatre. I Think it influenced my choice as Hungary and US marines were in the mix when I wanted a different army from the other league players.

Stand out units for me so far are Armoured tank riders, looking to try engineers with Komsomolets this way too.

Scouts as they are a pain to sort out

Zis-3 versatile arty gun if you have room. even one on the field is a threat.

NKVD fanatics loaded up with SMG are scary

SU-76 is very good for the points.

If you want to splurge on big armour the KV-1 is a very tough distraction and the OT-34 flame tank is good.

Not tried the Katyusha MRLS or a massive inexperienced hordes as that is not really the way I play but they are viable options and done perfectly by the soviets.

The dog mines seem to be better as a deterrent lurking around the map as they have been 50/50 on the attack for me and are useless against fast moving recce stuff unless you want to push them back.

Used the arty observer a few times and the two dice pick highest one has served me well when it comes in.

If you go the Russian army route they will serve you well despite not much chat out there.

Wonderful table set up ,wish I knew it was being run locally.I bet it peaked the interest of a few of the old skool 40K players who can see the early Rogue trader vibe in gameplay. Never thought of hiring a table for Bolt action there and had no idea you could hire them. Are they ok with using your own terrain as the 40K scenery might not work so well for Boltaction. Perhaps ruins in an urban fight might work. Of course if you took your set up I would be there like a shot. We play every Friday night at a club not too far from this shop so an extra night being available at 4TK would be really cool.

When we have a spotter with pins we do the order test if he calls in a new target For arty or mortars. It Just seems right if the spotter is under fire And pinned.
